MTSA Registration Process
MTSA offers two programs – a Recreational (Rec)
one for players as young as 4 years old and a Travel
program for players as young as 7 years old prior
to August 1st. Age levels in soccer are defined as
“under the age of” or “U”
as of August 1st of any given year. Thus a “U5”
player would be under the age of five as of August
1st and a U8 player would be under the age of 8 as
of August 1st as of any given year. A player remains
in that “U” age group for the whole year
thru July 31st of the next year. Thus a U8 player
who has a birthday in August and turns eight years
old still remains in the U8 category until August
1st of the next year. Under this classification most
players are with teammates in the same school grade.
However players with birthdays in August and September
are eligible to play with teammates in the next grade
lower though most choose to play a “U”
age up with their classmates from school.
The Rec program is available for players U4-U8 –
there is no Rec program for players older than U8.
In the Rec program players are assigned to teams,
uniforms are provided, and weekly games are played
against other Rec teams. The Travel program is available
for players from U8 – U19. Players are assigned
to teams based on ability – the Travel teams
play primarily in two leagues, the South Jersey Soccer
League (boys) and the South Jersey Girls Soccer League
(girls). Games are played against teams from various
towns and soccer clubs across south and central jersey.
Travel players purchase their uniforms separate from
the registration fee and process – the uniforms
can be used year after year as long as the uniform
fits.
Registration fees are determined annually based on
the anticipated costs to MTSA (field and equipment
maintenance, training, referee costs, league costs,
etc.). The Rec program costs are lower mainly due
to the difference in referee fees between the two
programs. Registration of players is done on-line
using the “GotSoccer.Com” system with
payments made by either a credit\debit card or use
of an “electronic check” which bills your
checking account. Cash is not accepted – and
payment must be made at the time of registration or
the registration will not be completed and the player
will not be assigned to a team. MTSA has a Refund
policy and a Financial Hardship policy – please
refer to the MTSA web page covering these policies
and processes. If a Financial Hardship request is
granted a voucher number will be provided to be used
to make payment for registration.
Please select the appropriate registration program
from below which will take you to the on-line registration
process. As part of this process you will create or
use an existing “player” account with
a log on name and user password for each player registered.
Additionally families with multiple players should
create, or should already have, a family account which
has a separate log on name and user password. MTSA
offers family discounts if you have multiple players
in the SAME program (discounts are not offered for
multiple players in different programs). In order
to get these discounts you need to have a family account.
If you are unsure whether you have an existing account,
or if you have lost your user name and password, please
email us at MTSA.soccer@gmail.com
and we will forward your user name and password if
you do have an existing player or family account.
