With greater clarity on health and safety guidelines issued by the Massachusetts Youth Soccer Association as well as ever-shifting conditions this summer, the Milton Soccer Board has decided to CANCEL Grade 3 soccer evaluations scheduled for August. We feel that our highest priority is to get your children to play soccer while preserving the health and safety of the entire Milton community.  We can do this without the mass gatherings required for evaluations.  We have therefore changed our placement policies for this Fall 2020 only, and will place all 3rd graders registered for Travel Soccer on teams without external evaluations (we have already cancelled all Grade 4-8 evaluations). Our intention is to make all the Grade 3 teams at relatively the same level given what information the Board has in hand. Thank you for understanding of this last minute change, and we look forward to getting back on the field safely. You will be receiving more information about the upcoming season and required safety guidelines in the coming weeks.

Milton Soccer Programs Fall 2020:

• K-2+ LEAGUE:  An in-town program for K (kindergarten), 1 (first graders), and 2+ (second graders and those third graders that want to stay in town) offered in the fall and spring. This program runs on Saturdays and Sundays for 60 minutes.  Each week features a skills session followed by a controlled game.  All training is supervised with professional instruction.  K-2+ is open to all Milton residents and students of all Milton schools.  You must register on time to have player and coach requests considered.  All games are played in Milton. Uniform is included with registration.

• TRAVEL LEAGUE:  Grades 3-8 will play in the Bay Area Youth Soccer league - www.bays.org.  Under normal circumstances, spring evaluations would be used to form two even competitive teams in Grades 3 & 4; the other teams in these grades would be as balanced as possible.  In grades 5-8, teams will be leveled (placements based on external and coach evaluations). Games on Saturdays (5 home and 5 away games), weekday practices, fall and spring.  If you have not played Travel soccer in the past or if your child has outgrown their uniform please order one at https://miltonyouthsoccer18.itemorder.com/sale or during the registration process.
  • For Fall 2020 only, due to COVID-19 health and safety guidelines, we will only hold evaluations for rising 3rd graders that register for the Travel program.  Evaluations will be held on 8/17 & 8/18 and 8/24 & 8/25 (more details to follow).  Players in Grades 4-8 will be placed on teams based on previous evaluations (external and coach input).

• PRE-K:  The Pre-K program is open to boys and girls age 3 through 5 and runs in the fall and spring.  Skills and fun sessions are conducted by professional instructors from Steel Soccer and sign-up for Pre-K is on the Steel Soccer website.  Pre-K registration announcements will be made on the Milton Soccer website, our Facebook page and via email from Steel Soccer to prior participants. If you have not participated, please contact [email protected] to be added to the mailing list for registration announcements.  No uniform required.  Registration for Fall 2020 PreK is NOT yet open.

We Need Volunteer COVID-19 Team Safety Coordinators!

• To assist our players, coaches, and parents with their efforts to return to play after the recent suspension of activities, Massachusetts Youth Soccer requires that each club assign a COVID-19 coordinator at the team level to oversee compliance of the return to activities protocols. As a result, we are looking for parents to volunteer to serve in this role. Our club's COVID-19 Safety Officer, Logan Thomison, will educate all volunteers on return to activities protocols ahead of the season. 

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

• How do I use my credit from the Spring 2020 season towards a future season:
  • You WILL need to register your child for the Fall 2020 season even if they were registered for the Spring 2020 season.  We did not roll everyone over to the fall, rather we gave everyone a credit on their account.  Please visit the Milton Soccer website www.miltonmasoccer.org  to register for the fall season.  There will be an option during check out to use your existing credit from the canceled Spring 2020 season due to COVID-19.

• Does my child need to try out for Travel Soccer:
  • No, Travel soccer is no longer limited in the town of Milton.  Under normal conditions we would hold spring evaluations to help place players on the appropriate team. Travel soccer is open to all abilities in grades 3-8 in the Spring & Fall and in grades 9-12 in the Spring only.

• Do I need to order a Travel Uniform:
  • You only need to order a Travel uniform if your child has never played in the Travel soccer program or has outgrown their existing uniform.  Please use this link: https://miltonyouthsoccer18.itemorder.com/sale or order during the registration process.
