The 2021 fall season starts on Saturday, September 11 and ends Saturday, November 13, 2021. Sessions are scheduled for the Saturday of Columbus/Indigenous Peoples’ Day Weekend (October 9).
The NGS Grade 7/8/9 City in-town matches are held on Saturdays at 4:30 PM at Fessenden (Field A/The Class of 1985 Field and Field B/The Kumin-Loring Field). Each season a few games are also played versus Brookline.

Teams will practice once per week. Practice time and location are determined after teams are announced and will depend on field and coach availability. You may indicate your availability when you register. After teams are announced, coaches will reach out to families to discuss practice.
Players are assigned to teams with parent coaches.
