* DISCLAMER Prince William Soccer supports U.S.Soccer s efforts to raise the standard of development for all youth players. The plan for implementation is developed with the most recent and best information currently available. PWSI reserves the right to make changes or adjustments based on new information from U.S. Soccer and/or youth organizations or best practices shared within the soccer community.
PDI - SMALL-SIDEDSTANDARDS Standardizes playing numbers and field dimensions Focused at players from the U-6 to U-12 age groups Field size is based on age groups 8U - 4v4 9U/10U - 7v7 11U/12U - 9v9 13U & older - 11v11
PDI - BIRTH YEAR REGISTRATION Align the start of the calendar year (January to December) All age groups simultaneously Align registration with the international standard Combat relative age effect Age group determined by end of calendar year (example below) Tryouts - Spring 2016 Start of play - Fall 2016 End of year - Summer 2017 2017 minus year of birth = age group 2002 2017-2002 = 15U
MOVING FORWARD For those looking to adopt the mandates in 2016617, here is a list that shows the birth year for that season. Again, please note that when determining the age group for a season, the year the competition ends should be used. Season 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19 2019-20 2020-21 2021-22 2022-23 2023-24 2024-25 Birth Year 2020 2019 U6 2018 U6 U7 2017 U6 U7 U8 2016 U6 U7 U8 U9 2015 U6 U7 U8 U9 U10 2014 U6 U7 U8 U9 U10 U11 2013 U6 U7 U8 U9 U10 U11 U12 2012 U6 U7 U8 U9 U10 U11 U12 U13 2011 U6 U7 U8 U9 U10 U11 U12 U13 U14 2010 U7 U8 U9 U10 U11 U12 U13 U14 U15 2009 U8 U9 U10 U11 U12 U13 U14 U15 U16 2008 U9 U10 U11 U12 U13 U14 U15 U16 U17 2007 U10 U11 U12 U13 U14 U15 U16 U17 U18 2006 U11 U12 U13 U14 U15 U16 U17 U18 U19 2005 U12 U13 U14 U15 U16 U17 U18 U19 2004 U13 U14 U15 U16 U17 U18 U19 2003 U14 U15 U16 U17 U18 U19 2002 U15 U16 U17 U18 U19 2001 U16 U17 U18 U19 2000 U17 U18 U19 1999 U18 U19 1998 U19 There is another very important component to understand about this chart. To avoid players aging out of an age group during a season, the new top age group for youth competitions is U19. This change aligns with the birth year standard and makes sure that players are not eliminated from participating during the second half of a season. In short, all the existing U18 leagues should become U19 in the 2016617 season and this change should cascade down the age groups (Ex: U17 becomes U18, U16 becomes U17, etc.).
