FAQs ON TRYOUTS & PROGRAMMING

Our mission is to develop high quality soccer players by providing a comprehensive soccer experience.  We believe we accomplish that mission, in part, by forming the most competitive teams we can at each age and skill level. 


In certain cases, we may ask a player to play “up” for the season (meaning to play with and against kids born in the prior birth year). We will make those decisions based on what is best for the development of the player and will do so only after consultation with the player’s family and approval from the appropriate Director of Coaching and age group coaches.


Keystone FC is happy to answer any questions you might have about our philosophy or other questions related to tryouts.
