Missed our tryouts? Limited roster spots still available.
New England Surf is hosting Additional Tryouts for players seeking an opportunity to be evaluated for remaining roster openings. These sessions are designed for players who were unable to attend our original tryouts or who would like to be considered for available positions within our Regional or State pathways.
Our evaluation process follows the same standards used throughout our club, with clear criteria, multiple staff evaluations, and a focus on long-term player development and team fit.
Players are assessed on more than technical ability. Coaches evaluate coachability, work ethic, competitiveness, and how players contribute within a team environment. Our goal is to identify players who align with the Surf culture while providing a positive and transparent experience for families.

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.
