What ages and program levels does Sierra Surf offer?Sierra Surf runs competitive boys and girls teams tied to NorCal Premier League, NPL, and regional league play, with Surf Nation and Surf Cup Sports access for training, events, and higher-level pathways. It also offers year-round competitive training, recreational leagues, camps, and skills clinics. Recent evaluation cycles have covered a broad birth-year range (about 2007 through 2019), with roster placement following tryout or evaluation sessions.
Where does Sierra Surf train or play?The club is rooted in Reno and serves Sparks, Carson City, Sun Valley, and surrounding Northern Nevada communities. Competitive teams should expect regional travel for NorCal Premier and NPL fixtures and additional trips for Surf-affiliated tournaments or showcases when teams advance to those events.
When are tryouts or evaluations, and how do families register?Start with BYGA tryout registration for Sierra Surf. Staff usually respond within about 48 hours with next steps. Evaluations are staggered by birth year: 2011-and-younger players are grouped around May 12–15, and 2010-and-older players around May 19–20. Confirm the active season’s dates in BYGA or with the director of coaching, since calendars refresh each year.
What do tryouts or registration cost?There is no universal tryout fee or full tuition table shared publicly. Team financial expectations come through the BYGA flow and in follow-up after evaluation, so families learn deposit, tuition, uniform, and travel expectations as placement conversations move forward.
What is the club’s mission, philosophy, or coaching approach?Sierra Surf prioritizes player-centered development with high-character staff, an inclusive and competitive environment, and a family culture built on trust. Core values are family, integrity, trust, effort, and respect, with Surf Nation membership reinforcing commitment, accountability, and community support alongside the club’s “Best of the Best” standard for experiences and opportunities.
How can families contact Sierra Surf or register?Register for evaluations through Sierra Surf’s BYGA tryout signup. Email Director of Coaching Debs Brereton at debsbrereton@sierrasurfsoccerclub.org for program or tryout questions, use the club’s general contact form for other topics, and follow @sierrasurfsoccerclub on Instagram for community updates.
