Emerald City Football Club has open roster spots in most age groups for the 2026–27 season. The Club invites interested players to join team practices the week of Sept. 7, to meet coaches and participate in training as a tryout. Tryouts are free, though registration is required. Prospective players can attend one or both of the tryout sessions listed for their age group.
Players invited to join teams will play for the remainder of the 2026–27 season, September through April for U11 to U14 age groups, and September through February for boys’ U15 to U19 age groups.
How to try out:
- Determine your player’s current age group, according to US Club Soccer’s updated age-group system.
- Register to try out using ECFC’s tryout registration (create a Teamsnap account if needed).
- Make a note of practice dates, times and locations listed below for your player’s age group.
- Show up 15 minutes early, with cleats, shin guards and a water bottle, and introduce yourself to an Emerald City coach. Tell them your age group and you’ll be directed to the right team/area.
- Play hard and have fun! Speak to the coach at the end of the session.
