The Mira Costa Boys Soccer program consists of 3 teams: Frosh/Soph, Junior Varsity and Varsity. It is a winter sport and the official season runs from mid-November to mid-February. For Varsity, the CIF playoffs can continue through the first week of March.
The Boys Soccer class is a full year. The players are required to be in the fall pre-season training class if they are not participating in a fall sport. In the post-season, the players may join another sport or remain in the soccer class.
During the season, practice runs from approximately 2:00-4:30pm every weekday other than game days. Varsity and Frosh-Soph games are usually at 3:00 or 3:30pm, and JV games are usually at 4:30 or 5pm. In the pre- and post-season, the soccer class runs from 2-3pm.
There are three try-out periods for interested new players: a 6-week summer school class, a 5-day after school try-out in early September, and the last chance is a 5-day after school try-out in early November.
