Players in the Travel League play on a Pottsville travel team against other teams in the Reading Berks Junior Soccer League. Home games are played on our field on the Gordon Nagle Trail. Away games are played at other Youth complexes throughout Schuylkill and Berks Counties. A spot on a travel team is not guaranteed. If a travel team is not formed at your age group or a player is not selected for a travel team, they will be guaranteed to play on a team in our rec league. Teams typically practice twice a week starting late July/early August (days chosen by the coach). Games typically start late August/early September and are played once a week on a Saturday or Sunday.
