Select Program Overview
The Select Program offers an opportunity for older youth players (ages 13U to 19U) to play soccer at a more challenging and competitive level, while still placing an emphasis on learning and having fun. IAFC Select players are expected to give a greater commitment of time, energy, and focus to their teams. Select teams are formed once per year, with tryouts occurring in late May or early June. Players are assigned to teams based upon their individual skill levels and team requirements.
Players and their parents at the 13U and 14U level must commit to both the fall and spring seasons, and 15U to 19U players must commit to the fall season. Select boys teams play in MLS Next, National League and SCCL. Select girls teams play in DPL and SCCL. Select teams typically play in 1-2 games per week throughout the season, as well as playing in 2-3 pre- and post-season tournaments each season.
