Crusaders Soccer Club’s very successful grassroots (recreational) 2021 fall program ends on Dec. 11. Registration for the 2022 grassroots spring program opens on Dec. 15 for all girls and boys born between 2008 and 2018. There will be an early registration discount through Dec. 31. Check the Crusaders website for more information and to register a player for our 2022 spring grassroots program.

A season highlight for our fall grassroots program was our Boys 2008/2009 teams which participated in the Fall 2021 San Diego County I-15 Corridor Recreational League. The league included teams from Crusaders, Rancho Bernardo, Scripps Ranch, Poway, Penasquitos and Escondido. The Crusaders Red Strikers team won the league season and were the tournament champions. Congratulations to The Crusaders Red Strikers.

On Dec. 5 evaluations were held at the Pershing fields for Crusaders’ grassroots all-star teams for players born between 2008 and 2014. The all-star teams will be competing in a tournament in January 2022.

The Crusaders Soccer Club will be holding separate three-day camps for both grassroots and competitive players the week before and after Christmas. More information is on the Crusaders website.

Tryouts for the Crusaders competitive 2022 teams will begin soon. Check the Crusaders Soccer website for more information. Competitive players are coached by licensed and certified coaches.
