Welcome to the Manchester Soccer Club (MSC)

Spring 2012 Travel Registration Due December 5^th

• For the Spring 2012 Soccer Season, the MSC will sponsor single-gender teams for boys and girls born between August 1^st 1993 and July 31^st 2003.  All of our teams participate in the Essex County Youth Soccer Association (ECYSA) Program.  ECYSA sponsors a competitive, inter-town league.  ECYSA keeps scores, publishes standings and hosts a tournament in June for winning teams.
• U10, U12, and U14 Teams will play on Saturdays
• U16 and U18 Teams will play on Sunday afternoons.
• MSC is not always able to offer every player a space in the Spring program, primarily because of limited access to athletic fields, too few or too many players registered by the ECYSA deadline, and too few coaching volunteers.
• Parents are encouraged to contact the club and volunteer as Administrators and Coaches.  Prior coaching experience is not required.  The club can arrange for the training, materials, and support that you need.
• All players must provide their own uniform, shin guards and wear approved soccer cleats.

• Travel Uniforms:
  Travel uniforms need to be ordered by you through Seaside Graphics, 27 Railroad Ave. Gloucester, MA 01930. Phone: 978-281-0960 Fax: 978-281-4111 Business Hours: Monday – Friday 8:30 am – 5:00 pm.
