Pelham Bay Soccer Club (PBSC) Travel is a competitive travel soccer program for athletes ages 7 to 15. This program requires that players and families be committed to the duration of the season.
It also involves a substantial commitment in time, energy, and money from both the player and their families. Our travel program is best for players willing to continue their development at a competitive level while making hopefully life long friends.
Our travel teams are tryout based. Tryouts are generally held in the Spring and Fall season. Individual players can also tryout at anytime during the current season ONLY when invited by the club. Players who tryout are not guaranteed to be placed on a team. Players are placed in a competitive team, relative to the rest of their age group.
Our licensed professional coaches create an air of excitement, where players are able to be creative and guided to further hone and develop their soccer skills.
Our Pre-Travel Developmental Program is where players build their foundation for competitive travel soccer. Our main focus is developing “individual player ball mastery and techniques.”
Players enhance their confidence on the ball, their creativity and decision making. Each player is encouraged to perform skill moves when beating an opponent in a 1v1 situation.
Players are trained in a controlled environment where they’re challenged physically, mentally and cognitively. Engaging in 1v1 and 2v1 activities is a fundamental aspect of their development as competitive players.
During their later years in our Pre-Travel Developmental Program, we begin to dedicate more focus and time on developing “partner play.”
They begin the transition from individual to group play as they near the age and developmental requirements for a travel team.
Our partner play phase will include lots of passing and combination play activities. Players are taught how, where, when, who and why to pass and create combination plays. Technique is emphasized and refined at each training session.
Our aim is to graduate all pre-travel players into our travel team once they reach 8 years of age.
