Welcome to the CESA Recreation page. Complete program details and registration information for each age group and program can be found on the recreational program tabs to the left.
CESA does allow teams to stay together from Fall to Spring ONLY if players remain in the correct age group.
The only REGISTRATION REQUEST that is guaranteed is PRACTICE FIELD LOCATION. If we cannot assign your player to a team at the field location you requested you will be issued a full refund.
***ALL OTHER REQUESTS are not guaranteed and therefore are not eligible for refunds***
We do our very best to honor your practice day/time requests but it is not always possible. Once teams are full in each practice day/time slots, players will be placed based upon openings on teams in all practice day/time slots.

Uniforms
Official CESA recreation uniform jerseys can only be purchased at Lloyd’s Soccer located at 1018 S. Batesville Rd., Building 4B Greer, SC 29650. The phone number to Lloyd’s Soccer is (864) 848-6805.
PLEASE NOTE: All players MUST wear the official CESA uniform for ALL games. The team listed first (HOME team) on the game schedule will wear the RED official CESA uniform jerseys. The team listed second (AWAY team) on the game schedule will wear the WHITE official CESA uniform jerseys.
Equipment
Shin guards are required for all practices and games. Cleats are not required, but are encouraged.
Players must provide their own soccer ball.
Practices and Games
Practices are held Monday through Friday from either 5:00-6:30 or 6:30-8:00 at our 3 locations: Brushy Creek, MeSA or Wenwood
Games for ALL recreation teams will be on Saturdays.
Coaches
The recreation teams are coached by parent and independent volunteers. The only requirement for our volunteers is that they enjoy working with kids and enjoy helping kids develop on and off the field.
Soccer experience is not a coaching requirement. All coaches are required to obtain a coaching license based on the age group through US Youth Soccer, complete Sexual Abuse Training and complete a Background Check.
CESA strives to place every child on a team who wants to play, but we can only form as many teams as we have coaches for. Not only do we support our volunteer coaches, the success of the club relies heavily on families volunteering!
The volunteer coach is one of the most integral parts of CESA Recreation and we value their dedication and commitment to ensuring that our kids are safe and having fun.
If you are interested in volunteering as a Head Coach please email Leeanna Blalock, leeanna.blalock@carolinaelitesc.com.
