Player Eligibility 
In partnership with Roanoke City Parks and Recreation Youth Athletics, there are 4 Roanoke City Regional Recreational Clubs that provide recreational teams for players that reside in Roanoke City. Your Roanoke City Club Region is determined by what City Elementary School would serve your residential address.

Region IV, Southwest Roanoke, Greater Southwest Athletics serves addresses that fall under the following City Elementary Schools: Crystal Spring, Fishburn, Grandin Court, Virginia Heights and Wasena.  If a student goes to school out of their home school zone (i.e. for the PLATO program at Highland Park or the STEM program at Fishburn), they may choose to play for their home region or for their school region.

For contact information for Regions I, II, and III: Roanoke City Region Map - Recreational Sports
