About Roots (RSL)
The Roots Soccer League is the town/travel, or 'super rec', league for the Pioneer Valley, serving Hampden, Hampshire, and Franklin counties along with travelling clubs from Vermont and Connecticut. Founded in 2016, it has grown to roughly 350 teams and 200 games a week. Fall play runs 7U through 14U; the spring season adds a 15U–18U high-school bracket. League HQ is inside the Roots Athletic Center on Root Road in Westfield.
Good to Know
Each age group plays 8 regular-season games, primarily on Saturdays, with no games on Labor Day, Columbus Day, Thanksgiving, or Memorial Day weekends. 9U/10U open with a Jamboree; 11U–14U close with play-offs for the top four teams in each division. Spring Division 1 winners advance to the Massachusetts Tournament of Champions. Only organizations that roster players from their own town or catchment area are admitted, and new clubs must be voted in by the existing membership.
