SEFPL FAQS
What is the time commitment?
Three field training sessions per week and goalkeeper training twice per week across the fall, winter and spring, with the season running
August 10, 2026 through May 30, 2027 at Cypress Park.
How do evaluations and team placement work?
Register for an evaluation through the club. Players are seen by the coaching staff and directors, and placement is confirmed by team

Very little. League play is regional within the Southeast Florida Premier League, and teams attend four to five tournaments, most of them
local.
What does the fee include, and are payment plans available?
The club fee is $2,375 for U9–U10, covering coaching and training, game day operations, registration and insurance, league fees and
entry events, team equipment and PlayMetrics. Payment plans are available for every team. Uniforms, tournaments and coach travel are
additional.
