League Play:
-
Blacksnakes Club travel teams participate in the Snake River League (District II) of the IYSA. Club teams (U9-U19) travel throughout Eastern Idaho (most games are in Blackfoot, Pocatello, Idaho Falls, Rigby, and Rexburg) and have weeknight as well as Saturday games. All home matches are at the soccer fields across from Mountain View Middle School (MVMS).
Tournament Play:
-
BYSA strongly encourages Club teams to participate in club tournaments. Each club team is responsible for any tournament team and player fees (NOTE: tournament team and player fees are in addition to league player fees). BYSA currently registers and insures players with US Club soccer. Any team that wants to participate in the State Cup must register with IYSA.
​
BYSA accepts all players regardless of skill, and most teams do not require "tryouts."
