Whitman-Hanson Youth Soccer is a volunteer-run organization committed to promoting grassroots soccer in our community, including developing skills, increasing knowledge of the game, and fostering good sportsmanship across the organization. We believe in providing a positive, fun environment where participants can focus on personal growth and development while enjoying playing the game of soccer.
SSSL Zero Tolerance Policy: The S.S.S.L. has adopted a zero-tolerance policy prohibiting the abuse by word or action toward referees by players, coaches or spectators at soccer matches.
