Prior Lake Soccer Club traveling soccer leagues are generally the next step after participating in the PLSC In-House League(not required) for players interested in further developing their skill and passion for the game of soccer. Similar to thePLSC In-House league, there are two seasons for the traveling league, Fall and Summer seasons. The Fall season is considered the first season of the year. They are completely seperate seasons and registration is seperate from each season.
The governing policies and guidelines for the Traveling league are largely controlled by the MN Youth Soccer Assoc.(MYSA- www.mnyouthsoccer.org ) including maximum number of kids per team, season dates, game days/nights and age eligibility. Traveling leagues teams are not co-ed.
MYSA uses the following birthyear guidelines to divide the players into appropriate age groups for safety and developmental purposes:
Fall 2010 –
Summer 2011
Fall 2011 –
Summer 2012

On-line registration for the Traveling-Fall leagues generally opens in mid-July. The cost for Fall is $125 per player. Addt'l uniform costs may be necessary. Please check the registration page for updates.
Summer leagues are the 'big' soccer season compared to the fall season. The season is longer(more games) and more players/teams are registered.PLSC will typically offer U9 thru U17 teams for the summer season.
Due to the large number of players, teams are formed in part by a tryout process usually conducted during the previous season's month of August(i.e. Summer 2011 teams are formed, in part, by tryouts conducted in August 2010). The tryout schedule is posted on-line usually during the month of July. Final team formation is determined by the Player Development Committee.
Teams will typically be announced by the end of August.
