Redwood Soccer
Redwood Junior Soccer League 969G Edgewater Blvd., Suite 110 Foster City, CA 94404 The Redwood Junior Soccer League provides organization and structure for Class 3 competitive youth soccer play on the San Francisco Peninsula (an area from Burlingame to Palo Alto to Half Moon Bay). We are in District 2 of the Northern California Youth Soccer Association (CYSA-N). We are also the Registration League for competitive youth soccer teams in our geographic area that want to affiliate with CYSA-N. We are known as the Redwood League, RedwoodSoccer and RWL. Class 1 teams from Clubs affiliated with the Redwood League may be released to play in the Abronzino League. The Abronziono League is the District 2-wide, Class 1 Playing League. Class 3 competitive soccer is also known as traveling team or classic soccer. The coaches are often paid and the teams select their players via tryouts. Players will often stay on the same team from season to season. Competition is provided for teams from Under 9 (U09) through Under 19 (U19) in single year increments for both boys and girls. Players wishing to play in the Redwood League must first join a team. Teams belong to a member club. The clubs assist in providing coaches, referees and fields. The Redwood League encompasses clubs from Burlingame to Palo Alto to Half Moon Bay. The Fall season is the principal soccer season. It starts in early September and runs through early December. Many teams also play in the Spring season. The Spring season starts in Late March and runs through early June. Spring season is less formal and is considered a developmental period. Many teams will practice year round and participate in tournaments.
The rest of District 2 (south of Palo Alto to Salinas and Monterey) also has a Class 3 playing league called the Delgado League. District 1 which encompasses the San Francisco area has a similar Class 3 playing league called the Alvarez League. Sometimes teams from these geographic areas will petition to play in the Redwood League. Top performing teams can petition and be promoted to Class 1 or premier soccer. Class 1 teams in our geographical area belong to Redwood League and are released to play in the Abronzino League, the District 2 wide Class 1 Playing League.
