With the motto, “We don’t care who comes in first, but we do care if you have fun!” the purpose of Adult Coed Soccer and the Social Recreation Program is to create a unique recreational opportunity where participants can meet new people and socialize with family, friends and colleagues in a relaxed atmosphere. The program offers the perfect opportunity for friends, families, co-workers, congregations, couples and teachers to bond with one another and meet new people.

For those interested in a more competitive environment, Wicomico Recreation is also introducing a competitive Men’s Soccer League this Fall. For more information on either the competitive or recreational soccer leagues please contact Steve Miller at 410-548-4900 x105 or smiller@wicomicocounty.org.
