2019-2020 Select Soccer Program

The Dowling Select Soccer Program looks for players not only with skills on the field, but also a great attitude, vision, and work ethic. Our Select Program provides our players with the opportunity to compete at a highly competitive level. We will continue to focus on our players' technique and tactical skills and taking their play to a higher level.

The Select program consists of the fall and spring seasons for each school year. Each player is required to tryout each year. Tryouts are only held in the summer for both seasons and there are no tryouts held for the spring season. Once a player accepts a bid from the Dowling Soccer Club, the player is committed for both the fall and spring season. Coaches are certified by US Soccer at the national levels. Some of our coaches are also on staff at the high school level.

The Dowling Select Soccer Program looks for players not only with skills on the field, but also a great attitude, vision, and work ethic. Our Select Program provides our players with the opportunity to compete at a more competitive level. We will continue to focus on our players' technique and tactical skills and taking their play to a higher level.

LOCATION: All training will be held at select fields at Soccer South.
