EYSA's fall travel soccer program through the
Roots Soccer League (RSL) and
Massachusetts Youth Soccer Association (MYSA). We will field boys and girls teams in as many levels as possible: 9U-14U. There are no High School teams in the fall as players participate in soccer with Easthampton High School. In some cases, EHS will pull in JV players starting in 7th grade (13U) in order to field a full JV team. When this is the case, players may still sign up with EYSA/Roots/MYSA but they will not be allowed to miss any JV or Varsity soccer events in favor of other team's games or practices.
Program | Born on or After | Grade Level (Approximate) |
9U | 9/1/2014 | 3rd |
10U | 9/1/2013 | 4th |
11U | 9/1/2012 | 5th |
12U | 9/1/2011 | 6th |
13U | 9/1/2010 | 7th |
14U | 9/1/2009 | 8th |

Given rising numbers of registrants, evaluations and tryouts may be needed in divisions where we have enough players to field more than one team. In cases where we don't have enough players to field a team at a certain level, we may seek to combine or move players (see section below).
The first games of the season will be scheduled for September 10, 2023 with practices starting several weeks before that.
EYSA Rec SoccerOur recreational program offers learning and development opportunities for players from Pre-K through roughly 4th grade. We break things into 4 divisions as outlined below based on age and, in some cases, experience. Novice and Learn to Play are designed for players with no or limited soccer experience and meet twice per week. Skill Building works to further soccer skill development in a non-competitive environment, while the 10U Rec program (aimed mostly at 3rd and 4th graders) begins to introduce games, goalies, referees, etc. Both of those latter division practice twice per week and have scrimmages/games on Saturdays.
