Boys & Girls Fall 2020 Registration Is Open

Posted on by

Given the current situation with COVID-19 we will not be conducting our traditional fall team tryouts.  All new and returning boys or girls players interested in playing for Melrose United should register for the fall season here.  

This fall there will be a $100 deposit as part of the registration process.  The balance of the fall registration fee will be due prior to our first game.  The final cost for the Fall season is still TBD, but is not expected to exceed last fall’s cost of $390/player.  Your deposit will be applied to the final cost of the fall season.  Players that need to purchase uniforms will be able to do so for $95 once team placements are determined.

We are asking all interested players to register for the fall season using the following link.  https://melroseunited.com/?page_id=1336We are planning to field up to five boys teams (birth years 2006 through 2014) and up to three girls teams (birth years 2008 through 2014) this fall.  The final decision on the number of teams and their age groups will be determined based on the response we receive from the registration process.  Player placement for each team will be determined based on each player’s birth year and ability.

The Mass Youth Soccer and Club Champions League New England (CCLNE) guidelines and fall season details are still evolving, including season length, potential modifications to the rules of play, travel guidelines, league cost, etc.  Melrose United will follow the Return to Soccer Activities Guidelines as determined by Mass Youth Soccer, as well as any additional requirements mandated by CCLNE.  The guidelines can be updated at any time and we will be monitoring the situation closely.  The updated Mass Youth Soccer Return to Soccer Activities Guidelines will be available at https://www.mayouthsoccer.org/returntosocceractivitiespdf/.Register here

Please let us know if you have any questions and we look forward to seeing everyone on the pitch in the near future.
