The MYSA traveling soccer program begins with the U09 eligible age group. U09 teams are filled with U09 eligible players first, then younger players if space is available.

League Season: The summer competitive traveling season runs from early April to early July. Older teams (U11 and above) may also choose to participate in League play-offs and advance to Regional and State play-offs that run through late July. Practice schedules are set by the team (typically set by the coaches and team manger). Practices start in early April (weather permitting) with MYSA league matches beginning in early May and running through early July. League games are scheduled on weeknights (M-W or T-Th) with playing nights established by MYSA (http://www.mnyouthsoccer.org/leagues/playingnights.cfm) based on age group and gender. Teams play 1-2 games each week and will have 10-12 league games a season; half at home and half away. RWSC is in the MYSA East District: Away games are typically in the East metro, although leagues within the East District vary from season-to-season (the furthest you typically travel is 90 miles one-way).

Tournaments: For younger teams (U09-U10), each team is entitled to participate in the mid season MSYA Summer Jamboree (http://www.mnyouthsoccer.org/events/jamboree.cfm) and to select and participate in one other weekend Tournament hosted by an MYSA affiliate Club (http://www.mnyouthsoccer.org/tourneys/sanctioned.cfm). For older teams (U11 and above), each team is entitled to select and participate in one weekend Tournament hosted by an MYSA affiliate Club and to participate in League play-offs; advancement to Regional and State tournaments are based on performance.

Team availability depends on player and volunteer interest. Teams are filled based on age eligibility and order of registration. U09 teams are filled with U09 age eligible players first, then younger players if space is available. Age group eligibility is set by MYSA birth year guidelines (http://www.mnyouthsoccer.org/leagues/birthyear.cfm); there are no exceptions to the guidelines. Registration is complete when the club has received payment of registration and uniform fees, OR the Club has received a complete Financial Assistance application. Teams are formed based on the Club’s commitment to providing an opportunity for as many players as possible to play soccer. Teams are only formed when the Club has commitment of a volunteer Coach and Manager (typically parents of the team players).
