So what’s this all about?

The winter adult league is a fundraiser for MAYSL’s youth programs, and it’s designed to be a casual, recreational soccer experience for the greater Oakhurst community of soccer-loving friends. 2026 is its first season.

The season runs for 8 weeks, from Jan 10 to March 1, with games on Saturdays.

Teams are 12-20+ players, coed, 18 and over. Sign up with friends, make your own team, or we’ll be happy to place you on one. Teams should be big enough that players can miss some games – this is supposed to be fun and low-commitment – and should have enough women that they can keep 2 or more on the field during games.

Games will be hosted at the YHS field where MAYSL hosts U12 games, and games will be played 7v7, 8v8, or 9v9, depending on availability at game time.

Season Guide

This is a casual co-ed league. We accept all ages, 18-and-over, so please be mindful that we will have a wide spectrum of physical abilities and soccer skills on the field.

Referees will oversee games whenever possible. If no regular ref is available, we’ll look for experienced players from the league. This should be a safe place for aspiring referees to gain experience in a low-stakes environment.

Practices are optional. Some teams will do it, some won’t – it’s up to each team.

Participation is at your own risk. All players are required to sign a liability waiver.

Pre-Season

  • Soccer cleats and shin guards are required.
  • Team jerseys will be provided by the league.
  • All players must be registered with the league and sign a liability waiver.

Pre-Game

  • The league will provide game balls.
  • Captains should verify they have enough women to keep 2 on the field. If it will be a challenge, look for subs from other teams.
  • Captains should discuss mercy rules.
  • Adjust competition size as appropriate for player availability, skill, and fitness: play 7v7, 8v8, or 9v9.
  • Practices are not league events – practice as you like, or don’t. Up to you where, when, and if.

Rules

  • Substitutions are hockey style: exit the game and return as needed, don’t wait for the ball to be out of play or the ref to acknowledge.
  • Coed: at least 2 women on the game field at all times.
  • Slide tackling is absolutely forbidden.
  • Cleats and shin guards are required. Shoes with a toe cleat are strongly discouraged. Metal cleats are not permitted.
  • Score will be kept by the referees and reported to the league admins. This is all for fun, but so are league standings!

Schedule

Games are 60 minutes, with two 25m halves and a 10m halftime.

Please help games start on time so that delays don’t pile up and force late starts for subsequent games.

« Join the Open Team! »

The 1:15pm slot each week is marked OPEN.

Each week’s open game will be hosted by a different team, whoever has the scheduled Bye. Players from any team are eligible to hop into this last slot of the day and play against the host. The results won’t count for the season record.
