West End Soccer Association, based in Ewing (NJ) Township, offers a competitive division, also known as Travel Soccer. The program provides an opportunity for young players to develop their potential in a high quality and competitive soccer program. WESA teams are currently playing (Fall and Spring seasons) in the Mid-New Jersey Youth Soccer Association, a league of 700+ teams affiliated with New Jersey Youth Soccer (NJYSA).

The Travel Soccer Year starts September 1 and ends August 31 the following year. Teams are grouped by age (see table below). Mandatory tryouts are held each June to select players for the upcoming fall and spring seasons.Travel registration fees vary based on the level of training that each travel team participates in. Each team also pays for tournament costs and team uniforms.

A Committment

The West End Soccer community is known for a strong sense of club pride among players and their families. Having been in existence for almost 40 years, the club has been the home to State champions and players who went on to compete in college soccer. We are fortunate to have alumni of our program involved in coaching and administrating the club.

The West End Competitive Soccer Division is governed by The West End Constitution and By-Laws, and is administrated by the Travel Subcommittee in conjunction with the Executive Board.
