As with most Indiana youth soccer clubs, the Valpo Soccer Club is bound by a set of rules, policies, requirements, and bylaws. As agreed upon by our governing board of directors, our Northwest Indiana soccer club adheres to a foundation established by our Indiana soccer league rules and policies.
From youth soccer eligibility requirements to the operating bylaws and constitution, the Valpo Soccer Club operates under and upholds the standards defined in our organizational bylaws.
The foundational rules and policies that support our Indiana soccer club adhere to standards set by the Soccer Association for Youth (SAY), as well as the Northwest Indiana Soccer League (NWISL). Other youth soccer teams that the Valpo Soccer Club plays in regular competition within the NWISL have similar rules, policies and bylaws and operate under similar requirements and restrictions as our Indiana youth soccer club does.
Of particular interest to player's families in our soccer club is player age eligibility requirements.
