Q: What does the cost of registration include?
A: It includes jersey, shorts, socks, and trophy. It does not include shin guards or soccer shoes, which are mandatory. Your child should also bring a soccer ball & water bottle to every practice & game.

Q:What kind of shoes are required?
A: Under-5 and Under-6 players can wear regular tennis shoes or "turf" shoes. Under-7 and older need to wear soccer shoes. Sporting goods stores like Academy usually offer a package deal of shoes/shin guards/ball for about $25. Note that shoes made for baseball and football are unsafe for soccer and cannot be used.

A: We will have Under-5 and Under-6 coed teams. Girls and boys teams for U7, U8, U9, U10, U12, and possibly U14, U16 U18. Girls can opt to play on boys teams if they wish. We will try to help find other clubs able to accept any players we cannot place. See the Age Group Birth Dates table for the birth dates for each age group.

A: Fall season runs from early September to mid-November, the Spring season runs from early March to mid-May (about ten weeks in all).

A:Under-5 to Under-6 will play all games in Wells Branch. U7 – U10 age groups will have away games at Wells Point in Pflugerville and at fields in Hutto and Georgetown. U11 and older will also have away games in the Austin-area versus teams from other clubs.

Q: When and where are the practices?
A: Practices are generally twice a week but it is really up to your coach.

Q: Do you have to live in Wells Branch or attend Wells Branch Elementary to play in WBSA?
A: No. Anyone is welcome from anywhere. It's common to have players from all over the Austin area.

Q: How do I request to play with a specific team, coach or another player?
A: Put all special requests in the COMMENT section of the player registration form. Include the team name, coach name or other player name to assist in team formation. Note that players returning from the Spring season will typically be placed on the same team unless specifically requesting not to. Every effort will be made to accommodate player requests but some requests will not be honored due to some restrictions. It is not always possible to honor all requests.
