2016 (U5) Recreational Soccer Soccer
Recreational soccer is a large
component of the Ballistic United Soccer Club with approximately 70% of
all players participating at this level. The primary objective of the
Recreational program is to provide a positive, low-pressure soccer
experience for the youth of our community.
Recreational soccer is the BUSC team option for traditional soccer with the lowest commitment level, both in terms of time and cost.
