PRSC Travel Program 

Throughout PA West, there are six (6) divisions of play in the travel division. 

Divisions 1, 2, and 3 are considered Classic and commonly referred to as “Cup” teams. 

• They can draw kids from any area and are not limited by geographical areas. For more information on Classic play, please see the PA West website.

Divisions 4, 5, and 6 are composed of community-based programs that play games against other community-based programs. THIS IS US, PRSC!

• Division 4 provides the most competitive level of play for a community-based team. These teams play against other teams throughout PA West (including West Virginia, Altoona, and Erie). This Division requires the most travel among our community teams.
• Try-outs are held for this division.
• Division 5 and Division 6 are for those kids who are interested in playing in a less competitive travel league. Teams play against other teams in the North District (ex. Hampton, North Allegheny, North Hills, Shaler, etc.). There is still some travel within these divisions but on a much smaller scale.
• Try-outs are held for Division 5.

If your child is interested in joining one of our competitive travel teams, PRSC holds tryouts for D4 (and some D5) teams for the following Fall/Spring seasons. All kids in the PRSC program who are interested in playing in a more competitive environment are encouraged to tryout. Players who have made travel teams in the past are still required to try out for the following season as teams are formed based on the tryout results.

If your child does not make a D4/D5 travel roster, or your child chooses not to try out, they will be placed on a D6 travel team.
