Players must attend at least one tryout to be placed on an A team (5th grade and up). Players should attempt to attend all tryouts if possible.
Tryouts do have $25 fee to cover administrative costs with US Club Soccer. This fee is applied to the full year cost of $625. If a player is not placed a team, the fee is refunded. Registration for tryouts (and the club) will require a PDF of a birth certificate and JPG head shot picture (shoulders and up).
Twinsburg AC requires all players to live within the TCSD. They do not need to attend Twinsburg Schools to play for the club, but they MUST live in the district.
As children grow, their interests will increase and vary. Twinsburg A.C. believes strongly that children should be able to pursue these interests even if only for a year or two. If soccer is an interest, there are various levels to choose from in the Cleveland area. Soccer in the United States has 3 basic levels – Recreational, Travel, and Premiere/Club. Premiere/Club has many levels within it as well- local leagues, to multistate regional, to national leagues. Each family must find the best level or mix of levels for their player AND the family. It is easy to be caught up in the FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) that all these factors can create. There is always soccer available for any player. Spending more time and money does not necessarily increase development and especially enjoyment.
In Twinsburg, our recreational level is AYSO. This provides soccer from age four up to high school age children. Games are within the city and between other teams within AYSO. This level requires the least financial and time commitment, and still offers children the chance to play soccer for many years.
Twinsburg A.C. is part of OHTSL, Ohio Travel Soccer League. Our teams range from 3rd to 8th grade. We have balanced teams at the younger ages. This allows for full development of all players. In 5th grade, The Club moves to 1st and 2nd team formation as numbers allow. Twinsburg A.C. Soccer teams play other communities from around Northeast Ohio. Travel can range from Canton to Geneva to Sandusky. The play level of OHTSL varies. Most ages have 5 divisions. The Club philosophy is based on development of players with an eye towards them playing in high school. Therefore, we strive to place teams in the division that will challenge them. This means many teams may only win half their games as they learn the game. The goal is developing each player and helping them grow their confidence and ability both on and off the field.
Some families play Premiere and Twinsburg A.C. Premiere Clubs have a cost of at least $2000 a year with required tournaments, uniforms, and other factors often pushing that annual price to over $7,000. If a player does play for two teams, communication with coaches/Team managers is critical. Each family must find the correct situation for them.

Rising costs have finally forced the club to raise fees for the upcoming season. Full season fees will now be $625 for all 3 sessions. The $25 tryout fee is applied to this amount. Once a player accepts their spot (separate registration after teams are announced in June), $125 will be due with that registration. Payments of $95 will automatically be charged on Aug 1, Sep 1, Oct 1, Nov 1, and Dec 1. We are a community club and strive to keep it family budget friendly. There will no longer be the $15 processing fee. The club will cover all processing fees. Sibling discount has been increased to $30.
When players were registered with the club this year, parents signed off on our code of conduct. We encourage our players, parents, and coaches to review this document. Please remember that our families represent our community at all games and tournaments. Many referees are teenagers, and all players are kids.
