2026 Fall Soccer League: Micro

Pleasant Dale Park District’s Micro Soccer League is the perfect introductory youth soccer program for preschool athletes ages 3–4! Designed specifically for young children, this beginner-friendly soccer league provides a fun, active, and positive first soccer experience. Players learn essential soccer fundamentals—including footwork, ball control, teamwork, and sportsmanship—while developing confidence and a love for the game.

Led by enthusiastic volunteer parent coaches, each Saturday-only soccer session features a 15-minute instructional practice followed immediately by a 30-minute Micro Soccer game, ensuring consistent skill development in a fun and age-appropriate environment. Prior to the opening week, teams will meet for a brief preseason gathering to get to know teammates, meet their coach, and receive their soccer uniforms.

Give your preschooler a great start in sports with the Pleasant Dale Park District Micro Youth Soccer League—where learning, teamwork, and fun are the goals of every game!


Fall Soccer registration deadline is Sunday, July 12th. Registrations taken after July 12th will be assessed a $20 late fee, will not be allowed buddy requests, and will be responsible for picking up their own jersey from the supplier as needed. Late registration will be open until the league begins OR teams are full.

Note:

*This season, all soccer leagues will move to a standardized reversible jersey. Jerseys are purchased separately and are not included in the league registration fee. This allows for a lowered league registration fee. Once purchased, players may re-use jerseys across multiple seasons.

Jerseys will be handed out by coaches at the first practice when ordered before the registration cutoff date. Players needing jerseys after the registration cutoff can purchase at Santo Sports Store, located at 6312 W 111th St, Chicago Ridge, IL 60415. Families whose children outgrow their jersey may also exchange them at the Equipment Swap held before each season. New jerseys are $20 each.

All players must wear a Pleasant Dale Park District Jersey to participate. Players will also need athletic shoes (preferably molded soccer cleats- no metal spikes!), soccer socks, and shin guards. A ball is also recommended.
