TOPSoccer Program Locations & Registration
Indiana Soccer is proud of the work of the volunteers who support TOPSoccer programs in their communities. A complete list of Indiana TOPSoccer clubs can be found here.
All TOPSoccer athletes are required to register with the club where they join to play. Each club has it’s own registration forms and you will turn the forms in directly to the club. There is a specific medical form to be used for Down Syndrome athletes only. This also gets turned in to the club where your athlete is participating.
What gear will my TOPSoccer athlete need?
Every TOPSoccer athlete must have soccer shin guards on and a water bottle for each session. The athletes may wear either cleats or tennis shoes.
Avon Sports Apparel supports the Indiana Soccer TOPSoccer program. You can print this flyer to receive a discount in the store on gear.
