FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

When will registration materials by mailed for Fall soccer?
Registration materials for the Fall 2009 season will be mailed by the end of March. In addition, we will have all the necessary information for registration on our site by that time. New this year - we will have online registration for all registrants.
I submitted my child's registration - now what?
The coaches and team organization meeting will be scheduled for late July (exact date TBD). Coaches will contact all players on their team the week following that meeting (in any event, no later than August 1st).
When does the season start & end?
The first games generally fall on the first Saturday in September. The final games of the season are scheduled for the Saturday before Thanksgiving.
How many practices do we have & when are they?
Most coaches have two practices per week (usually on Monday and Wednesday or Tuesday and Thursday). They are usually scheduled at 3:30 p.m. or 5:00 p.m. Most coaches practice for 1.5 hours each session. However, many U6 and U8 coaches have one practice per week / with each practice session lasting 1 hour. Every coach is different.
How is my child assigned to a team?
Every effort is made to assign your child to a team that practices close to your home. Under Club Bylaws, children can request to be on a friend's team (but not a specific coach). The Club makes every effort to honor such requests, but there are no guarantees that such requests will be granted. The Club manages over eighty (80) teams and there are a variety of factors that come into play in forming teams such as commuting issues, team balance, availability of coaches, date player's registration was submitted, and number of players registered - to name just a few. The Club does its best, but we ask that you understand that no one is guaranteed to be assigned to a particular team. With over 1,200 kids, our Club volunteers cannot accomodate every request.
We have changed our mind and would like a refund - how do I get a refund?
You may request a refund by completing and submitting a request for refund form prior to July 1st (Click Here)
What if there are not enough coaches?
Our Club is run by volunteers. Thus, all of our coaches are volunteers. The Club does its best to find enough qualified coaches to provide the opportunity to play for all those children interested in playing. However, if we cannot find enough coaches through parent volunteers, there is the possibility that some children will not have the opportunity to play.
We encourage all parents to consider joining our team and helping to provide this wonderful opportunity to the children of our community. Remember, together we make this Club successful.
