​If your child is interested in playing soccer at a higher level, our club offers competitive winter and travel seasons from October-August for players U8-U19. We are currently in the 2024/2025 season, so please check the age matrix above to see your player's eligibility for different levels. Competitive teams/ seasons are not guaranteed, and will only be run if there is enough interest. Players are not guaranteed a spot on the team, and tryouts may occur if there is excess interest. 

Winter A season runs the last week of October - Mid December. It is typically an 8 game season. Games are typically played on weekends. Game times depend on the age group. Games are played indoor 7v7 for U8-U12 and U16+, and 8v8 for U13-U15. Indoor cleats are not required. Teams will begin to be formed in by the end of September. Tryouts may occur if there is increased interest
For age groups U8-U12, programming is available at Sportsplex in North Tonawanda, and at the Lincoln Park Athletic Complex in Buffalo. For U13-U19, there is only the Sportsplex option. 
The cost of the season can be anywhere from $150-$300 per player depending on how many players sign up, how often teams practice, and where teams practice. A $50 deposit is required at the start of the season to hold your spot, but the rest of the total can be paid off over time. The final total may not be known at the start of the season, but should be given by the 2nd week of the season. The full payment must be made by the end of the season. Scholarships may be available
Winter teams typically practice 1-2 times each week. In the earlier weeks of Winter A, practice may be held outside at Ives or East Niagara. Sportsplex indoor space is available to rent for $85-$115 an hour. If your team will practice at Sportsplex, this will be included in the final registration total. Due to field availability, practice times may begin at 5:00pm if at Sportsplex.   Gym space may also be available for practices at lesser/no cost. 
Fundraising is available to help subsidize the registration costs. Typically players have the option to sell candy bars and football squares to help reduce their costs. New players/ teams may see an added costs for uniforms their first season. 
A minimum of 11 players are needed to make a team for a winter season. Winter teams of all age groups and genders are possible, provided there is enough interest. 
Given previous teams/ interest, we will likely run a U11/12 Boys, U11/12 Girls, U14 Boys, U14 Girls. U10 boys, U10 Girls, and U16/18 Boys teams are also possible, as well as any other age groups/ divisions. If interested, please fill out the interest form on our website so we can see what teams are possible. 
The Winter B season runs January- April and is a 12 game season. The cost is typically higher since it is a longer season and there is less opportunity to practice outside to reduce cost. Costs may be $150-$350 per player depending on how many people sign up. If your player participated in the Winter A session, they should have a uniform which will lower the cost.  Recruitment for the Winter B season will begin in December. If a team does not have enough interest for the Winter A session, we will still try for the Winter B session. We will still do candy bar and football square fundraising to help lower costs for the Winter B session. 

Travel: We are a member of the Buffalo Western New York Junior Soccer League. You can visit their website for additional information. Travel Registration will begin in February. We must confirm and submit a team by mid-March in order to take part in the summer season, so the interest levels need to be confirmed early. Players do not need to have played on a Winter team to be a part of the summer travel team. The Travel season may have games mid May- Early August. Practices for travel will likely begin in April, and should be outside depending on field conditions.  Games generally always begin at 6:45pm. It is a 10 game season, 5 home, 5 away. All away games are in Western New York and should not be more than 1.5 hours away. This season, our travel teams played in Niagara Falls, Clarence, Lancaster, West Senece, Pioneer, Arcade, Grand Island, Amherst, Southerntier, Buffalo, and Orchard Park.  Travel players can only play for 1 travel team. They must submit a photo to us and get a player pass in order to be rostered.  Travel Costs may be from $130-$250 depending on the size of the team. New teams may have added uniform costs their first season. Scholarships may be available Travel teams typically practice twice a week. Players have higher expectations and responsibilities. Equal playing time is not guaranteed at levels above U10.  Travel teams may participate in tournaments at an added costs. Participation in tournaments is optional, but recommended.
