The 2026 Wiscasset boys' soccer team is playing in an 8-man league, but in the preseason it's a different story. Wiscasset participated in the Richmond Bobcat Shootout on Aug. 22 and played four games against 11-man squads.

For the Wiscasset girls’ soccer team, it’s a new coach and a new league this fall. The team is moving from eight-woman to the traditional 11-woman game. James Andretta is the new coach. He coached the boys’ program last year.

Andretta has coached several of the estimated 21 players who indicated they would play this fall. Andretta previously coached the middle school boys and girls teams and did one year coaching a co-ed squad.
