Select Program
Taking Success
To Another Level
Players in our Select program experience the thrill of high-level soccer competition under the instruction and guidance of PSU’s experienced and licensed coaches. In this program players receive high-level instruction on:
- Individual skills and team concepts
- The associative game, including an understanding of each player’s role based on different elements of the game (i.e. position of ball, teammates, opponents, goal and time and space)
- The 4 phases of the game and learn to how to generate superiorities in all areas of the field
- Pre-competition routines, mental preparation goal setting, and effective ways to prepare for competition
- Fundamental aspects of all team sports (communication, sportsmanship, leadership, effort, etc.)
Players in PSU’s Select program are held to high standards both on and off the field, requiring a significant commitment from every player in the program. To be successful within the program, players will be expected to:
- Be passionate about playing soccer
- Continually work hard to develop their soccer skills and abilities (including, at times, training individually at home)
- Be invested in growing their character
Expectations are high in PSU’s Select program and the program is difficult at times. Therefore, it isn’t a good fit for everyone. However, players who go through the program will receive a rewarding experience that will set players up well for wherever their soccer journey – or life journey – may take them.

*The number and/or duration of practices, games, camps, tournaments, and other PSU events are not guaranteed. Weather, field conditions, and unforeseen circumstances will require the cancellation of these events from time to time. When this happens, PSU will do all we can to reschedule the cancelled event, but it may not be feasible to do so for every event.
**Actual season length depends on game schedule
***PSU changes jersey designs every two years. Players who have a current jersey design from the previous season may use the same jersey, effectively eliminating the uniform fee. Individual uniform components may also be purchased during non-design change seasons. The full Uniform Policy can be found on the Policies page of PSU’s website.
****Pre-offer players are asked to attend tryouts to meet potential new teammates and provide a quality tryout environment for those trying out for the team. There is no fee for tryouts for players who accepted their preoffer.
*****Tournaments are coordinated by PSU. However, from time to time, weather, field conditions, and unforeseen circumstances can cause tournaments to be cancelled. When this happens, PSU will make every attempt to reschedule a different tournament later that same season or, in the case of a fall tournament that can’t be rescheduled, reschedule a spring tournament in its place. In the event PSU cannot reschedule a tournament by the conclusion of the spring season, parents will be provided a prorated refund of the tournament fees charged. No refunds are provided for “incomplete” tournaments or tournaments cancelled after any games have been played
