Q: What time will games be played?
A: Games will be played during a 9am (minis only), 10am , 11am and 12pm time slot. Participants will be able to register for their preferred time slot on a "first come, first served basis". If you register for the 9am time slot then you will play at that time for the entire season.
Q: Will I be able to make teammate requests?
A: No, the Winter session will not have formal teams. Players will be arranged into teams and play in either 3v3 or 5v5 formats.
Q: What does the Parent-on-Duty do?
A: You assist the trainers who run the drills and games to organize the kids and relay information to parents at the gym. You do not need to know the game of soccer well. You need to be available for the whole session you are assigned to be reay to divide kids into groups and move them in the right direction. The more volunteers we have, the less often you will be called upon to do this.
VOLUNTEERS ARE NEEDED! The success of our program depends on the efforts of caring, enthusiastic and supportive parents to assist in a variety of ways, both big and small, including as team coaches, team managers, parent-on-duty, program administrators and program fundraisers. There is a place on the website to sign up as a volunteer. Please make every effort to pitch in and help. The program is only as strong as our group of volunteers.
