Local Soccer

Come join the Strikers at one of our many soccer-playing opportunities throughout the year in and around Boston.

Fall Thursday League - 80% full

The Strikers Fall League plays at Roberts Playground in Dorchester, Sept - Nov. All skill levels are welcome to this all-Strikers, social league. Fall League is played on turf fields, 7v7 including a goalie.

Sunday Practices - In Progress

Sunday Soccer offers a chance for players to kick the ball around with friends and make new ones. Sunday Soccer is played in Roxbury/South End and is a great way for newcomers to see what the Strikers are all about in a relaxed and fun environment. We welcome players of all experiences/skill levels.

 

Indoor Soccer - Returns in December

Every winter, the Strikers retreat from the harsh outdoors for some fun and fast indoor play. NEW for Winter 2026, this league will be played on Wednesdays in a Boston location to be announced. Games consisting of two halves of 25 minutes each. We play with boards so the gameplay is quicker and more appropriate for those with some soccer experience.

BSSC External 

Boston Ski and Sports Club (BSSC) is an adult sports league in Boston which offers various types of league play throughout the year, and the Strikers regularly field teams in this external league, facing off against teams outside of the Strikers.

In Fall 2026, the Strikers are collecting interest for one or more teams in the Men's 11v11 competitive league. 

We continue to gather interest in fielding a team for BSSC's upcoming soccer leagues, including co-ed leagues. Please talk to a board member or Contact Us if you are interested!

Wednesday League - season completed

The Strikers 7v7 league is a social league that welcomes all skill levels. The league takes place in two 6-week seasons during the spring and summer. After each session, players and friends are invited to join the Strikers at our sponsor bar, Cathedral Station in the South End, for some drinks and fun.

Travel Soccer

The Strikers also offer opportunities for our players to travel around the US (and the world!) to showcase our skills and make memories that last a lifetime. Check out the various tournaments offered by LGBT clubs all over and let us know if you are interested in joining us.

29th Annual Provincetown Soccer Classic

Indigineous People's Day Weekend, October 9-11
Provincetown, MA

The Boston Strikers' Provincetown Soccer Classic is a social and welcoming soccer tournament for all skill levels. In our 29th year, this tournament promotes and celebrates everything we love about LGBTQ+ soccer and is set in the wonderful heart of Provincetown, MA.

Wigs and Heels is the tourney's signature social event, where we don our glossiest Party City units and slip on our best pumps. The theme this year is "Insert Coin, Serve Punt," a nod to all things RETRO! Maybe you're a 50's Housewife, a 60's Lava-Lamp Tramp, a Foxy 70's Mama, 80's Material Girl, 90's Clueless Queen, or a Y2K It-Girl from the Naughty Aughties. Insert Coin, Serve Punt, and maybe win a prize!

Visit the Tournament page for more information.

BOSTON STRIKERS

We build a community for LGBTQIA+ individuals and allies in the Greater Boston area by fostering friendships, a fun atmosphere, and healthy competition through soccer inclusive of race, skill level, gender, gender identity, religion, socioeconomic status, and age.

The Boston Strikers Soccer Club is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization established in 1987 to give LGBT soccer players the opportunity to connect outside the traditional bar scene.  To this day, the club strives to offer players a space to make friendships through a sport that we all love.  The club runs leagues for all skill levels throughout the year.  We recommend trying out one of our Sunday Soccer Practices as an introduction to the league to see if you like what we're about.  Interested in receiving emails about upcoming leagues, events, and volunteer opportunities?  Visit the JOIN US page to register with your email address and we'll keep you up to speed on all things Strikers.  See you on the pitch!
