Bridgewater Fall Kickoff

Kick off the fall season with our 1‑day, 3‑game tournament — a fast‑paced, well‑organized way to get your teams ready for the season.

Bridgewater Soccer Academy is a non‑profit, volunteer‑run club proudly celebrating its 51st year, and this is the 36th year of our Fall Tournament.

Team Capacity & Field Quality

To ensure every game is played on high‑quality grass or turf fields, we are limiting each age group to a maximum of 8 teams.

  • Applications close August 10.
  • All teams applying after that date will be placed on a waitlist.
  • We will review all entries and form two competitive, balanced brackets per age group.

Field Locations

Games will be played across some of Bridgewater’s top fields:

  • Crim Soccer Park
  • Bridgewater‑Raritan High School: Turf 2, Basilone, 1000 Field
  • Mountain Park

Payment Options

Venmo: @BSA-SOC or 

  • Check: Payable to Bridgewater Soccer Academy
    Mail to: PO Box 6024, Bridgewater, NJ 08807-1634

Format

Most groups will be in a back-to-back-to-back game format. We recommend bringing a large roster to this type of event.

Scheduling & Coaching Conflicts

In your application, please indicate that you have a coach with more than 1 team in the event. We work hard to minimize coaching conflicts.

However, because our format features mostly back‑to‑back‑to‑back games, and we use multiple field sites, it’s not always possible to avoid overlaps. We encourage clubs to plan staffing accordingly. 

Discounts

We offer several ways to save:

  • Early Bird Registration (before Aug 1)
  • Clubs Bringing 3+ Teams
  • NJ Nationals Affiliated Clubs

Even if your team fits into more than one discount group, the discount is capped at $50 per team.

Insurance & Refunds

  • No tournament insurance required.
  • In 2025, we issued partial refunds to teams unable to complete their games due to weather, and we remain committed to fair, transparent policies.
