FAQ's
What is a "travel" soccer team, and how is it different from "recreational" and "premier" teams?


There are three basic types of organized soccer leagues available to children before Middle School; recreational, travel and premier. Recreational leagues typically consists of teams of children from the same community. Recreational teams usually are coached by parents of children on the teams. Many of you have children playing in the Buckeye Soccer Association's Instructional and Recreations League on Saturdays during the school year. That is a good example of a community recreational league.

Travel soccer teams generally consist of children from the same community who play travel teams from other communities. Travel leagues usually are significantly more competitive than recreational leagues. Practices are twice a week and players are expected to make every practice as well as every game.  Travel teams will participate in 1 or more local tournaments each session, Fall & Spring.  Travel teams are coached by certified coaches.

Premier teams consist of children from different communities. Premier teams usually play other premier teams and some travel teams, and they tend to be coached by professional coaches. Most premier clubs are operated on a for profit basis. The monetary and time investment is significant.  Some premier teams face a level of competition that is significantly greater than that faced by travel teams.
