The District Select Program ("DSP") is run by Massachusetts Youth Soccer each summer. DSP provides players the opportunity to continue their development during the summer in a fun and competitive soccer environment.
DSP Districts
For the purposes of the DSP, the state is divided into seven Districts. Click the link below to find which district your town is in:
In the event a team in a player's age group and gender is not formed in the player's DSP District, the player may elect to play in the appropriate age group and gender in a neighboring DSP District.
Tryouts and Tryout Registration (required to be placed on a team)
Each DSP District conducts formal tryouts to select players for each of their teams. Each District is responsible for scheduling their own tryouts. All Tryouts will be held the last week in April through the first week in May (weather permitting an extension may be applied). Players selected to play DSP will be notified by early June.
**All Players are required to be available to play in the season ending tournament taking place on August 3rd and 4th.**
Note: The preferred browsers for this registration are Internet Explorer and Chrome. If you are using Microsoft Edge or Safari you may need to change browsers in order to complete the registration.
Cost
The total cost for participation in DSP is $195.00 for players registered with Massachusetts Youth Soccer. This includes the $150 program registration fee and the $45 uniform cost (see below).
Uniforms
In addition each player is required to purchase a uniform kit (shirt, shorts, and socks). The cost of the uniform is $45.00 plus shipping and handling. Please note players will be responsible for purchasing their own uniform kit and will not be allowed to play until they have their uniform. If a player is selected for a team, he or she will be sent a link for an online payment form for the participation fee. Instructions will also be provided for ordering uniforms from our partner Soccer.com. Financial Aid is available for those who demonstrate a compelling need.
Payment
Once a player has selected for a DSP team, he or she must formally make their DSP Payment on-line for the Program. This is a different process and in addition to the process of registering for DSP Tryouts. Please register players immediately after receiving the confirmation notice from the coach. All registrations must be completed and submitted once notification has been received in order for uniform ordering to start.
