RYS - Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ

Q: When does the fall season start and how long does it run? When do games and practices take place?

A: In our fall in-town league, teams generally are formed in early August, then coaches begin practices later in the month. Practices can be on any day, depending on the coach. There is usually one practice a week, but that also depends on the coach. Games begin on Opening Day and go through the end of October. Generally it's one or two games per week, depending on the division.


Q: Does a player have to have experience on an in-town team in order to participate on a travel team?
Q: Does a player have to have played in the fall in order to participate in the spring?

A: Participation on an in-town team is not a requirement for play on a travel team. Participation in the fall is not a requirement for play in the spring. However, keep in mind, travel teams are more competitive and every player may not be selected for a spot on a travel team. Experience and skills are important factors considered when selecting players for travel teams.


Q. Is Raynham Youth Soccer in charge of team's for Dome soccer?

A. RYS coaches often put in teams for Dome soccer but this is done with no affiliation with RYS. Dome soccer teams are not insured by RYS.


Q: How/when do I sign up for a travel team?

A. Dates for registration and tryouts for travel teams for both the fall and spring seasons will be posted on the website and at the Snack Shack.


Q: My daughter will be going into 3rd grade in the fall, and will be on the U10 team according to her birthday, she has not had any soccer experience. Will she be at a disadvantage due to her lack of skills? Should we sign up for another program first?

A: We have kids at all playing levels in our fall program.  I feel pretty sure that your daughter will do just fine.  If you'd like to talk some more about it, you can contact the director for her division.  (Contact info is available on the website.)


Q: Does RYS have a program for kids under 5 years old?

A: Currently, kindergarten kids (age 5) are the youngest kids we serve in our programs. It's a fun learning experience where kids begin to learn soccer fundamentals while having a lot of fun with a soccer ball.
