TRAVEL SOCCER
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
The Deep Run Travel Soccer Program is based in Hilltown, Pennsylvania and provides an affordable community travel soccer program and offers high level training with professional coaches, club affiliations and like minded players and families. We try to field teams from U8 to U19 ages for both boys and girls with a focus on player development at the U8-U12 ages.
Deep Run is proud to announce Brian Hearn as taken the role of Director of Coaching beginning in June 2024. Coach Brian hit the ground running and prepared a month-long preseason clinic program for our travel soccer players. We are excited of the training opportunities Coach Brian will bring to our club.
Tryouts generally occur in the spring for the following soccer year. On a case-by-case basis, players may be able to tryout and join a team during the soccer year if the team has available roster slots. Team training begins at the end July and runs through the beginning of June. Generally, teams do not have any formal activity during the month of December. In the fall and spring, teams may travel to out-of-state events, train 1-3 times per week with league games on weekends and tournaments on select weekends. A player must be willing to attend most of the team’s training sessions and events.
FALL SEASON
Deep Run Valley SA Travel Soccer teams play in the Inter-County Youth Soccer League. The ICSL is a 10- game league with most games occurring on Saturdays. Teams play against other clubs in Bucks County, Montgomery County, Philadelphia and the Lehigh Valley.
Certain travel teams may also play in the EDP League or the ACELA League depending on their level of play and successful history in ICSL leagues. Teams that petition to play EDP and ACELA league may play teams throughout Eastern PA, New Jersey or Delaware.
Teams also generally play in 3-4 fall tournaments- 1 or 2 preseason tournaments, a Columbus Day Weekend Tournament, and our season ends with the Deep Run Turkey Tournament the weekend after Thanksgiving.
WINTER SEASON
Deep Run travel teams move indoors during the months of January - March. Teams choose between playing indoor soccer or futsal. Games can be played on Fridays, Saturdays or Sundays during the winter.
SPRING SEASON
Our spring season starts the end of March and goes until early June. Most teams have league play (Rock Spring League) and 2-3 tournament or state cup events. League games are generally played on Sundays during the spring season so as not to conflict with other spring sports.
AFFILIATION:
Deep Run Valley SA understands that as players reach middle school and high school ages, they look to other opportunities weather it be ECNL, GA or USYS-NL level play. With this movement to other clubs in mind, Deep Run Valley SA became an affiliate club of Hex FC at its Dominion location in the Spring of 2024. Hex FC fields teams for both boys and girls that play in the following leagues- ECNL, ECNL- RL, USYS-NL and EDP. For more information on Hex FC, please visit their website- https://www.hexfc.com/.
