Sartell Soccer Association (SSA) offers competitive team play for boys and girls ages U9 to U19 through its travel program, which runs in two separate seasons—Fall and Spring/Summer. The club emphasizes that soccer should be fun, promote personal and athletic growth, and help young athletes build life skills through meaningful challenges on and off the field.
The travel program emphasizes player development in a competitive environment. The travel soccer program requires a significant commitment from players and families.
Players entering the travel program are expected to have developed the basic soccer skills and understanding of the game that should be reasonably expected of a player at their particular age. Teams are formed from a variety of assessments and will reflect, to the greatest extent possible, the club's goals of creating competitive teams at the appropriate level of play for each group that will allow for the most growth and a positive playing experience for athletes.
The SSA will do its best to provide opportunities to all interested players at a level of play that is appropriate to their needs and skills.
