Competitive Soccer

Thomaston Soccer Club’s Competitive District Soccer program offers players the opportunity to strengthen their skills, compete against neighboring towns, and become part of a close-knit soccer community. Players, coaches, and families often form lasting friendships while sharing the excitement and energy of each season.


Despite often being called “travel soccer,” most games are played close to home. Each season typically includes:


  • Eight regular-season games: four in Thomaston and four away
  • Away games within the CJSA Northwest District
  • Travel times generally under 50 minutes
  • One to two team practices each week
  • Optional tournaments, winter indoor soccer, and other training opportunities


Is  Competitive Soccer Right for Your Player?

Competitive District Soccer is designed for players who are ready for a more advanced and committed soccer experience. Players should have an age-appropriate understanding of the game and be able to demonstrate the skills needed for competitive play.


Because roster sizes are limited, evaluations or tryouts may be required. Players who would benefit from additional development will be encouraged to continue building their skills through our recreational programs.

Additional Program Information

  • Players are strongly encouraged to compete within their appropriate age group.
  • Some teams may be co-ed. Girls may play on teams registered in a boys division, in accordance with league rules.
  • All players are registered with the Connecticut Junior Soccer Association and receive an official photo player pass.
  • Our long-term goal is to prepare players for continued success, including participation on middle and high school teams.

Join the Thomaston Soccer Club family and help your player take the next step in their soccer journey!
