Frequently Asked Questions

At this time, we only offer a Sunday 11v11 Coed (2 females per side minimum) league that runs in the Spring and Fall each year.  This Sunday Coed league offers promotion/relegation each season and is one of the largest in NC.  In Fall 2023, we hosted 5 Divisions and 34 teams.  For those looking for some summer action, we also have hosted the Queen City Cup for 8 of the 9 last years (sure you can guess what year we missed).  

With all this said, we are always looking to begin hosting additional leagues during the week and different formats (7v7, mens competitive, womens competitive or overs).  If you have interest in helping get one off the ground, we'd love to help!

The first thing is to fill out a New Team Interest Form at the link below.  

New Team Interest Form

With a league the size of ours, field space is always a challenge and doesn't allow us to simply take every team that comes along sadly.  With that said, we always have turnover and are constantly looking to find more fields and welcome in more teams.  

We do our best to continue to grow the league, find fields and find everyone a home within our league!

Your first step will be to look through our Rules and make sure you are on board with how our league is run.  We follow the IFAB Laws of the Game for a majority of our in game "rules" and our games are officiated by certified referees.  

Next, you'll want to click the following link and submit an interest form for you as well as anyone you'd like to be paired up with.  We encourage each interested player to fill out the same form.  This Google Form will ask you various questions about your skill level and background playing soccer.

Lastly, prior to the season, the league will host a Draft in order to place as many players as possible.  For those not placed within the preseason Draft, you will be on a list that's available to Captains to select you also.  This is important to know so as to not be discouraged if not initially selected.  Often, captains have players drop right before the season or simply need to replace injured players as the season goes on.

There are 2 fees associated with playing in MASL - a Player Pass & a Player Fee.  Both are required to participate in MASL and will be charged at the time of registration (as needed).  

Firstly, the Player Pass is a registration with NCASA (North Carolina Adult Soccer Association) which is our sanctioning body underneath USASA/US Soccer.  This is the adult equivalent of your player pass you more than likely had if you played youth soccer in this country above a recreational level.  This fee is currently $30 and covers you for each calendar year (ie 2023, 2024, 2025, etc) and must be purchased prior to playing your first game in our league each year.  There are other leagues that fall under NCASA and if you have a player pass from another NCASA league, your player pass will work in MASL as well.  No additional purchase required.  

Secondly, the Player Fee.  This is a fee that must be paid to play in MASL each season.  This can come in the form of a full season pass ($95/team) OR a guest player ($15/game).  If you are joining a team for a season, you'll obviously want to purchase the full season pass.  Additionally, one cannot register as a guest player for a game in the MASL Playoffs.
