"After graduating college, I wanted to get back into soccer and enrolled in Chelsea Piers. At first it was challenging, playing 5 v 5 on the small fields forces you to develop foot skills and ball handling. But after a few seasons, I was playing the best soccer of my life. Now, I play in leagues all over NYC but always find myself coming back to Chelsea Piers."
Why Chelsea Piers Leagues
Count on seamless games with the right competition.
Rain or shine, your game goes on
Climate-controlled, AC in summer, heat in winter. Your weekday game happens rain or shine, every single week.
One home, every week
Same field, same address, heart of Chelsea. No chasing a different borough or a relocated permit every other week.
More touches, better game
A tighter indoor pitch means more ball time and sharper play. Less standing around means more soccer!
Weekly communication and confirmations
We call every team, every week, to lock in rosters and prevent no-shows.
A level for everyone
Tell us how you play. We'll place you in a division where the competition is real but the fun never stops.
