Mebane Youth Soccer Association

The MYSA is excited to announce that starting this summer, we will be accepting credit and debit cards for payment of travel soccer fees. By popular demand, you can now pay some or all of your travel fees with a credit or debit card at registration. We also hope to be able to process subsequent payments in person or via phone. Once we get the travel side underway, we’ll be investigating the feasibility of accepting cards for payment of Recreation fees in future years – either in person or online when you register. We are also investigating the possibility of electronic check processing to allow for immediate withdraw of fees via check to vastly improve our processing turnaround.

MYSA Away Jersey

The Mebane Youth Soccer Association has chosen a new travel team kit and vendor for the 2010-2011 and 2011-2012 seasons. The MYSA has chosen the Ireland jersey and Rome shorts from Score Sports for it’s travel team kits. In addition to the travel team kits, the league’s agreement with Score will provide MYSA recreational teams with special pricing on uniforms, coaching equipment, and more. Customization of the travel team uniforms will be done by Mebane Sports & Trophies.

The Mebane Youth Soccer Association will be holding travel team tryouts for 2010-2011 travel teams the week of May 24th. Tryouts will be held at the Mebane Soccer Complex (Directions). Tryouts are free and open to anyone born on or between 8/1/92 and 7/31/03. For more information on our travel program, see the MYSA Travel Soccer Guidelines and MYSA Travel Soccer FAQ.

Tryout Schedule

Complete tryout details can be found on our Travel Tryout page, including links to pre-register and a tentative coaches list.

Registration for the MYSA’s Fall 2010 Recreational and TopSoccer seasons has begun! Registration will continue through July 4th, 2010. Registering online is EASY! Simply login to your parent portal (or create an account if you don’t have one) and follow the instructions.

Make sure you select the proper level in the ‘Registering For’ field. Click ‘Register a New Player’ to register a child who has never played for the MYSA before. If your child has played before, they’ll be listed in your account – simply click the ‘Register for Fall 2010′ button. NOTE – you may be asked to update your contact information. This does NOT register your child! Until you see ‘Registered on xx:xx:xx xx/xx/xx’ next to your child’s name AND have received a confirmation email – they aren’t registered!

Registrations received after the deadline will be subject to a late fee. Players who plan to tryout for an MYSA travel team should NOT register for Recreation until after the travel rosters are released! They should register for ‘Tryouts’ instead.

Registration for the 2010 MYSA British Soccer Camp continues through early July. However, if you register online before June 4th, 2010, your child will receive a free soccer jersey! So register now!

As of 3PM, all MYSA fields are OPEN and all tournament matches will take place as scheduled. Very little rain was received this morning.
