East Select soccer mission is to provide competitive options for players in the East attendance district. The teams will be entered into competitive MYSA leagues, play in summer tournaments, and be entered into indoor tournaments at the highest levels possible. The main goal is to develop each player's individual skills to the fullest potential on and off the field, while promoting team play, sportsmanship, and the enjoyment of playing soccer.

Why ESS The ESS program will provide another option for players to play at a higher level of soccer. Because ESS is limited to players from the East Club area, more East players can play competitive soccer in our area. Note: All funds stay in the East Select Soccer program and none are given to the Duluth East High School program.
Coaching The coaches are current of former players with extensive soccer experience at the highest level including high school and college. They are encouraged and supported to advance their level of knowledge by attending MYSA sponsored coaching clinics. They understand the game and know how to teach the skills and techniques that the players will need to play at this high level of competition. They function as role models, coaches, and mentors.
ESS distinguishes itself from other competitive programs by providing teams with extensive exposure to professional coaches from around the world. In the past, we have had coaches from Australia, Slovakia, Wales, England, and Scotland. These coaches have extensive professional experience and are an integral part of the ESS program. Foreign coaches practice with each team on a regular basis and provide support to our own club coaches.
What is Competitive Soccer Competitive soccer offers local players the opportunity to compete against skilled teams from inside and outside the area.
Competitive soccer includes more practice and development work, and requires more commitment from both players and parents. Teams could play between 5 and 7 away games in the Twin Cities on weekday evenings. Ess competitive programs use tryouts or selections to determine which players will participate. Ess teams may travel to one or more tournaments in the twin cities in addition to the Lake Superior Open hosted by Ess. All teams involved in this program will recieve foreign professional coaching as a supplement to our own licensed and trained team coaches.
