ACTON VILLA COMPETITIVE OVERVIEW
Our Competitive Teams play in
South Region Soccer League. Follow the link for league information including Schedules.
There is also a District Development League run by PHSA which is taking over the functions of the now-defunct Select League, PHSSL. The Development League is intended as precisely that - development of highly skilled players in preparation for full competition at older ages.
The difference between competitive and recreational soccer is driven by the intensity of the experience. In order to enjoy the challenges of Competitive soccer - also known as "Rep" in hockey terminology - the coaches need to know that the players are the ones who are able and willing to deal with the extra challenges of higher calibre play.
Going into it, parents also need to understand that the costs involved are higher than with the recreational program (which is known as "house-league" in hockey language). The matches are spread over a greater distance, and teams expect to attend a number of tournaments each year. The coach can provide a budget for expected cost.
All-star is a team made up of players from a number of recreational teams, for the purpose of tournament play. It is not intended to be a stable team.
If you are interested in Coaching a team - whether Competitive, Recreational, or All-Star - please contact Director of Coaching at coaching@actonsoccer.org .
TO BE CONSIDERED FOR A COMPETITIVE TEAM IN THE 2012 OUTDOOR SEASON you must contact the Director of Coaching before September 18 2011. After this date, there will be other forms to complete and we expect to make final decisions on all teams on around September 30th. COACHES are NOT permitted to hold tryouts until they have been granted the privilege of a team.
You will need to fill out forms and follow processes listed on the the Coaching page.
Note that a coaching application form must be received and a coaching appointment approved BEFORE tryouts can take place for a team.
