WELCOME TO FALL 2024!

6U-12U Game Schedule Link  --->    Arbuckle Game Schedule 2024.xlsx

The Fall Season is our primary season, with over 250 players ranging in divisions from 6U through 18U.  Registration for the Fall Season usually occurs during the Spring in May/July. To have guaranteed team placement, you should plan to register early, before the early-summer cut-off, otherwise your child will be placed on a wait list.

6U -12U

Practices usually start mid to late August. Regular season games  start just after Labor Day weekend and continue on through the last week in October for 6U and 8U. 10U through 12U teams in good standing will participate in a Regional tournament in early to mid November.  Winners from the Regional tournament have the option of attending an Area tournament.  Teams that win the Area tournament will advance to the Section tournament in early December (usually played in Foster City) and the winner of the Section tournament will advance to the State tournament in March.

All games are held on Saturdays.  If your team is on an Area team, you will be considered a traveling team and will travel to Winters, Esparto/Capay, Davis or Antelope. 


Each player intending on playing in any of the AYSO seasons (Fall or Select) needs to be registered. See the registration tab for more information about registration.
