We’ll have a “dress rehearsal” game day on Saturday, August 15, 2020. We’re off the next two weekends as older kids’ tournaments take over the NTH parks. We’re also off Labor Day weekend.
We’ll start our Fall 2020 game day schedule on Saturday, September 12th. We continue with weekly games until we wrap up our fall season the weekend before Thanksgiving.

- We’ll combine girls from both Metro North Park and United Quest Park on game days.
- Coaches will handle roster assignments. We may not be able to honor individual roster / game time requests. Link: schedule requests
Bad weather procedures:
- Rain itself isn’t a problem, but waterlogged fields, lightning or unsafe driving conditions could affect our schedule. For info about how we deal with bad weather, please check our weather link.
Schedule conflicts:
- Please let us know as early as possible about any game day schedule conflicts, including conflicts with travel related to Cobb or Cherokee school systems’ fall break weeks. (E-mail to Ward is the preferred method.) We can work around most conflicts as long as we know about them by the weekend ahead of the game day.
Game formats:
- Our main format will be 5v5 (4 field players, 1 goalkeeper), but we also have two 7v7 games during the season. We’ll play with goalkeepers in 5v5 and 7v7 games. The offside rule may apply in 7v7 games.
DH players:
- We may have some game days when we’ll need some players to play twice, or what we call “DH” (double-header) duty. Link: double-header play
Limited Sunday play:
- All of our game days are currently scheduled on Saturdays.
- If rainouts become an issue, we may schedule Sunday make-up games.
Tournaments:
- We won’t play a pre-season tournament.
- We will play a 1-day in-house tournament (our Fall Finale) on Saturday, November 21st (the Saturday before Thanksgiving).
