..why is club soccer 12 months now.



I have been involved with club soccer for 16 years and it has basically been a 9-12 month program since I've been in it. My daughters played for a local club's rec teams in fall and summer seasons up through U12. SCYSA has U13-U14 Select leagues in the spring as well as fall, and ODP in the Spring for all ages. A good many select teams begin practice in June or July for the seasonal year that runs August through July. Of course the regional and national tournaments are in the summer and, when my daughters played, the Super-Y League was in the summer.
