The Youth Soccer Club Social Media Calendar (What to Post All Year)

Most youth soccer clubs don’t struggle because they “don’t care” about social media—they struggle because the season moves fast and posting becomes one more thing on an already-full plate. The fix isn’t posting more. It’s posting on purpose.

Here’s a simple, season-based social media calendar you can use to plan content around the moments families actually pay attention.

The Big Idea: Post With the Soccer Year

Youth soccer has predictable peaks:

  • Tryouts and team formation

  • Season kickoff

  • Tournaments

  • Camps and clinics

  • State Cup and playoffs

When your content matches those moments, you get more registrations, more clicks, and fewer “we should probably post something…” scrambles.

What to Post by Season

Late April–May: Tryouts

  • Tryout reminders (dates, times, locations)

  • “What to bring” checklist

  • Coach introductions

  • FAQs for new families

  • Countdown posts

June: New Season

  • Welcome posts for new teams

  • Practice schedule reminders

  • Uniform pickup info

  • “Meet the board” or staff spotlights

Summer: Tournaments

  • Game day graphics

  • Bracket updates

  • Player of the match shoutouts

  • Photo recaps

  • Sponsor spotlights

September: Fall League

  • Season kickoff hype

  • Weekly schedule posts

  • Volunteer needs

  • Sportsmanship reminders

December: Camps + Younger Tryouts

  • Camp promos and deadlines

  • Holiday clinic announcements

  • New player info for younger age groups

January–March: Winter/Spring Season

  • Indoor training updates

  • Weather policy reminders

  • Skill-building tips

April: State Cup

  • State Cup schedule graphics

  • “Road to State” story series

  • Highlight reels (even simple photo carousels)

A Simple Weekly Posting Rhythm

If you want consistency without burning out:

  • 1 informational post (registration, schedule, deadline)

  • 1 community post (shoutout, volunteer, sponsor)

  • 1 culture post (values, sportsmanship, behind-the-scenes)
