What ages and program levels does Idaho Storm Soccer Club offer?The competitive program fields boys and girls teams, usually one or two per age bracket from about U10 through U18, all registered in the Idaho Premier League with US Club Soccer. Tryouts for the 2026–27 cycle welcome birth years 2017 through 2007. Storm Chasers recreational soccer introduces younger players without tryouts when that season is scheduled; it was not offered for fall 2025, so families should watch for the next opening.

Where does Idaho Storm train and play home games?Practices are set by each coach, typically two or three evenings per week, with most training in west Meridian at Jabil Soccer Fields (915 E Central Dr, Meridian) and at Cloverdale Seventh-day Adventist Church (925 N Cloverdale Rd, Boise). IPL schedules place league games around the Treasure Valley, mostly on Saturdays with occasional weeknight matches. The 2026–27 tryouts use Boise Cloverdale Seventh-Day Adventist Church at 1115 N Cloverdale Rd.

When are tryouts and how does registration work?Club-wide tryouts normally run the first week of June for the following fall and spring seasons. For 2026–27, registration is open for June 8 and June 9, 2026, with age-group time blocks listed on the club calendar. Families should pre-register through GotSport before attending. After tryouts, players who earn a roster spot complete registration and pay through PlayMetrics by club deadlines to hold their place.

What do competitive club fees and uniforms cost?Annual club tuition is about $750 to $850 per player depending on team and age, paid through PlayMetrics, the Storm Store, or check to the Boise mailing address. That fee covers league operations such as referees, fields, and US Club registration but not uniforms, tournaments, winter turf, or travel. Required uniform kits from the club vendor run roughly $250, ordered on the club’s cycle with new kits in odd-numbered years.

What is Idaho Storm’s approach to development and travel?The club balances competition with long-term skill growth, accountability, and respect, led by Director of Coaching Brandon Zimmerman. Training stays local when possible, and IPL play keeps most weekends in the Treasure Valley. Optional tournaments are chosen team by team; past destinations have included St. George, Jackson Hole, Twin Falls, Park City, and Las Vegas, with separate travel costs from tuition.
