Unfortunately due to insurance requirements we are unable to offer free sessions at this time. If you are unsure about if your child would enjoy soccer and want to speak with someone from our Board of Directors, please reach out to us via email at neuscsoccer@outlook.com to discuss further.
I would really like my child to play, but we cannot afford it. Is there any financial assistance available.
Yes. NEUSC is a community club and we believe that anyone who wants to play soccer should have the opportunity. NEUSC has flexible payment options for those who need to pay in smaller, more affordable installments. If this is not an option, then the NEUSC has partner organizations ( links below ) who can offer financial assistance. This can be done confidentially through the Club, so please do not hesitate to contact us, you can email us at neuscsoccer@outlook.com to discuss our various options.
