WESTPORT TRAVEL SOCCER U8-U15 BOYS & GIRLS
(TRYOUTS REQUIRED)

Travel Program Overview 2025-2026 SEASON
Our Travel program is a competitive, ability-based, three-season program (fall/winter/spring) for U8–U19 teams. Tryouts are typically held each May for the upcoming fall season. Teams compete in the CJSA league against nearby towns in Southwest CT. Professional coaching is provided by Mickey Kydes Soccer (U8–U13) and Staples High School coaches (U14–U15). Parent volunteers are encouraged to support as team managers or assistant coaches, subject to coach needs and required town/state certifications.
