For those players who desire a higher level of competition, GYSC offers travel soccer. Club teams play within the Capital District Youth Soccer League, WWW.CDYSL.ORG, against teams from other communities. Younger teams have the option of playing a fall season in September and October, and older teams start in November, generally after the middle school and high school seasons are completed.

During the winter, the club rents indoor space so teams can practice (once a week). Currently, GYSC rents space with Afrims, WWW.AFRIMSPORTS.COM. Teams also have the option of playing in three indoor sessions, which occur in November-December, January-February and March-April. The CDYSL outdoor travel season runs from late April through the end of June, with teams playing a ten-game schedule. Teams also have the option of playing in a variety of one-day and weekend tournaments, both indoors and outdoors.

Costs vary for a variety of factors such as the age of the child, the number of indoor sessions the team plays, the team trainer and the number of tournaments in which the team participates.

Try-outs are over the summer, with three tryouts occurring in July and August. Potential players are encouraged to make as many try-outs as possible so the coaches have the ability to evaluate all the players’ talent levels. Try-out dates will be posted on this website in the late spring, so please check back. If your son or daughter is interested in playing travel soccer, please feel free to contact us.
