The Mainland United Soccer Travel Program has quickly become an elite level soccer club within South Jersey. Our teams are some of the regions premier teams that compete in Eastern Development Program (EDP), as well as, South Jersey Soccer League (SJSL) and the South Jersey Girls Soccer League (SJGSL). The EDP level teams offer advanced players from the region the opportunity to play in select tournaments and premier leagues while still playing on a local team and NOT traveling over an hour to practice and play for an academy team. Mainland United Soccer has teams competing at the highest level in the state and frequently places players on Olympic Development Program (ODP) teams.
Travel soccer is competitive soccer played against teams from other towns or communities and is designed for players and parents who are willing to make a higher level of commitment in time, effort, training and competition. Players who have shown an interest and ability greater than most recreational players can benefit from moving from our recreation program to travel soccer. Most middle school and high school teams are made up of travel soccer players. All starters on high school soccer teams are the products of travel programs. If your child has a desire to play soccer in high school, then travel soccer is a must.
