April 9th marks an exciting and historic moment for BUSA–Pittsfield as we kick off our very first Spring Season competing in the Capital District Youth Soccer League (CDYSL)—a well-established regional youth soccer competition that brings together clubs from across New York and surrounding areas, providing a structured, competitive environment focused on long-term player development.
Our training sessions and home games will take place at Berkshire Community College (BCC), giving our players a consistent and professional setting to train and compete throughout the season.
We’re ready to get started, and Coach Rafa is already in the United States, prepared to begin working with our players from day one. His presence sets the tone for what we want this season to be—organized, competitive, and focused on development.
There’s also an exciting new addition this season: for the first time, our travel teams will have the opportunity to host official matches at home during the competition. This allows our players to compete in a familiar environment while strengthening the connection with our local community at BCC.
This first Spring Season, competing in a league as competitive and organized as the CDYSL, is just the beginning for BUSA–Pittsfield, and we’re looking forward to everything that’s ahead.
