MLSGO House League
The MLS GO House League is designed for individual players who want to play soccer without needing to already be part of an organized team. Simply register your player in the appropriate age division, and Adirondack Coast Sports will place players onto House teams and organize league play.
Our goal is to provide a fun, competitive and developmentally appropriate soccer experience for players of all experience levels. House teams are coed and give kids the opportunity to play, develop their skills, meet new teammates and enjoy the game in a positive environment.
What’s Included
- MLS GO uniform — jersey, shorts and socks
- A regular 8-game league schedule, with the goal of approximately one game per week
- Up to four scheduled practices per session
- Organized league scheduling and officials
- Playoffs for U8 and older divisions
- Teams organized and managed through Adirondack Coast Sports
Typical Game & Practice Schedule
We work hard to keep schedules as consistent as possible so families can plan ahead.
U6 - Mondays (5:15 or 6:15)
U8 - Games on Tuesday's (5:15, 6:15, or 7:15), Practices every other Monday
U10- Games on Wednesday's or Friday's (5:15, 6:15, or 7:15), Practices every other Monday
U12 - Games on Thursday's (5:15, 6:15, 7:15, or 8:15 with occasional Tuesday or Wednesday 8:15 games if necessary), Practices every other Monday

House teams receive up to four practices per session, generally scheduled every other Monday.
Our goal is to schedule approximately one game per week, but the schedule may not be perfectly even from week to week. Depending on the number of teams in a division, facility availability and other scheduling considerations, a team may occasionally have a week without a game or a scheduled bye week. In some cases, games may also be distributed differently throughout the session to create the best overall schedule.
These days are our normal scheduling plan, but weather, facility availability, enrollment and other scheduling needs may occasionally require games or practices to be moved.
Who Should Register for House League?
House League is a good fit for players who are registering individually rather than as part of an established team. It welcomes newer players learning the game as well as experienced recreational players who simply want another opportunity to play.
Players do not need to belong to a school, travel or club team to participate. Adirondack Coast Sports forms the teams—you simply register your player.
How House League Competition Works
House teams primarily compete against other House teams. Depending on the number of teams and the needs of each division, they may also play a few Rec/Open teams.
Creating appropriate competition levels is important to a positive player experience, so we work to create matchups that are as balanced and competitive as possible, but it is important to recognize that this can never be guaranteed.
Our Philosophy
Competition is part of sports, but the player experience comes first. We want players to have fun, stay active, improve their skills, develop friendships and learn teamwork, sportsmanship, accountability and respect.
We like to say that our goal is to run youth sports professionally—not create professional youth sports.
A Few Things to Know
Schedules are designed to be as consistent as possible, but weather, facility availability, enrollment, odd numbers of teams and other circumstances can occasionally require changes.
All players must be officially registered and rostered before participating. Families should also review the league rules, equipment requirements, Code of Conduct, weather policy and refund policy before the season begins.
