WHAT AGE LEVEL TEAM WILL MY SON/DAUGHTER BE ON?  The MYSA switched over to the calendar birth-year team formation system. This means that your son or daughter is grouped with other players in the same birth-year (example, all players born in the year 2004 play on same team). Please refer to the LEAGUE PLAY page to determine what age level your son or daughter qualifies for. Click the link for the MYSA Birth-year Guide to determine appropriate team.
 
DO YOU PARTICIPATE IN TOURNAMENTS? Yes, for the summer season, most teams select 2 or 3 tournaments to compete in. Each team is responsible for selecting and registering for tournaments.  For the fall season, they may elect to play in a tournament as well.  
 
HOW MANY GAMES ARE PLAYED IN A SEASON? For Summer, a team will generally play 10-12 league games, depending on age and division. Playoffs are single elimination format. Tournament play is determined by each individual team. A team will usually play a minimum of about 12 games and a maximum of about 25 games in a season.

For Fall, a team will play a total of six regular season games, and depending upon their division, they may qualify for the Fall State Tournament.  

WHAT IS THE COMMITMENT LEVEL? Wright County Soccer Traveling Program is intended to provide a competitive soccer experience. Players and coaches are expected to attend all games and practices. By signing up to play, you are acknowledging that you understand the importance of consistent attendance in the overall success of the team. Expect between 3 to 5 games and/or practices per week.

DO YOU HAVE TRYOUTS? Yes – Wright County Soccer requires all players who wish to play on one of our higher level teams (C2 and up) to attend tryouts. Tryouts are held in late July / early August each year in order to effectively place players on the correct team for the following season.
