RCSA is a member of the Virginia Youth Soccer Association (VYSA) and is subject to all VYSA rules, policies and recommendations.  Age group divisions are determined in accordance with VYSA guidelines.

Age groups are based on the player's birth year.  Age groups change each fall season and stay the same the following spring.  More information on age groups, field sizes and game formats is below. With RCSA and surrounding counties, odd age groups are usually combined with the next higher age group to form a team.  For example, U6 teams include U5 players.  U8 teams include U7 players, U10 teams include U9 players, etc.

All RCSA teams are co-ed.  Practices and home games are held at Rappahannock County Elementary School.
