Program Overview
The McLean Youth Soccer (MYS) Recreation program focuses on individual player development and the enjoyment of the game of soccer - not on winning games. We believe it is important for our players, parents and coaches to embrace this philosophy for it is an important foundation of MYS.
The Recreation program includes the following programs:
- U3-U4: Parent/Player non-team-based introduction to soccer for our pre-K players.
- U5-U6: NEW Kickstart Program that is part of the US Youth Soccer Game Format Project supporting greater individual skill development and decision-making.
- U7-U8: Academy style, non-results, team-based developmental program.
- U9-U10: Team-oriented program promoting fun and player development.
- U11-U19: Team-based program that competes against area club teams in the local area.
These programs are hosted in the Fall (September-November) and Spring (April-June) seasons.
**The MYS Recreation program does not permit carded travel players to participate at the recreation level.
**Requested practice times made during registration are not guaranteed.
In addition to the above programs, MYS also offers extra trainings and winter leagues for recreational players. All are age specific and can be found on our Recreation Training page.
