From the Canada Soccer Grassroots Standards:
| U6-U7 | U8-U9 | |
|---|---|---|
| Field width | 18 to 22 m | 25 to 30 m |
| Field length | 25 to 30 m | 30 to 36 m |
| Goals | Pop-up goals, maximum 4 ft x 6 ft (1.22 m x 1.83 m) | Ideal 5 ft x 8 ft (1.52 m x 2.43 m); minimum 4 ft x 6 ft; maximum 6 ft x 12 ft (1.83 m x 3.65 m) |
| Ball | Size 3 | Size 3 or 4 |
Because fields are not always under a soccer organization's control, the standards give a range for each format.
