COVID-19 Update
At this time, registration is available for our spring rec soccer leagues starting Jan. 4. Liberty Parks & Rec continues to work with the Clay County Public Health Center and Sporting Missouri Valley on a successful implementation of spring sports. The health and welfare of our players, families, coaches and staff is our top priority. As this situation remains extremely fluid, we will continue to post updates if there are any changes to the status of our leagues. In the event of a cancellation, a full refund or credit of file will be available.
Liberty Parks & Rec is continuing its partnership with Sporting Missouri Valley and Sporting KC to continue to grow the sport of soccer in the Northland by offering recreational leagues, camps, clinics and training. Sporting KC is offering Sporting Stripes, an introductory program, for ages 2-5, and Sporting Missouri Valley is offering youth recreational divisions for ages 5-14. Player development is our number one goal and we believe that if you focus on individual development, you will see the results on the field.
REGISTRATION IS AVAILABLE JAN. 4 - MAR. 1 FOR THE REC. LEAGUE
