Travel Program
PROGRAM
Travel soccer is for qualified, committed and dedication soccer players. Travel soccer starts at the U10 age division. Players who wish to play travel soccer must attend tryouts for the team they wish to play on (special cases will be considered at discretion of DOC). Travel teams are coached and managed by Parent-Coaches and also use professional training to assist develop and teach players to reach the highest level they can as an individual and team player. Travel teams practice a minimum of two (2) times per week and play one (1) game at the weekend in the Long Island Junior Soccer League (LIJSL).
MISSION
It is NSC mission to develop travel players to their highest level of capability, through; technical, tactical and physical training in a competitive, learning, soccer environment. We also strive to teach players the psychological aspects of the game and how to handle competitive situations with RESPECT, and provide players the experience required to take the game to the High School or Collegiate levels and beyond if they so desire.
ELEGIBILITY
Players who wish to play travel soccer must attend tryouts for the team they wish to play on. Tryouts are held at the end of the Spring season (June) of each year. If a players wishes to attend tryouts or practice with the Travel team in their age group, they must contact the coach of the team. To be a travel player it is a family commitment as well as the player, although it can be a very rewarding experience and teaches young players important values and life experience.
COST
Costs involve NSC registrations fee's, professional training, uniform, tournaments, winter leagues and summer camps. All teams vary and are based on the individual team commitment and dedication. Some choose to do more training and tournaments than others so it is very important for the family to know the team goals and expectations when joining the team.
