What ages and program levels does Regent Soccer Club offer?Regent serves 6U through 19U. Recreational paths include 6U Kinde, 7U–8U in-house, and 9U–10U Alliance. Developmental options add MAYSA 9U–10U with a trainer night and Gold 11U–14U without tryouts. Competitive Blue 11U–14U requires tryouts and paid coaching. High school girls play club in the fall and high school boys in the spring, with interest and registration handled through PlayMetrics rather than a traditional tryout.
About
Regent Soccer Club, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit youth soccer organization rooted on Madison’s near-west side. The club builds teams around school and neighborhood connections and keeps programming inclusive, safe, and player-centered from first touches through high school club seasons in the Madison Area Youth Soccer Association (MAYSA).
Programs from 6U through high school
Younger players start in 6U “Kinde” (4K and kindergarten) and 7U–8U in-house soccer against other Regent teams and Shorewood. Nine- and ten-year-olds can stay recreational in the Alliance league with Shorewood, Middleton United, and Regent neighbors, or join MAYSA league teams that add a licensed trainer session each week alongside volunteer coaching. From 11U through 14U, Gold is developmental: no tryout, two practices a week split between a paid trainer and a parent coach, and MAYSA travel generally within about an hour. Blue is competitive: tryouts required, two practices a week with a paid coach, MAYSA league play, and one or two tournaments a season. High school girls play club soccer in the fall only; high school boys play in the spring only. Those teams do not use in-person tryouts—families start in PlayMetrics to signal interest, then follow offer and registration steps with paid coaching and MAYSA schedules.
Mission, environment, and extra training
Regent’s mission is to give the community an inclusive, fun, learning-focused soccer home. Club values stress safety, affordability, respect for players, officials, coaches, parents, and fans, development at every skill level, sportsmanship, love of the game, steady improvement of facilities and coaching, and school- or neighborhood-based rosters. Beyond league nights, Regent runs add-ons such as goalkeeper training, winter Friday futsal, and skills sessions over the year.
Registration rhythm and seasonal structure
Registration for each playing year opens in May, with teams formed to play fall and spring together. High school girls remain fall-only and high school boys spring-only under that same annual calendar. Beginning with the 2026–27 playing year, age groups align to an August 1–July 31 seasonal year for team formation to match US Youth Soccer, MAYSA, and Wisconsin Youth Soccer Association guidance; families with edge-case eighth-grade birth years should email the registrar for options. General program signup, high school interest, tryout signup, and payments flow through PlayMetrics. Tryout registration is separate from program registration and carries its own fee.
Blue tryouts, offers, and high school signup
Blue tryouts are a placement tool: every player who completes Blue tryout registration receives a Blue or Gold offer for the coming year rather than being cut from the club. Online tryout registration costs $40 plus card processing and closes twenty-four hours before the first night of each age group; walk-up registration at the field is $80. Tryouts use two ninety-minute evenings per age group; players should plan to attend both nights, arrive early with water and sun protection, and keep PlayMetrics contact details current. For the 2026–27 playing year, girls and boys sessions are staggered on the early-June calendar (for example, 11U June 1–2 with a June 3 rain date; 12U June 4–6; 13U June 7–8 and 11; 14U June 9–11), with alliance notifications targeted around June 12. Offer letters arrive in PlayMetrics starting in mid-June; families have twenty-four hours to accept or decline, then finish program registration and payment in PlayMetrics, with payment plans available and registration balances due by November 1 unless a team plan says otherwise. High school girls sign up in PlayMetrics in early spring with a June 28 deadline for interest; offers and registration follow in late June. High school boys sign up starting in early October with a November 28 deadline; offers and registration land in early December. Before MAYSA rosters finalize, players need date-of-birth verification through the club administrator when required and a current photo on the PlayMetrics profile.
Fall 2025 and Spring 2026 registration fees
Core registration for the combined fall-and-spring year (May–July enrollments) runs $180 for in-house 6U–8U, $200 for Alliance 9U–10U, $200 for MAYSA 9U–10U, $275 for Gold 11U–14U, $275 for Blue 11U–14U, and $175 for high school (girls fall-only or boys spring-only as applicable). Spring-only in-house 6U–8U is $110 when roster space allows. Those amounts cover the club registration portion; families should also budget uniforms, referees where leagues require them, trainers or coaches as spelled out per program, and optional tournaments or winter leagues. Team managers usually collect season coach, referee, and tournament shares separately before each season half. Uniforms follow a two-year cycle; fall 2026 opens a new kit cycle that runs through 2027–28.
Robin Carre scholarships and financial aid
Need-based help through the Robin Carre Scholarship Fund can cover online registration, uniforms (up to every two years), referees, coaching shares, and tournament costs for qualifying families. Priority aligns with Madison Metropolitan School District free- and reduced-price lunch guidelines, and the club also considers documented hardship. Applications open May 1 for the 2025–26 playing year with a July 1 deadline (high school boys use a November 28 deadline), must be submitted in PlayMetrics before player registration, and renew annually. Most awardees still pay a small acceptance fee unless they request a waiver in the application before registering.

Frequently asked questions
Where do Regent teams train, play, and hold tryouts?The club is based on Madison’s near-west side. Younger in-house and Alliance teams rotate among Regent, Shorewood, and neighboring club fields as assignments shift each season, while MAYSA league travel can reach opponents within about an hour. Blue tryouts for 11U–14U use paired evening sessions in early June; Reddan Soccer Park is the regular outdoor venue with rain makeup nights on the tryout schedule, and any field change is communicated through PlayMetrics.
When are tryouts, registration, and key meetings for competitive placement?Annual program registration opens in May. For Blue placement toward the 2026–27 playing year, online tryout registration stays open until twenty-four hours before each age group’s first night, with June 2026 sessions scheduled by birth-year band (for example 11U June 1–2, 12U June 4–5, 13U June 7–8, 14U June 9–10, each with a scheduled rain makeup night). A March 11, 2026 evening Zoom meeting walks families through Gold versus Blue before tryout season. Offer notifications begin in mid-June. High school girls declare interest in PlayMetrics by June 28 for late-June offers; high school boys use an October–November window with a November 28 deadline and early-December offers.
What do tryouts cost compared with season registration?Blue tryout signup is $40 online plus card processing if families register before the twenty-four-hour cutoff, or $80 if they register at the field. That fee is separate from program tuition. For Fall 2025 and Spring 2026, annual club registration runs $180 for in-house 6U–8U, $200 for Alliance or MAYSA 9U–10U, $275 for Gold or Blue 11U–14U, and $175 for high school, with $110 spring-only in-house pricing when space allows. Uniforms, referees, trainers, coaches, and optional tournaments or winter leagues add to those base amounts.
How does financial assistance work?The Robin Carre Scholarship Fund supplies full or partial aid tied to Madison Metropolitan School District free- and reduced-price lunch eligibility or documented hardship. Awards can cover registration, uniforms on a two-year rhythm, referees, coaching shares, and tournaments depending on the program. Families submit the PlayMetrics financial aid application before registering; for 2025–26 the window opens May 1 with a July 1 deadline except high school boys, who use November 28. Most recipients still pay a modest acceptance fee unless they request a waiver in the application first. Questions go to regentfinancialaidinfo@gmail.com.
How can families contact Regent or get updates?Email regentregistrar@gmail.com for registration, roster, uniform replacement questions for 6U and 8U players, and tryout conflicts. Use PlayMetrics for program signup, tryout signup, high school interest, scholarship applications, and offer responses. Mail reaches PO Box 5413, Madison, WI 53705.
