UNIFORM & EQUIPMENT REQUIRED
At MTsc U, each age bracket uses one of four different uniform color combinations consisting of: red, white, black and/or royal blue. See the Uniform Policy on the website. All uniforms cost the same fee, due at registration: $45.00 for all REC/FT and SNL players The uniform program is designed to allow a continuously registering player to use his/her uniform for up to 2 years* before being required to purchase a new uniform. Uniform sizes are selected during online registration and those sizes will be ordered. Samples are available for sizing at Mac’s Soccer Shack. Re-orders due to incorrect size will be at the parents' expense.
* 2 years is based on a player remaining in the MTsc U REC program for 4 consecutive seasons beginning as a U5, U7, U9 or U11 player thus a RETURNING player. As each odd number bracket a new uniform must be purchased in addition to if a player is considered NEW which means they did not play at MTsc U during the prior season.
