US Youth Soccer and US Club Soccer recently decided to change the age cut-off date for youth soccer leagues. This large change will affect the team structure of all teams playing in a USYS or US Club affiliated league across the country. While this will cause a disruption in the short term, Synergy SC is pleased that the change is being made to help alleviate issues that the birth year model caused players and clubs. Starting in Fall 2026, a soccer year will start August 1st, and go until July 31st in the following year. While not perfect, this will drastically limit the number of trapped players without teams during the year.
While we understand that teams, players, and families, have already built positive relationships which are a large part of youth sports, we also understand the long term benefits of the change. Synergy SC plans to move all players to their new corresponding age group. We will then look at individual scenarios for players that are put in a less competitive situation due to the change. If we feel the player and affected teams are best served by having a player 'play up in age' we will make the move to accommodate that players growth and development. Players always have the opportunity to train with other teams in our club and can earn chances to play up in age showing commitment, strong abilities, leadership, and a positive attitude. Coaches will discuss individual plans for players with their families before and after tryouts.
