Iowa Soccer has decided to change the process in which kids are placed on select teams due to COVID-19. Select tryouts will NOT be held this year. Select tryouts are replaced with a simple registration which shows your "intention to play" for a Club. There is no registration fee.
If you intend to play for Dowling Soccer Club Select program, please complete the following form, DSC Select Registration 2020.docx and email to dowlingselectsoccer2020@gmail.com
-Completed forms are due by June 12, 2020.
On June 17, 2020 families will receive an "Invite to Play." This replaces the traditional "Bid Day." Families will have until 8:00 pm to decide whether to accept or decline the invitation.
The cost of the program is as follows:
U11-14 $975.00 (This covers Fall and Spring)
U15-19 $925.00 (Fall Only) (U15 8th Graders will pay $975.00 and play in Fall and Spring)
There will be an initial fee of $100.00 due at the time of acceptance. There is a three installment option to pay the remaining balance (July 1, 2020, August 1, 2020, and September 1, 2020).
