About the HSC Representative Program

 The Hockessin Soccer Club Representative program is for children interested in playing at the highest competitive level. There are three program levels: Academy, Non-Academy and Developmental Academy. Whereas the Instructional program focuses locally within New Castle County or the club, the Representative (or Travel) program allows serious players the opportunity to test their soccer skills against players of other clubs.
Within the Tri-state area, there are approximately 75 soccer clubs within 90 miles of Hockessin. Typically, these clubs provide most of the league competition. Additionally, all representative teams participate in tournament play. Two to three times a year, teams will select from literally thousands of youth soccer tournaments in the area. Tournaments allow Representative teams to compete against clubs from outside of the tri-state area. From time to time, very competitive teams will even travel internationally to play the very best teams. In recent years, the Hockessin Soccer Club has been represented in several very prestigious tournaments locally and around the globe.
The intention of Representative soccer is for each team, regardless of level, to play teams of a similar competitive level. The goal is to develop soccer players of the highest caliber possible. The club does, however, sponsor various playing levels by age within the Representative program.
It should also be noted that Representative soccer requires a certain level of commitment from both the player and the parent. Practices are generally two times a week with games on either Saturday or Sunday. Teams generally play year round. The most competitive coaches are selected to lead these teams and typically most teams will hold a tryout once a year. The club advertises tryout dates once a year - typically in April or May. If you have a child that is interested in participating, please contact the appropriate coach listed under our teams page.
