Travel/SIMSS Team Information
Each Fall and Spring, for grades kindergarten through eighth, we have competitive teams that travel to play other area programs and tournaments. This is a great program for players who want to take their game to the next level. It is also for players who want to play year round. In the Spring, we only have a travel competitive programs - no recreational soccer.
This is a competitive soccer program. Play time for each player is determined by the head coach given player ability and game situation. This is not like the recreational league where coaches are required to play everyone at least half of the game.
** K - 5th grade players must participate in Rec League to play on a competitive travel or SIMSS team.
