WHAT IS 5-3-1 CHALLENGE?

The  5-3-1 Challenge  is a unique, fast-paced soccer competition that provides a wonderful test of players’ skills and ability to handle the ball.  Teams of up to 8 players play a series of four or five 45 minute matches consisting of three segments: a 18 minute 5v5 game, a 12 minute 3v3 game, and six 60-75 second duels in The Pit.

​​

Example: Team A plays Team B on the "red" straps for a timed 5v5 game that includes 4 field players and 1 goalie on the field at a time. After the 5v5 game concludes, the players will move on to the "red" 3v3 field and then finally onto The Pit in which 6 players from each team will duel in an individual showdown for 60-75 seconds a piece.

Teams will be scored on each of the match ups, thus 9 points is the maximum points a team can get in ONE 5-3-1 Cycle.

​

Division Standings will be ranked in order - total points, head to head, goal differential, goals against, goals for.

​

Age Groups: 2005 - 2013

​

Players: 6 - 8

​

Games will be played from 8am - 8pm on the day of the event.

​

Divisions will be created based off of skill and teams will be competing against their peers.  This creates the best challenge environment across the board - week to week.

​

The Pit: a 1v1 field in which individuals compete head to head over 60-75 seconds to try and earn  one tally for their team towards their 1v1 score.

​

ONLY Team Managers need to register.  Once registered, the team rosters and rules will be sent.  Finalized team rosters are not due until the day of the Challenge.
