The North Mississauga Soccer Club
will, to the best of its ability, offer a tiered system
of play for its members. The type of team shall
categorize the three levels of play (pyramid of play).
The three are known as House League teams, All-star
“Tournament” teams and Representative teams.
All-star “Tournament” teams will participate in
tournaments throughout the outdoor season. These teams
will be comprised of House League players that have been
selected through a try-out process. Additional House
League players may be asked to play on a “call up”
basis. The All-star “Tournament” team does not take
precedent over the House League team, with the exception
of weekend House League practices that can be missed for
an All-star tournament. All games for House League must
be attended before any All-star “Tournament” team
function is attended. In this case House League will be
the first priority.
Once again the NMSC will be offering our House League
players the opportunity to compete at a higher level.
The following describes our All-Star Program;
Both Boys and Girls will have opportunities to play
All-star from U8 to U18.
To ensure all House League players are offered an
opportunity to tryout for an All-star team the club will
be sponsoring open tryouts for Boys and Girls, dates,
times and venues can be found of the NMSC website or by
contacting the NMSC Technical Director.
All-star coaches must participate in the open tryouts
before making their final player selections. Player
selection will be based on technical skills (first
touch, passing, receiving) attitude, work ethic, coach
ability, general athletic ability (including running
speed, power, endurance).
All-star coaches must have a minimum Ontario Soccer
Association Community Coach Youth 2 Certification
Players must be prepared to commit to one additional
practice per week and 4-6 weekend tournaments.
Tournaments may involve some travel. Practices may be
scheduled on Friday evenings or some weekends so as to
avoid conflicts with House League schedules and ensure
field availability.
