Local Soccer
Come join the Strikers at one of our many soccer-playing opportunities throughout the year in and around Boston.
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 played in Roxbury/South End and is a great way for newcomers to see what the Strikers are all about in a relaxed and fun environment. We welcome players of all experiences/skill levels.
Wednesday League - In progress, waitlist only
The Strikers 7v7 league is a social league that welcomes all skill levels. The league takes place in two 6-week seasons during the spring and summer. 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.
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.
In Spring 2025, the Strikers are fielding three teams in the Men's 7v7 Fenway league. Please visit the registration page for more details.
We continue to gather 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!
Indoor Soccer - Season Complete
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.
Fall Thursday League - Season Complete
The Strikers Fall League played 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.

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.

BOSTON STRIKERS
The Boston Strikers Soccer Club is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization established in 1987 to give LGBT soccer players the opportunity to connect outside the traditional bar scene. To this day, the club strives to offer players a space to make friendships through a sport that we all love. The club runs leagues for all skill levels throughout the year. We recommend trying out one of our Sunday Soccer Practices as an introduction to the league to see if you like what we're about.
