We recommend you review all service providers and make whatever investigation you feel necessary or appropriate before proceeding with participating in any event or program or proceeding with any transaction with any third party.
We commonly get asked about how kids can keep playing over the summer and have annually provided a list of Travel Ball Clubs, Camps, and Leagues that are available for various ages and levels of play. NONE of these opportunities are endorsements by PCYLO and we are extremely fortunate in Park City and in Utah to have some of the best resources available to our players in the West and facilities and coaching that is on par with some of the best programs and communities in the country in our quaint little ski town we call Park City. There is absolutely the perfect program and opportunity to play for EVERY kid who wants to keep playing. And first and foremost, there is always a field with a goal or a wall available to work on your game by yourself or better yet with a buddy or two. It’s free play that will make the biggest difference in your child’s game—hitting on both our pillars at PCYLO—progression of play/skill and love for the game.
In absolutely no particular order of preference, here is a list of opportunities. This doesn’t represent ALL of them but more the most popular and successful programs that our coaches have seen and have experience with…
