SEASON INFORMATION

2025 summer soccer teams, schedules and other important information will be posted no later than Saturday, June ?.

All practices and games will take place at the MARC complex in Merrill, WI. A field diagram will be provided when teams and schedules for each age division have been set.

Follow us on Facebook (@merrillsoccer) and add merrillsoccer@gmail.com to your email contacts to ensure you stay up-to-date on all things summer soccer!


LEARN. PLAY. GROW.

Practices will begin the second week of July and be included in each team's schedule. In an effort to place increased focus on player and team development (both in skill and knowledge), teams across all divisions will have more practices integrated into their schedule compared to previous seasons.

Coaches across all divisions will be provided with resources to support the increased emphasis on development. They will also be encouraged to incorporate scrimmages with other teams as part of their practice plans, providing players with an opportunity to work on what they've learned outside an official game environment.

This approach also affords us more opportunities to work with our younger/newer referees to ensure they have the hands-on practice they need to learn, grow and be successful.


End-SUMMER JAMBOREE

Save the date! Our annual summer soccer jamboree will take place on Saturday, August 16th this year for U6-U14. Jamboree schedules, format, etc. will be provided with 2025 summer soccer team assignments, schedules and other important information in early June.
