are held at different times of the year depending on age and level
of play.

- Are playups allowed? -- Yes playups are invited
to tryout for teams in our competitive program. However, our Association
rules limits U12 teams to no more than 4 playups per team. There
is no playup limitations on U13+ aged teams.
- Did the Club Fees go up since last year?
-- The players total fees (SSC Club Fee + SpVJSA Registration
Fee) have gone up from last year. However, this difference reflects
an increase in the SpVJSA portion of the fees and not those of
Spokane Soccer Club. As of the 2007/2008 season, SpVJSA is moving
from a player registration model to a club based affiliation model.
The SSC Elite Club Fee and SSC Falcons Club Fee now includes
both the Spokane SC Membership Fees and the SpVJSA Team Affiliation
Fees.

- Do I have to live in the Spokane
Valley to tryout for Spokane SC Competitive Team?
-- No, any player may tryout for our competitive program.
- Are there any extra trainer or
coaching fees? -- This depends on whether your team is
in the SSC Elite or SSC Falcons program.
- The SSC Elite Club Fee is all
inclusive and already includes coaches and trainer fees. This
includes Goalkeeper training. Optional training camps may
be offered at an additional cost.
- SSC Falcons Club Fees do not include
coaches and trainers fees. Goalkeeper training is included
in the club fees. The coaches/trainer
fees can vary from team to team and may be between $0-75 per
per month per player while the team is training. Parents should
inquire about coaches/training fees no matter what team or
club they are trying out for.
- How much travel is involved?
-- This depends on the level of play for the team and number of
tournaments.
- Premier teams competing in the Washington State Premier
League (WSPL) will play teams throughout the state. Normally
this involved 4-7 trips to western Washington during league
and possible overnight stay.
- Select teams competing in the District 6 league will normally
play games in eastern Washington and northern Idaho. For the
most part there is no overnight stay involved.
- Tournaments are normally planned in advance. We recommend
that you speak with the coach on their tournament plans at
tryouts.
