Select 16U-19U

Select 16U-19U can be divided into Classic and Challenge level teams. Challenge is the highest level program that our club currently offers. All select level teams are formed through a tryout process in May for training and games that begin in August. Players age levels are determine by the SCYS Age Matrix.

Classic level teams compete in the statewide Presidents Medal Soccer League (PMSL) and can play between eight and ten games in the fall season. These games are usually on weekends but there could be an occasional weekday game against a local club. Game locations depend on the clubs in the team's bracket and travel to the midstate, Greenwood and Rock Hill is not unusual. The fall season culminates in the Publix President's Medal State Cup in November and teams must qualify for this tournament by finishing in the top eight. New for Fall 2014, the winner of this tournament is promoted to the South Carolina Soccer Challenge League (SCSCL) for fall play the following year.

Challenge level teams compete in the statewide South Carolina State Challenge League (SCSCL) and can play between eight and ten games in the fall season. These games are usually on weekends but there could be an occasional weekday game against a local club. Game locations depend on the clubs in the team's bracket but games could be as far away as Greenwood, Columbia and/or Spartanburg. The season culminates in the Bob Brantley Publix Challenge Cup in December and teams must qualify for this tournament by finishing in the top six*.

Practices are three times a week in one of two locations, Michelin Athletic Fields in Sandy Springs or Nettles Park in Clemson.

Fall Season for all teams begins in early August with team camp. Training begins a week later and league games usually start at the end of August. Teams will compete in two tournaments with one early in the season. League play ends in November, followed by a late season tournament, with training ending mid-December. There is only a fall club season for 15U-18U teams (as it is across all of South Carolina) to avoid conflict with high school soccer.
