Effective Fall 2026

Beginning in the 2026-27 season, NCYSA, in cooperation with U.S. Youth Soccer, will transition away from calendar-year (Jan. 1-Dec. 31) to school-year (Aug. 1-July 31) age group formations. In order to remain eligible to compete with NCYSA, CMSC must comply with this change.

We understand this change might cause some confusion and concern, so CMSC staff are here to answer any questions you have. Email [email protected].
