The MCYSA League Select
Program is designed to provide young athletes with additional opportunity to
improve their soccer skills, to experience the excitement of elite
tournament play, and to challenge their abilities by playing at a level
beyond the typical league experience. Over
the course of the program, each of our teams will be challenged to play
against some of the best teams and best players in the Tri-State Area.
The challenge is great, the number of trophies may be few, but the
rewards can last for years. Ultimately,
the reward of participation is improvement in technical and tactical play,
meeting new friends, making new teammates, and setting new goals for what
you want to achieve as a player.
Exact times and locations for the tryouts are announced on
this website in the
TRYOUTS section and via direct mailing to players in the MCYSA.
If you make the Select Team your participation will not
substitute nor conflict with your travel team's game.
Participating in the Select Program requires a commitment
not only by players but of the entire family. Players and their families
should make every effort to attend all weekend tournaments.
Some of the tournaments will
require some overnight travel in which case a parent / guardian must either
accompany their child or make arrangements in advance with another team
parent to take full responsibility for their child.
