Register
After registering, here’s what to expect:
- Coaches will send a welcome letter and communicate necessary info as it becomes available in the months leading up to the start of the season, such as uniform purchasing, and any other team business.
- The WYSL fall season opener is usually the second Sunday in September. The NYCSL opener may be earlier. Actual schedules are shared when the league publishes them. Travel teams generally begin to practice in early September, although some manage to fit in some pre-season practices.
- Club leadership will also be in touch ahead of season start with a kickoff message and any guidelines for that season.
Travel Teams — Player Registration Instructions for Invited Players
We use the GotSport system for travel player registration. If you have an account, log into your existing account. If you are new to our travel program, create an account. The registration link will be provided to invited players.
- Upload a current photo of your player’s face (color, similar to passport pic).
- Upload a scan or photo of your player’s birth certificate or passport.
- Pay the registration fee by credit card. IMPORTANT - If your player has not attended an evaluation, and been explicitly invited, by club leadership or a coach, DO NOT REGISTER, even if someone sends you a link. This will create confusion and more work for our travel registrar, and your player will ultimately be unregistered.
Travel Team Game Schedules
Each season, game schedules are available on the league websites. Teams also use apps to share the schedules with families.
Travel Refund Policy
A shorter version of the below policy appears at checkout when a player registers for a travel team and in the registration receipt.
Registrant agrees to membership in the Rivertowns United FC for the one full season (fall through spring).
Rivertowns United FC registration fees are used to fund entry to the Westchester Youth Soccer League or the New York Soccer Club League as well as other expenses in the travel program and the fixed costs of operating a non-profit youth sports organization.
Uniforms are non-refundable and non-returnable because families purchase uniforms directly from the vendor. Our refund policy allows for a consistent approach to refunds that is repeatable and is not punitive.
Accordingly, if a player registers with a travel team and subsequently decides not to continue with the team, we will refund registration fees as follows:
