About
Crossfire Select Soccer Club is a nonprofit competitive youth soccer organization rooted in Redmond and the greater Seattle Eastside, serving families in Redmond, Kirkland, Sammamish, and nearby communities. The club operates inside Lake Washington Youth Soccer Association (LWYSA) as the select pathway for players who want stronger training and league play than recreational soccer while still leaving room for school, other sports, and life outside the game.
What the club offers
Programming centers on a nine-month competitive season for roughly Under-8 through Under-19 boys and girls teams placed in North Puget Sound League (NPSL) tiers labeled A through D so rosters group players of similar ability. Younger sides commonly play 7v7 or 9v9 formats before moving to full-sided league matches. The club fields dozens of teams across age bands and historically grew from a small LWYSA Select experiment in 2003 into one of Washington’s largest select programs, hosting the Crossfire Select Cup tournament that draws hundreds of out-of-state teams. Optional spring NPSL blocks, summer tournaments (including the club’s own cup and the XF Labor Day Cup), and add-on training such as Golden Boot, Friday goal-scoring sessions led by former MLS player Brad Evans, free goalkeeper blocks, monthly technical sessions for U9–U12, spring futsal, and Purely Optional Playground Soccer (POPS) round out the calendar.
Season rhythm and training
June through August teams train twice weekly in 90-minute sessions and may enter up to four summer tournaments. NPSL fall league for U9–U14 and boys U15–U19 typically runs ten to twelve matches from the weekend after Labor Day through late November with a Thanksgiving break. High-school-age girls U15–U19 shift to a December–March NPSL block aligned with school calendars, while boys U15–U19 hold mid-February tryouts before a late-February-to-early-April spring NPSL season for U9–U14. January brings Washington Youth Soccer State Cup activity, March offers optional low-cost futsal, and May hosts tryouts for most age groups. Home training and tournament play center on 60 Acres Soccer Fields at 15200 NE 116th Street in Redmond.
Philosophy and placement
The mission emphasizes integrity, respect, sportsmanship, lifelong love of the game, community, and a player-development pathway where fun and growth matter as much as results—winning should follow proper development, not replace it. Crossfire Select explicitly welcomes multi-sport athletes but expects soccer practices and games to take priority during the soccer season, including some Sunday league fixtures for younger ages. Every player re-tryouts annually; head coaches evaluate technical and tactical skill, effort, and attitude over two tryout days with small-sided games on day one and larger-sided games on day two. Families receive roster offers by tryout number and must accept or decline within twenty-four hours.
Costs and registration
Published club fees are $799 for U8 and $999 for U9–U19, plus typical team fees of $150–$300 collected at formation meetings and uniforms or gear around $250–$300 on a two-year cycle. Registration requires a twenty-percent non-refundable deposit with payment-plan options outlined during online signup. Tryout pre-registration is $20 online or $25 the day of tryouts (cash and checks are not accepted on the field). Optional spring league soccer for returning U9–U14 players costs $195 for six games and six practices. Many supplemental trainings—goalkeeper sessions, technical trainer blocks, Golden Boot, one.soccer summer camp week, and POPS—are free for current Crossfire Select players.

Frequently asked questions
Where do Crossfire Select teams train and play home games?Training and home tournament activity center on 60 Acres Soccer Fields at 15200 NE 116th Street in Redmond, Washington. NPSL away matches can reach opponents across the Puget Sound region depending on age group and division. The club serves Redmond, Kirkland, Sammamish, and surrounding Eastside communities.
How do tryouts work and what do they cost?All players try out each year over two sessions with check-in twenty to twenty-five minutes early, numbered jerseys, small-sided games on day one, and larger-sided games on day two. Pre-registration is $20 online or $25 on tryout day; field payments are not accepted and fees are non-refundable. Results post by tryout number the next day, and families must email coaches within twenty-four hours to accept or decline a roster spot.
What are typical club fees and other costs?Published club fees are $799 for U8 and $999 for U9–U19, with a twenty-percent non-refundable deposit at registration and payment-plan options during online signup. Teams usually collect another $150–$300 in team fees at formation meetings, and uniforms or gear run about $250–$300 on a two-year cycle. Optional spring NPSL soccer for returning U9–U14 players is $195 for six games and six practices.
How is Crossfire Select different from recreational soccer or Crossfire Premier?LWYSA recreational programs offer community fall and spring seasons without tryouts for U7–U19. Crossfire Select adds tryouts, twice-weekly training during the nine-month competitive calendar, NPSL league play, and tiered A–D teams while still welcoming athletes who play other sports. Crossfire Premier is the year-round highest-commitment Eastside pathway for families who want ECNL-level development rather than the select schedule described here.
