The Goal with the Boys & Girls Clubs - Alaska Soccer program is to provide its Members a safe, healthy, fun, and meaningful experience via regularly scheduled practices and games. The twelve-week season will commence on May 15 and conclude August 5 for U6-U18 teams and commence on June 5 and conclude July 29 for U4 teams. U4 practices will be held Monday evenings with games being held on Wednesday evenings. U6-U8 practices will be held Monday evenings with games being held on Wednesday evenings. U10-U18 practices will be held on Monday and Wednesday evenings with games being held on Thursday evenings for the 2017 season. Games will commence the third week of the season.

Teams will be designated by the Anchorage School District high school zone (or a series of schools) where the team is located. If there are not enough Members to form a team (within the same gender when applicable) in the particular area which the player resides, he/she will have the opportunity to roster with another team in a different area of Anchorage. (If there are not enough players to form at least four teams in a gender specific division, age divisions will be coed). Players and coaches are encouraged to give their team nicknames which are cool and fun! (This program has no affiliation with the Anchorage School District or its individual schools)

Please Note: Members are not restricted to rostering specifically on a team within their high school zone and preferences/special requests for the season may be approved with prior written notice to BGCA Athletics Staff. Additionally, players are required to provide a birth certificate to verify birthdate and encouraged to provide a current physical prior to the first game of the season.

Team sponsorships are a crucial part of any athletic program. Through Team Sponsorships, the Boys & Girls Clubs – Alaska Athletics Department are able to offer scholarships to deserving families, refurbish and replace equipment, provide uniforms, purchase the sports supplies needed for each sport and maintain the fields/facilities.  Additionally, our coaches are able to take advantage of coaching education opportunities through coaching courses that, ultimately, benefit the athletics experience for all children. In return, your business will benefit through brand awareness, image enhancement, possible increased sales, and a return on investment that benefits the community as a whole. 

All Athletes registered to a Boys & Girls Clubs – Alaska Athletics program receive a uniform package (specific to the sport the Athlete is registered for) which will always includes a jersey.  Currently ConocoPhillips is the title Good Sport Sponsor for the Boys & Girls Clubs – Alaska, with their logo being featured on the front of all jerseys. Local Sponsors of BGCA Teams will also be featured on secondary location of the team jersey with prominent visibility of the Sponsor’s name.

In addition to our Sponsors name featured on a BGCA Athletics Team’s jersey, the Boys & Girls Clubs – Alaska will also offer to our Partners:

• Website logo/link placement on our website and any other social media for the duration of the one-year
• One seasonal e-mail blast to BGCA Members participating in that particular sport promoting any specials/news from our Sponsors for that particular month
• Recognition in the Boys & Girls Clubs – Alaska Annual Report
• Plaque with a photograph of the Team your business is sponsoring with expressing our appreciation
