Triumph Select Program
Triumph Select Program Information
TYSA offers “Select” soccer programs for boys and girls ages 12-18. These programs are the most competitive at TYSA, and require a “tryout” to be selected to play. Some of our best coaches are involved in this leading edge program to field the most competitive soccer teams at TYSA. The home field is the Granite-Patillo Park complex. Practices and home games are held there.
Age Group: The Select Program is offered for the U13, U14, U15, U16, U17, U18 and U19 age groups.

Player Fees: Player fees include registration for fall (U13-U19) and spring (U13 and U14 only), capital improvement, coaching and pre-season camp. Uniform and tournament entry fees are additional.
Games: Roughly half of the games are at our home field (Granite-Patillo Park) and the other half are away. In general travel is limited, away games are typically no more than 45 minutes drive from Tucker against other metro Atlanta area associations. The player and parents MUST be committed to getting the player to practices twice per week – also at the TYSA Granite-Patillo Park complex.
The typical season consists of:
• Pre-season camp (Fall only)
• 4 weeks pre-season training
• 1 pre-season tournament
• 10-12 regular season games (roughly 5 home / 5 away, 75% Saturday and 25% Sunday afternoon)
• 1 post-season tournament
Tournaments: Each team typically participates in four tournaments per seasonal year. The tournaments are held before and after the season for both the Fall and Spring seasons to give the coach a chance to evaluate the players and team strengths/weaknesses. Therefore, participation in tournaments is required. A tournament usually consists of a minimum of 3 games with a possible 4th final game if the team performs well. Each tournament costs the team approximately $500-$550 to register. This cost, plus coaching fees, is divided evenly across all players, so cost is approximately $45-60 per player per tournament depending on team size.
Practices: All players must bring a Size 5 soccer ball and water to every practice. All players must wear shin guards along with their Adidas practice jersey. Soccer shoes, cleats or turf, are recommended. Use of sports goggles or soft contacts is recommended in lieu of glasses.
Mandatory Team Camp: The team summer camp is included in the registration fee. Each player must bring water to every practice along with a size 5 ball. Shin guards are required, and soccer shoes, cleats or turf, are recommended.
Refund Policy: A registered player is bound to Triumph Youth Soccer Association for the entire seasonal year. A request for release will be considered for extenuating circumstances. All such requests must be submitted to the Program Administrator (admin@tysa.com). The registration fee, once paid, is refundable only if the registered player moves in excess of 25 miles from the area or is unable to participate due to injury. All releases and/or refunds will be submitted by the Program Administrator to the TYSA President for approval. Approved refunds will be pro-rated accordingly.
