Soccer for Life (U14-U15)
"Soccer for Life" typically refers to the stage in soccer development that follows the Learn to Train phase. It encompasses programs designed for players of all ages, including adolescents, adults, and seniors, who continue to participate in soccer for recreational, fitness, social, and competitive purposes. This stage is characterized by a focus on lifelong participation, enjoyment of the game, and personal development rather than elite performance.
TYSA registration numbers have typically been low for these age categories, however, there are still many active players who which to participate in soccer as an organized sport. It is our intention to continue to support this age group and hopefully revitalize the number of players in coming years.
