It’s time to dust off those cleats and shin protectors; youth soccer season is upon us once again.

Play in the Central Pennsylvania Youth Soccer League kicked off last weekend, and travel squads from Greencastle United Soccer Club and Union Soccer Club in Chambersburg found themselves in the middle of the action.

The GUSC Strykers, a U11 boys team, opened their season with a victory last weekend, as did four boys teams from the USC: The U10 Tornadoes, U10 Shredder, U13 Lightning, and U15 Knights.

As the season rolls along, LocalNews1 plans on tracking the progress of area teams in the CPYSL, as well as four other local clubs — Waynesboro Youth Soccer Association, Hagerstown AYSO, Hagerstown Soccer Club and Smithsburg Youth Athletics — when the United Recreational Soccer League opens its season later this month.

Below is a league-by-league, club-by-club look at how area teams performed over the opening weekend of travel soccer season:
