BYSC will not sponsor an Academy Program for the Fall 2008.  Please consider the new  Pre-Travel Program.  Details are found on the online registration site.

The BYSC Pre-Travel Program was established in the Fall 2007 Season. The chief purpose of the Pre-Travel Program is to offer a unique training opportunity and competitive format for those young boys and girls interested in the Travel Soccer Program.

Training will be provided by pre-selected professional licensed trainers under the supervision of Paul Morant. Training methods and techniques will be similar that of BYSC travel teams. Two training sessions will be conducted each week - one weekday afternoon and one Saturday. Competitive games will be coordinated and scheduled with BYSC and other local age appropriate travel teams. Parents of Pre-Travel players will be offered an opportunity to volunteer as assistants to the trainers. While high quality training is the main focus of the Pre-Travel Program there are numerous related features of the travel program that will be addressed:

  • Try-outs for future boys and girls U-8 and U-9 teams will be coordinated through the Pre-Travel Program. Player selections for Travel Teams will be made by the Travel Committee at the end of the Fall and Spring sessions.
  • Travel Team coaches and Assistant Coaches will be selected by the Travel Committee based upon their participation and commitment demonstrated in the Program.
  • The Pre-Travel Program is becoming the pre-requisite to the Travel Program.  This Fall we will have 2nd Grade Girls and Boys that will participate in the 2nd Grade Pre-Travel Program.  The players that are deemed 'Travel Ready'  will 'most likely' participate in the Travel Program in the Spring.  Those same players will be eligible to play in the U-9 Fall '09 Travel Program due to the fact that they have been deemed 'Travel Ready' and have proven themselves to the Coaches.

    Essentially - subject to a display of extraordinary skill and knowledge of the game and rules - the players that did not participate in the Pre-Travel Program will need to spend at least one season in Pre-Travel.
