Tryouts

These sessions are the main entry point for players looking to join New England Surf, offering the opportunity to experience the club environment while being evaluated for placement within our pathway — at both Regional and State levels.
 
Our approach is structured and intentional, with evaluations based on more than just a single moment. Players are assessed on technical ability, coachability, effort, and how they perform within a team environment, allowing our staff to identify both potential and the right developmental fit.
 
This is where the Surf journey begins — an opportunity to step into a high-level environment, be challenged, and become part of a community built on development, ambition, and a shared love for the game.

2026–2027 Age Group Updates

Important Changes to Birth Year Cutoff 

 

U.S. Soccer and most competitive leagues will be shifting to a new age group formation beginning in the Fall 2026 season.

The 2025–2026 season will remain under the current birth year rules, giving families and players a full year to prepare for the transition.

Beginning in Fall 2026, the new August 1 – July 31 age cutoff will apply.
