2026–27 season
Tryouts & evaluations.
Spring 2026 tryouts determine placement for the 2026–27 season across the club's competitive programs.
How it works
The evaluation process.
- Register online through PlayMetrics for the program you're trying out for.
- PlayMetrics automatically assigns your player's age group based on birth date, following US Youth Soccer seasonal-year age divisions (NCYSA age-determination chart).
- MLS NEXT Homegrown uses its own age-group system, separate from the US Youth Soccer divisions used everywhere else.
- To request an older age group, email the Director of Soccer directly rather than adjusting it yourself.
- Specific dates, times, and field locations are announced on each program's page once finalized.
