ABOUT THE PROGRAM
What is the Eagles Rec League?
Charlotte Eagles Rec is a recreational soccer league for boys and girls ages 4–12. Players of every experience level are welcome — from kids who have never touched a ball to those who've played a season or two.
Each week includes one weekday evening practice and one Saturday game. Seasons run 8–10 weeks each spring and fall across three convenient Charlotte-area campuses.
A NOTE ON OUR FAITH
Charlotte Eagles is a Christian sports organization. Our coaches intentionally model positive character and faith-based values in every practice. You don't need to share our faith to participate — but you should know it's genuinely part of who we are.

WHY EAGLES REC
What Sets Us Apart
Any league can put kids on a field. Here's what makes Charlotte Eagles different.
Development, Not Just Wins
Our coaches teach the fundamentals the right way — footwork, game awareness, teamwork — in a low-pressure environment where every child grows at their own pace. Winning is great. Learning is the goal.
Intentionally Faith-Based
We're a Christian organization — and that shapes everything. Coaches model biblical values like respect, encouragement, and humility in every practice and game. Character development is built in, not bolted on.
Coaches Who Genuinely Care
Our coaches are more than instructors — they're invested in your child as a person. They know your kid's name, notice improvement, and build encouragement that carries beyond the final whistle.
Fair, Balanced Teams
Teams are formed thoughtfully so every player is in the right environment to compete and enjoy the game. No stacked rosters. Every child plays every week.
Our program follows the school calendar year (Aug 1 – Jul 31) to assign age groups — aligning with how schools group students by grade, making it easier for families to coordinate.

Interested in Coaching?
Coaching at Charlotte Eagles isn't a side gig — it's a calling. Our coaches are men and women who show up every week to invest in the next generation through discipleship and competition, all for the glory of Jesus Christ.
Why it matters: Research shows that a coach is one of the most influential figures in a young person's life — and 90% of people make significant life decisions before the age of 18. What you do on that field matters for eternity.
No professional coaching experience required. We provide training, support, and a team around you.
