Grand Masters Division (60+)
The Grand Masters Division is designed for players aged 60 and over who want to continue playing competitive, organized soccer in an environment that prioritizes sustainability, safety, and enjoyment of the game.
This division adapts the structure of the game to better fit the realities of long-term play, while preserving meaningful competition and a strong sense of team identity.
What Defines the Grand Masters Division
Grand Masters soccer focuses on smart play, spacing, and teamwork.
Key characteristics include:
- Reduced number of players
Games are played with fewer players on the field, creating more space and reducing physical congestion while keeping the game engaging and competitive. - Shorter game length
Matches are structured with shorter halves to support recovery and consistency over the season. - No slide tackling
This reduces injury risk while maintaining physical, competitive play. - Age-appropriate competition
Every player on the field is 60 or older, allowing matches to be decided by positioning, communication, and experience rather than pace alone.
Competitive and Sustainable
The Grand Masters Division provides real competition without the physical demands of full-size, open-format play.
Players benefit from:
- Organized and well-officiated matches
- A consistent and balanced level of competition
- Teams built around familiarity, trust, and shared experience
- A league culture that values respect, safety, and enjoyment
The format allows players to stay competitive while playing in a way that supports long-term participation.
Keep Playing the Game You Love
The Grand Masters Division exists so players can continue enjoying structured, competitive soccer well into their 60s and beyond.
If you are looking for a league that adapts the game without losing what makes it meaningful, the Grand Masters Division provides a competitive home built for longevity.
