U6 - U8 Practices during the week and Games on the weekend at the WYSA Soccer Complex. at least 7 games a season.

U10  Practices during the week and Games at the weekend. Most gams will be at WYSA Complex.  at least 7 games a season.

U12 - U19 Practices during the week and Games at the weekend with travel to surrounding counties.  Teams participate in the Bluegrass Regional Soccer League.  Travelling to Lexington, Georgetown, Paris, Winchester, Richmond and Nicholasville.  May be other surrounding clubs depending on membership.

WYSA is a volunteer-driven, non-profit organization.  As such, we depend on the generosity of our parents and teams to help maintain our complex and ask that everyone volunteer an hour or two of their time each season.  We host two complex “clean-up” days each season (beginning and end of the seasons) and rely on volunteers to run concessions.

Each team will discuss volunteer opportunities at the beginning of the season.  We hope you take advantage of this opportunity to support youth soccer in Central Kentucky and give back to your soccer community.

If you are interested in financially supporting WYSA through a charitable contribution, please contact Mike Cocanougher at wysa.assisstant@gmail.com for information on sponsorship packages, signage, etc.

WYSA will be hosting a Kings Hammer Spring Tournament.  These bring in vital funds that supplement the registration fees but we need volunteers for events to help make them a success.

The club is run for every member and their family and we would like to ask everyone to be prepared to volunteer and help make this the best club we can.

U4's

For the U4's we will have a fun play date approach to soccer to build ball control and confidence.

 

U6, U8 and U10:

Scores are not kept and the main aim is fun and soccer skills development.

The aim will be that U6's and U8's will have a minimum of 1 practice and U10's having 2 practices on week nights.

We attempt to have 8 games for each of our teams.

Team Coaches decide on day and time of practice sessions and then the Team will have a match against another WYSA recreational team on the weekend.   Games will be scheduled in advance and be played on a Saturday mornings.

Where we try our best to not have scheduled games on a Sunday, there may be the need to play Sundays to make up some games.

U19, U14 and U12

Teams enter the Bluegrass Regional League and will play WYSA teams and also travel to other recreational soccer clubs in Lexington, Richmond etc
