Welcome to the TYSA!

We serve the towns of Newbury, Rowley and Salisbury.

Dear Triton Youth Soccer Families,

As we have had some transition within our board this year, we’d like to share some important updates about our mission, programs, and the steps we’re taking to ensure every player has the best possible experience—on and off the field.

Our Mission & Vision

The Triton Youth Soccer Association is dedicated to providing a safe, inclusive, and competitive environment where players of all abilities can develop their skills, grow as individuals, and build a lifelong love for the game. Through our Intramural and Travel Programs, we aim to balance fun, foundational learning with advanced opportunities for those seeking higher-level competition.

We envision a community where every player is supported, challenged, and inspired—whether stepping on the field for the first time or striving to compete at a higher level.

Why Player Evaluations Matter

One of the key components of our Travel Program is seasonal player evaluations—and we want to explain why these are so important:

  • Fair & Objective Team Placement: By using third-party evaluators, we remove bias and ensure players are assessed fairly based on skill, effort, and readiness for competitive play.

  • Development-Focused Assessments: Evaluations help us understand each player’s current stage of development and identify the best environment for them to grow.

  • Team Balance & Safety: Proper placement ensures that teams are evenly matched in skill, which creates more enjoyable games and safer play for all involved.

  • Transparent Process: Families can feel confident knowing that the evaluation process is structured, consistent, and grounded in development—not politics or favoritism.

Player evaluations for the Fall 2025 season will be held during May 27-29 and June 2 (rain dates June 3-4). More details about times, locations, and what to expect will be shared shortly.

Other Ways We Support Our Mission

  • Competitive Playing Opportunities
    We offer access to high-level winter leagues and seasonal tournaments for players seeking greater challenges and year-round development.

  • Coaching Education & Support
    Our coaches continue their own development through certification programs, clinics, and mentoring, helping them support each player with skill and care.

  • Financial Transparency & Accountability
    We are committed to clear, responsible budgeting and open communication to ensure that every dollar supports our players and programs.

We’re proud of the continued growth of our soccer community and thankful for your support. With strong programs, dedicated volunteers, and your involvement, we look forward to many more fantastic seasons of soccer. 

If you have any questions about evaluations or anything else, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Warm regards,

Olivia MacDonald

Intramural Soccer Program

TYSA is changing the structure of the intramural and is aiming to have all age groups primarily run by parents. Parent volunteers will be given everything they need (supplies, team jerseys, suggested structure of practices, etc.). If you are open to coaching (even helping as an assistant coach), please reach out to Chris King:
