If you are unable to attend, you must contact the Travel Director (see below).
A NOTE ABOUT TEAM SELECTION: Players are placed on teams on which our trainers feel they will have the most chance of success and development and where they will face an appropriate level of competition. All teams will receive the same high-quality training from professional trainers and have the same opportunities for developing their soccer skills and passion. Our goal is to provide the most positive experience possible for each child participating in the program.
Kids at this age develop their physical and mental skills and interest in soccer at widely varying paces. We encourage interaction between the different teams at each age level and expect players to move between teams from year to year as they develop at different rates.

• Proof of age…a photocopy of either a passport or birth certificate
• Completed Player Registration Form - IWSL for the Girls and YSSL for the Boys (download from PRS website)
