TRAVEL SOCCER 2020/2021 for U8-U18 BOYS & GIRLS
(TRYOUTS REQUIRED)
Our Travel program is a competitive, ability-based, 3-season program (fall/winter/spring) that requires tryouts (typically held in the spring/May prior to the subsequent fall season). Participating in the CT Junior Soccer Association (CJSA) league, our U9-U18 teams compete against surrounding southwest district CT towns. Fall and spring seasons include weekly practices on Wed/Fri, Sunday games and seasonal tournaments including our annual Westport WIN tournament in March. U16-U18 teams play in spring only. All Travel teams have professional coaches from Mickey Kydes Soccer providing many years of experience and exceptional team guidance. Parents are encouraged to volunteer as team manager or assistant coach depending on the needs of the head coach. All volunteers and MK coaches must complete safety and coaching requirements before stepping on the field.

After Traveling Outside CT:
Before returning to WSA activities after traveling Outside CT, WSA recommends (in-line with Westport Public Schools):
- Get a viral test after returning to Connecticut, and stay out of WSA activities until you receive a negative test from the laboratory.
- Be aware of and closely self-monitor for COVID-19 symptoms during and after your trip, especially for the 14 days after returning.
- Immediately quarantine if anyone with you on your trip tests positive after returning to Connecticut.
- Be prepared to immediately quarantine if/when symptoms appear.
WSA Quarantine Policy:
If a player or coach of a team shows symptoms within 48 hours of last team exposure, and test 'positive' for Covid everyone on the team is considered a direct contact and must quarantine from WSA team activities for 10 days (expsosure is Day 0). Testing "negative" will not shorten the quarantine time. No exceptions.
If your player tests positive for Covid-19,
