2025 PARPC Girls Spring Soccer Program

This is a recreational soccer program for school aged girls from Kindergarten to Eighth Grade who reside in the Palmyra, Pennsylvania area and surrounding communities. This is a program geared toward learning and fun, with equal time on the field during games for every player.

Do you have a busy schedule? No worries! Just make a note of the days you are unavailable Monday through Friday (games are mostly Saturday morning & early afternoon) and we’ll do our best to accommodate or give you your registration fee back!

GIRLS SOCCER FIRST THROUGH EIGHTH GRADE

Location -Practices held at Ridge Road Park (500 Ridge Road, Palmyra), South Londonderry soccer field next to the Municipal Building & playground (West Market Street, Campbelltown), and Pine Street Elementary soccer field.

Times-Practices will start the week of March 17th (weather permitting) and wrap up mid to late May. Days and times vary each season dependent upon schedule availability noted on registration forms. We balance ability, age, and schedule availability to make the program as balanced as possible for the best experience for our girls. This is done in order to do our very best to leave no athletes behind. You will be notified by coach regarding practice times by March 3rd to begin practices the week of March 17th . * Please note- coaches do not email everyone on the same day, but if you don’t hear by March 3rd and have double checked your SPAM folder with the email you provided to us, please email hhershey@palmyrarec.org or call 717-838-9244 with your child’s name and grade. Be sure to note on your registration the days of the week your athlete is NOT available. Practices will be 2x per week the first 2 weeks of preseason then move to practices 1x per week with a Saturday game for the remainder of the season with a possibility of 1-2 games during the week due to Holidays and possible weather postponements. Picture day is tentatively scheduled for April 5th.

Trying out for PASD or a Travel team? We can accommodate most players! Anyone who tries out and doesn’t make it or would like a different option with us, we can take them- IF they sign up in our “standby” list beforehand and their schedule works with the team available in their age group.

Here’s what you need to do to get on the standby list:

Fill out the paper registration form below (not on active.com).
Write on the top of the registration form “trying out”
Send the registration form into our office at the address or drop box noted below by February 13th at the latest. Do NOT send payment with the registration form, we will just collect later if you decide to play (makes it easier for you and our accounting).
Email hhershey@palmyrarec.org as soon as you know what your status is for season after tryouts.
After tryouts, pay without the late fee if you decide to play with us with a check mailed to PARPC at 325 South Railroad St, Palmyra PA 17078 or put the fee in our tan outside drop box available at the same address anytime, 24/7.
