CENTRAL OREGON SOCCER LEAGUE (COSL)

SPRING 2026 REGISTRATION OPENS SEPTEMBER 15

We’re excited to share that registration for the Central Oregon Soccer League (COSL) Spring 2026 Season will open on September 15, 2025!

🆕 What’s New This Year?

COSL is introducing a new registration package system:

At the start of registration, you’ll see registration packages grouped by Bend-La Pine area schools or other Central Oregon geographical locations.

Each package will display the maximum number of roster spots available.

Packages will fill on a FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE basis.

Once a package is full, it will only be available as a waitlist option.

⏳ Two Rounds of Registration

First Round: Packages are based on school/geographical location.

Second Round: Any underfilled packages may be combined to complete team formation.

If demand is high (e.g., multiple players request the same area/school in the "Any Team Available" option or waitlists grow), a second package may be opened.

COACHES CORNER

⚽ Why Volunteer Coaches Matter

Our league wouldn't exist without the dedication of volunteer coaches. These incredible individuals are the heart of youth soccer—teaching teamwork, building confidence, and creating a positive environment where kids can grow both on and off the field.

You don’t need to be a soccer expert to make a difference—just a willingness to learn and a passion for helping kids thrive. With training and support provided, volunteer coaches become role models, leaders, and game-changers in our community.

Step up, support the next generation, and help us keep the game going.

Become a volunteer coach today!

Central Oregon Soccer League (COSL) is a recreational league hosted by Bend FC and sanctioned by Oregon Youth Soccer Association. COSL is a spring league designed for recreational soccer players who are in prekindergarten through eighth grade. The league utilizes volunteer parent coaches who are supported by Bend FC's professional coaching staff.

Our number one priority is to protect the league's integrity and to that end, we can't have outside influences, parents, or even coaches building teams. We believe that a true recreational approach ensures a fair and balanced distribution of players and talent across all participating teams. This means that your child might have different teammates, classmates, or coaches from season to season. This fosters community building across schools at times and is a great learning experience for the players.

Please review "Important Information" regarding requests, practices, locations, games, etc for each age group.

The COSL UPDATES LINK will be frequently updated with new information.

All COSL games are officiated by USSF Referees, when available, with the support of club volunteers and coaches at some of the younger age groups.

To maximize player development and player enjoyment, no age groups will play 11v11. The 9v9 format is the largest game size that COSL offers.
