Select soccer is an opportunity for recreational soccer players to continue the growth of their soccer skills in an increasingly competitive environment while still placing an emphasis on development. As the name implies, players are selected annually for teams based on the abilities they demonstrate in open try-outs. Try-outs are scheduled in June for teams expecting to start play in the fall. All players try-out every year regardless of whether they have played on a select team before.

Select teams typically travel farther than recreation level teams. The WYSA league area is larger than the Kickers area. Select teams also have the opportunity to register for one or more select level tournaments which may require travel outside of our normal playing area (possibly requiring overnight stays).

All select players rostered on a team will be required to have a photo id card (aka player pass). The league prints these cards for registered players and the coach / team manager is responsible for these cards for the whole season. These are retained by the coach and inspected by referees at the start of each game. Only rostered players with player pass cards are allowed to play in a WYSA sanctioned game.
