BYSA offers soccer programs in the fall and the spring. The fall season begins the soccer ‘year’ and all players need to register before they can practice or play with a BYSA team. The age groups are determined by Massachusetts Youth Soccer Association (MYSA). If a player is to move up in age groups, it will first happen in the fall program. All players are expected to play in their age group. They can never play ‘down’ a level.
The U6 , U8 and U10 programs are in town programs, with all regular games played in Beverly. The U12, U14, U16, U18 and U19 teams are travelling teams that participate in the Essex County Youth Soccer League (ECYSA).
For the travel teams, the level of competition is determined by the team's strength. The U12 and up teams have Division 1, 2 and 3 (with Division 1 being the most competitive teams). This is created to best establish good competition that will foster player development and team development.
For the U12 and above travel teams: The Fall season is a building season with no playoffs, where all players should get a chance to try different positions. The Spring season could result in the team going to the Essex county playoffs, typically played at Pingree. The top 2 teams in each group go to the playoffs. Div. 1 and Div. 2 playoff winners go to the state tournament, sponsored by MYSA (Mass. Youth Soccer Assoc.) and is typically played at UMass, Amherst.
BYSA asks all parents and friends attending the games to cheer all good plays by both teams, to not be yelling instructions to the players on the field (that's the coach's job to teach them what to do) and to be good sports and respect all players and referees on the field (this means no yelling at players or at referees). To help facilitate this, all non team members must stand on the opposite side of the field from the team during the game. All parents and friends should know that spectator misconduct may result in game suspension, termination and eventual forfeiture (per FIFA Law V). BYSA and Essex County Youth Soccer have a zero tolerance policy toward negative comments or threats towards players or referees on the field.

* Special requests to play on a particular team or for a particular coach
will not be accepted. BYSA makes every effort to create balanced teams.
Special requests disrupt this process and are unfair to other players and
teams. As always, coaches will be with their own children and same gender
siblings in the same age group will be placed on the same team.

TEAMWORK
Regardless of your age, the experience of being on a great team is priceless. It is something that will influence who you are for the remainder of your life. Few experiences can be as helpful in the growth of young athletes, as being part of a selfless group working toward a common goal. Great teams are made up of athletes who have given up their quest for individual glory, who have willingly and wholeheartedly accepted the character traits of a team player and who have fully committed themselves to the group effort. This is a coachs greatest legacy. What I spent, I had; What I kept, I lost; What I gave, I have by Henry Ward Bucher
