Travel Program
The McLean Youth Soccer (MYS) travel program consists of team training, league and tournament play as well as other on and off field developmental events including college information sessions, specialized fitness training, and special technical clinics. Players try out each year to be considered for a team. Once selected, the player commits to one seasonal year (August-July) of participation with the team. McLean Youth Soccer offers a range of teams for players based on level of play and commitment. Players should carefully review information about a team prior to trying out.
