ROSE TREE SOCCER CLUB

2017Fall Travel Team Registration & Evaluations

The Rose Tree Soccer ClubTravel Program offers an opportunity for boys and girls to play soccer at a competitive level in the Philadelphia suburban area. Travel Teams are formed inspring through a series of evaluations. Travel Teams practice and attend Tournaments during the summer; and play in various Leagues and Tournaments during the Fall Season and potentially year round. The level of commitment for both player and family varies by team and age group, but generally includes two practices during the week and games most weekends during the Fall Season, and some teams also participate in league play over the winter and spring.

It is very important to note that the number of Travel teams RTSC sponsors each year is dependent on the number of qualified players and coaches, and therefore RTSC maynot be able to offer everyone a place on a travel team.
