House League Programs

Introduction to our Travel Programs:

The Buffalo Soccer Club (BSC) program is available for any child or parent new to soccer.  Children and parent coaches that participated in soccer in the past or that have no previous soccer experience are encouraged to join the BSC House League which runs through U14.  Registration is done on a rolling basis, but guaranteed placement is based on a first-come, first-serve basis.  We frequently are able to place kids on teams anytime through the year so please contact the Program Director if you are interested midseason.  The club reimburses all coaching license training required by NYSWYSA and encourages all parent coaches to pursue higher level licenses.
The JFK Center is our home field and is used for our House League and Travel Team Home games.
