After each session, players and friends are invited to join the Strikers at our sponsor bar, Cathedral Station in the South End, for some drinks and fun.
Sunday Practices - In Progress
Sunday Soccer offers a chance for players to kick the ball around with friends and make new ones. Sunday Soccer is a great way for newcomers to see what the Strikers are all about in a relaxed and fun environment and we welcome players of all experiences/skill levels.
BSSC 7v7 - In Progress
Boston Ski and Sports Club (BSSC) is an adult sports league in Boston which offers various types of league play throughout the year, and the Strikers regularly field teams in this external league, facing off against teams outside of the Strikers.
There is currently one BSSC season in progress, and we are gathering interest in fielding a team for BSSC's upcoming soccer leagues, including co-ed leagues. Please talk to a board member or Contact Us if you are interested!
Fall Thursday League
The Strikers Fall League started its inaugural season in September 2023, at Roberts Playground in Dorchester. All skill levels are welcome to this all-Strikers, social league. Fall League is played on turf fields, 7v7 including a goalie, This league has finished for the 2023 season and will return in 2024.
Indoor Soccer
Every winter, the Strikers retreat from the harsh outdoors for some fun and fast indoor play on Saturdays. This league is played in Revere, MA with games consisting of two halves of 25 minutes each. We play with boards so the gameplay is quicker and more appropriate for those with some soccer experience.
Tournaments
The Strikers also offer opportunities for our players to travel around the US (and the world!) to showcase our skills and make memories that last a lifetime. Check out the various tournaments offered by LGBT clubs all over and let us know through our travel tournaments page if you are interested in joining us.
