Vernon Youth Soccer Travel Program

Vernon Youth Soccer offers four state-of-the-art full-sided turf fields. All full-sided home games are played on turf with lights available at all fields.
We compete in the MCYSA, JAGS & MAPS; some teams also participate in League Cup, State Cup, NJ Cup and various tournaments throughout the year.

Vernon Youth Soccer has both travel and premier level soccer available for many age groups.

Vernon Youth Soccer PREMIER Teams

Participation in a Premier team requires a full year/four season commitment.  Premier teams participate in primarily JAGS, EDP, NPL or CJYSA MAPS Leagues, carry US Club passes and play in State or National Cups and multiple tournaments.  They train through the winter and potentially play a summer season.  These teams likely train more frequently than traditional travel teams.  Fees are team based and vary by each team, contact individual coaches for additional details.

Vernon Youth Soccer TRAVEL Teams

Vernon Youth Soccer travel teams participate in the Morris County Youth Soccer Association.  Games are usually on Sundays, occasionally on Saturdays.  You will have 5 home games and 5 away games each season.  Away games could require an hour or more of travel time from Vernon.  Games will be played on Mothers Day, Fathers Day and other holidays so your commitment to playing travel soccer may alter how you spend some of these days.

ALL travel teams practice two times per week; one night is with a trainer from the Red Bulls Professional Training Program, for 1½ hours. Occasionally, teams may add extra practice as needed or participate in scrimmages. Each team will receive 10 Red Bulls Professional training sessions per season.

2015/2016 Travel Season

Travel fees cover both the fall and spring season.  Travel Teams will be required to purchase new uniforms for the 2015/2016 season.  In addition to travel fees and uniform cost you may also incur additional fees throughout the year.  This will vary by team so you should speak directly with your coach for what to expect.  Possible individual and team expenses may include tournaments, extra training, clinics, winter and summer training and/or tournaments, camps and equipment/uniforms (bags, warm-ups, etc.).

Developmental Player Program

Developmental player status is for those players who can benefit from participating in all practice, training sessions and scrimmages with an existing MCYSA travel team but may not have yet reached the ability or commitment level required by that team.  These players will not participate in games or tournaments and will not be required to purchase a uniform.  If at any time a coach has a need for players or wants to add to their roster, they first look to “pull-up” their developmental players.  All developmental players are eligible to play in-town. Developmental players are required to pay a developmental fee in addition to VYS Registration.

Travel Tryouts

Each existing travel and premier team may hold tryouts during the month of April or May or individually throughout their seasons.  If you are new to travel or would like to be considered for developmental player status, contact Brian Logue, VP/Director of Travel at [email protected] Every player wanting to tryout will be required to complete a Travel Pre-Registration Form (available on our Forms page).
