  • High School Soccer

    Participation with U15 through U19 Skyline Elite teams and high school soccer teams is NOT mutually exclusive, nor should discourage players from playing high school soccer.

    There will be some overlap with high school play in the spring season due to league play with clubs from states that feature fall high school play. Participation on Skyline Elite teams must take at least equal precedence with High School team participation.  Skyline Elite staff will work with local high school programs to mitigate conflicts as much as possible.
