Travel Registration Information The 2026-2027 Season

THERE IS NO PAYMENT REQUIRED TO TRYOUT.

It is anticipated that teams will be selected mid June and players must accept their spot with a payment made to reserve their spot.

Manchester Soccer Club – Tryout Notification

  • ALL players (new and returning) must be registered prior to tryout dates.
  • All open balances must be paid before a player can be considered for the upcoming year. If you have an outstanding balance, the club may require that the full amount for the upcoming year be paid upfront before your player is rostered.
  • Please note that U.S. Soccer has updated age group eligibility guidelines for the upcoming year. We will review and address any significant impacts to team formation after tryouts are completed.
  • While we aim to form teams at every age level, there may be instances where we are unable to create a team for a specific age group. If this affects your player, families will be notified and provided with alternative options.

New and Returning Players:

Please ensure that a recent (within 6 months) profile picture is uploaded to your player profile. These photos must resemble a license or passport-style image (clear headshot only, neutral background, no hats or filters). They are used for player verification by officials during the soccer season and will be rejected if they do not meet requirements.

For NEW players only:
You must also upload a birth certificate or U.S. passport to verify date of birth. This must be completed no later than when teams are finalized.
