What ages and program levels does Oregon Soccer Club offer?Young players enter 4U/5U in-house fun games, then move through 6U–8U in-house and 9U/10U recreational training that stresses skills over scores. The WYSA-accredited Academy covers 8U Pre-Academy plus 9U and 10U with twice-weekly professional-led sessions as a bridge to competitive play. Competitive teams serve older age groups with higher training loads and MAYSA league play, sometimes supplemented by WYSA state-league teams. Recreational sides continue past 10U for families who want soccer without the competitive pathway, and recreational rostering cannot use talent-based tryouts under U.S. Youth Soccer rules.
About
Oregon Soccer Club (Oregon SC) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit youth soccer organization based in Oregon, Wisconsin, serving local families and nearby Madison-area communities. The club blends community access with structured pathways: youngest players start in fun in-house sessions, recreational programming keeps the focus on enjoyment and development, the Wisconsin Youth Soccer Association (WYSA)–accredited Academy bridges toward higher demands, and competitive teams train for Madison Area Youth Soccer Association (MAYSA) and select Wisconsin Youth Soccer Association state-league placement.
What the club offers
In-house programming begins at 4U/5U with ball-centered games aligned to U.S. Youth Soccer and U.S. Soccer Federation guidance for early movement and love of the game. The 6U–8U in-house track and the 9U/10U recreational band emphasize individual skill growth without pressure on results. The Academy serves 8U Pre-Academy plus 9U and 10U boys and girls with twice-weekly training led by professional coaches under a WYSA-accredited curriculum that feeds the competitive program. Competitive squads prioritize individual development inside a possession-friendly club style, generally with professionally led training and licensing expectations for coaches. Recreational sides through 10U follow statewide recreational classification rules in Wisconsin, and Oregon SC still offers recreational teams for older ages so busy or cost-conscious families can stay on the field; rosters form openly without talent-based tryouts for recreational teams, consistent with U.S. Youth Soccer policy.
Training, league play, and facilities
Competitive teams primarily compete in MAYSA, while the club may place chosen sides into WYSA state leagues when appropriate. Older competitive groups typically carry three weekly practices—two longer sessions plus a shorter shared block—so training volume rises with age. Winter skills sessions on weekends, capped at 20 players per block, are open to 7U-and-older players already enrolled for the current club season and run in two segments across December–February. Since early 2025 the club has trained year-round in a 9,000-square-foot indoor facility leased at 490 N. Burr Oak Ave., Oregon, with court flooring, nearby restrooms, a bottle-filling fountain, and dedicated storage. Outdoor home training and matches use Oregon SC field standards that mark spectator and technical areas; families are asked to respect neighboring properties and pack out trash.
Mission, development model, and family support
The mission is to give local youth opportunity and coaching to learn soccer at recreational or competitive levels while teaching skills, sportsmanship, teamwork, respect, fair play, and enjoyment of the game. Since 2017–18 the club has followed a club-based development model: age-appropriate curriculum, possession-oriented ideas, and encouragement for decision-making in every position. Winning matters on game day, but long-term player growth—not a perfect record—drives coaching choices so players can learn from mistakes. Oregon SC partners with the Soccer Parenting Association so families receive access to the Soccer Parent Resource Center for parent education alongside on-field programming.
2026-2027 program structure and age-group rules
Beginning in 2026–2027, Oregon SC retires separate “Competitive” and “Recreational” program labels and instead uses tiered team colors inside MAYSA and WYSA pathways. U11/U12 Orange and Black teams in MAYSA share one fee level, with a higher fee for WYSA state-league teams; U13 and older follow the same Orange/Black pattern versus state-league pricing. U9/U10 Gray teams cost less than Orange, Black, or White; U11 and older Gray remains below Orange and Black pricing at those ages. U9 and older Tangerine carries the lowest fee band. Academy keeps its WYSA Academy title with a single Academy fee for every Academy player, Pre-Academy charges one uniform Pre-Academy fee, and in-house U4–U8 stays largely the same while the club trials possible format tweaks in spring 2026. U.S. Youth Soccer returns to seasonal birth-year age groups for WYSA, MAYSA, and Oregon SC in 2026–2027; players born in August may either play up with grade peers or stay in their birth-year group, while playing down for grade generally needs a waiver that is easier for MAYSA league play than for WYSA state-league or some tournaments.

Frequently asked questions
Where does Oregon SC train and play?League matches and outdoor practices use Oregon SC field locations around the Oregon area within MAYSA scheduling, with competitive teams sometimes entering WYSA state leagues. Since early 2025 the club’s indoor training center has operated at 490 N. Burr Oak Ave., Oregon, Wisconsin—a 9,000-square-foot court with restrooms, a bottle-filling fountain, and club storage. Winter skills sessions run on weekends for enrolled 7U-and-older players during the offseason months.
How is the club changing programs for 2026–2027?Starting in 2026–2027 Oregon SC replaces separate Competitive and Recreational program names with color-tiered teams across MAYSA and WYSA. Orange and Black teams share fee levels within MAYSA at U11/U12 and again at U13+, with higher fees when a squad plays WYSA state league. Gray tiers cost less than Orange, Black, or White at U9/U10 and remain below Orange and Black from U11 onward. Tangerine from U9 up carries the lowest fee band. Academy keeps one flat Academy fee, Pre-Academy keeps one flat Pre-Academy fee, and in-house U4–U8 stays largely the same aside from possible spring 2026 format pilots. Age groups shift back to U.S. Youth Soccer seasonal birth years; August birthdays may play up with classmates or stay with their birth year, and playing down usually needs a waiver that is harder for state-league and some tournament play.
What is Oregon SC’s coaching philosophy?The club teaches possession-minded, decision-driven soccer through a shared age-based curriculum. Competitive training leans on professional coaches with strong licensing and youth experience, while recreational coaching relies on volunteer parents focused on fun and fundamentals. Club leaders treat long-term player growth as the main success measure, accepting mistakes as part of learning even when results fluctuate.
