Per the THPRD Website, all THPRD and BSD fields are now closed until April 26. http://www.thprd.org/district-information/coronavirus-update
At this point, WSC will be review the options, if any, for Spring Rec Soccer League.
Please allow some time to do this and get back to everyone. I will provide an update as soon as possible.
Thanks

Here is the latest info on the Coronovirus situation as it pertains to spring recreational outdoor soccer.
What we know at this point from our partners is:
With THPRD and BSD closing all the fields through March 31, we will not be able to begin practices on Monday, March 30. At this point we are planning on a minimum one week delay to the start of the spring season.
A decision about the actual start of practices and games will be made based on where things stand on April 1.
We wanted to provide an update regarding the status of the upcoming spring soccer season, scheduled to begin the week of March 30. Currently, we are awaiting advisement from Oregon Youth Soccer Association (OYSA) and Tualatin Hills Park and Recreation (THPRD) as to where our leagues fit into Governor Brown’s coronavirus gathering guidelines.
We have all been inundated with event and activity cancellations over the past 24hrs, however no decisions have yet been made with regards to the spring soccer leagues. Once a determination has been made, we will be sure to communicate any changes and/or necessary precautions as required. Updates will be sent via all-club e-mail and also posted here.
Thank you for your patience and continued support of Somerset West Soccer Club.
Our spring leagues don’t begin for a few weeks, so we have a bit of time to make the correct decision.
Registration is closed for the current Fall, 2019 season. If you have any questions, please send an email to registrar@somersetwestsoccer.org.
Our microsoccer season kicks off on Thursday, August 29 with a jamboree at Powerlines Park (Rock Creek Blvd across from Lenox Elementary) from 6:30-7:30.

Registration for the fall soccer season has proceeded well. The following age groups/genders are now closed as all the teams at these levels are full. If you have a player in one of these groups, please send an email to registrar@somersetwestsoccer.org to be placed on a waiting list. We are also in contact with our neighboring clubs and will be able to tell you if any of them have openings.
Closed Groups:
Registration is still open for all other ages. As teams/age groups fill up, we will keep this list updated.
Beginning in Fall, 2017, SWSC microsoccer teams will be gender-specific. Boys and girls will be placed on separate teams although the teams will continue to include both kindergarten and first grade players. All other clubs in the THJSL league have moved to gender-specific teams and have reported good results for the players. Girls will be allowed to be rostered on a boy’s team if requested by the parents.
A number of changes are being implemented for Grade 2-4 teams beginning in the Fall, 2017 season. These are being mandated by the USSF Player Development Initiative.
