Tryouts
2026/2027 Season
Welcome to the Placer United 2026/2027 season tryouts. Please review the important updates regarding significant changes to age group classifications and our tryout procedures.
Shift to New Age Group Formation
Starting with the 2026/2027 season, US Soccer/US Club Soccer is changing to new age group classifications. This means the birth-year cutoffs used in previous seasons have changed and now align more closely with school grades.
For a detailed explanation of why this change is occurring, please visit the US. Club Soccer Age Group Update page.
