Travel Player Age Group Info

A Player’s age for the Fall 2009 Soccer Season is their age on July 31st, 2009. Players born after July 31, 2001 are not eligible to play travel soccer unless they are entering third grade this fall. The various Age Groups are described as under a certain age, and technically any Player who is under that age can tryout and play for a team in that Age Group. However, RTSC strongly encourages players to play in their appropriate Age Group. Any new player who wishes to be considered for an older age group should note that when they register and attend both age group tryouts.
•        Age Groups:
Age Division        Birth Date Range
Players born between:
U-09        08/01/2000 To 07/31/2001
U-10        08/01/1999 To 07/31/2000
U-11        08/01/1998 To 07/31/1999
U-12        08/01/1997 To 07/31/1998
U-13        08/01/1996 To 07/31/1997
U-14        08/01/1995 To 07/31/1996
U-15        08/01/1994 To 07/31/1995
U-16        08/01/1993 To 07/31/1994
U-17        08/01/1992 To 07/31/1993



Travel Tryout Expectations

•        Players are expected to attend both tryouts. Participation at only one tryout may hinder the ability to accurately assess skill level. Any player unable to attend tryouts due to extenuating circumstances must still register and contact Bruce McWaters (girls) at bmcwaters@msn.com or Mike Johnson (boys) at sgtmj41@comcast.net prior to the tryout dates to make alternative arrangements.

•        RTSC will make every effort to field as many teams as we have competitive players and coaches, however we may not be able to place everyone on a team. Players should be notified of their status prior to May 29th.

•        Players should wear shin guards and bring a soccer ball and water bottle to tryouts. Players are requested not to wear travel team jerseys to tryouts.


Travel Team Costs

•        In addition to the registration fee additional costs to play travel soccer include uniform costs and fees to cover activities such as tournaments and training sessions during the year. The total cost will vary from team to team depending on the level of activity the Coach and the Team (including Parents) establish for the Team. (It is the policy of RTSC that no player is denied the opportunity to participate in the sport of soccer for financial reasons. Please contact the club when registering if you have a financial hardship.)

•        Starting in 2004 all U9 players will be asked to pay a training fee of approximately $25 to provide a skilled trainer to work with their coaches and players during the year.

•        Registration fees will be refunded immediately to players who are not placed on travel teams. Once placed on a team, players who drop out prior to August 1, 2009 are eligible for a refund of their registration fee less a $25 administrative charge.
