FALL PROGRAMS
The Blue Mountain Soccer Club (BMSC) offers two programs for the FALL based on birth year and grade:
Developmental Program – In-House soccer for age levels U5 thru U8 (1st Grade and younger).
All practices and games take place within the boundaries of the Blue Mountain School District.
Travel Program – Inter-Club soccer for age levels U9 and above (2nd Grade and older) for all skill levels. Travel teams typically compete in the Reading-Berks Junior Soccer League (RBJSL). Please note that due to many RBJSL schools having Junior High soccer (including Blue Mountain), divisions for 7th grade and older might not be available.
PLEASE NOTE: Fall 2020 season, players will be placed on teams using BIRTH YEAR as the starting point of formation of teams starting with the 2012/13 birth year. This is USA Soccer Guidelines. Also will be looking at skill levels (per skill evaluations) and team needs. Teams which has already been in the club will stay grade based to keep teams together (U12+). Skill Evaluations will be used if needed per club decisions.
