Welcome 03B Gold

Hello! Thank you all for accepting a spot onto the UFA 03B Gold Team for the 2017-2018 soccer year.  It is always nice to have tryouts behind us and now we can get to the good stuff.  This email is just to make sure everyone is on the same page before summer kicks into high gear. 

Signing Day:  June 6th is signing day for the U9-U13 age groups and June 13th is signing day for U14-U19.  Please look for an email from UFA ([email protected]), on signing day, that will give you instructions on how to get completely registered for the 2017-2018 soccer year and make payments. 
You will have 3 days to officially accept a position on the team, with payment, in the Blue Sombrero registration system.  Please be sure you are somewhere with internet access on signing day. 

Uniforms:  This is the 2nd year of a 2-year uniform cycle.  All new players will need to complete a uniform order.  Returning players may order uniform items if needed.

Team Camp:  Team Camp is the week of July 24th and will kick off our season.  ·         There is a mandatory camp for all players July 24th throughJuly 28th.  Times for each age group will be posted on the website early July.   There will also be a parent/player team meeting that week.  At that time, we will go over the fall timeline, player expectations, parent expectations, and address any other questions and/or concerns.  Day and time to be set at later date. Practices:  Practice times and locations will be confirmed in early July.  We will train 2 times a week, probably at Fowler Park.   

Skills for Soccer. Skills for Life.  In the world of select soccer, there has to be a balance between winning and development. ·         
It is my goal to increase every player's development over the course of the year.·         It is important that players learn to be passionate about the game and develop a deep love for the sport.  Players are expected to bring their passion and commitment to training and games while working hard to improve in all areas of the game: technically, tactically, physically and mentally·  All of this and our goals for the season will be addressed at our team meeting.  

Blue Sombrero (BS) Team Page:  Beginning on signing day, we will have access to our own team page in the Blue Sombrero system.  The team page will allow us to communicate from any device, share pictures/videos, house a team calendar and much more.  Team Manager:  Please join me in thanking Christy Maguire for volunteering to be our team’s manager. ·  She will assist in disseminating communications from the club and myself to you, the parents. Please be sure to answer any questions and provide the necessary documentation that Christy requests in a timely manner – email [email protected]·  Also, if anyone is able to step up and assist Christy in these duties, this would be greatly appreciated. 

Communication: “UFA will only communicate player information to the person(s) listed as primary and/or secondary account holder.”  UFA is defined as: the club, you, the team manager and/or any person relaying information that is pertinent to a minor player.  That means any person not listed on your account will either need to be added to the account or you will need to notify the TM to add them to our team’s distribution list.  If you need to add an additional individual to the team’s contact list, it is the duty of the primary account holder to notify the coach and team manager; and/or make the necessary changes to the account holder’s UFA (Blue Sombrero) account. 

Please let Christy and myself know if you would like to include any extended family members to the team’s distribution list.  In addition, you will need to add them to your BS account as a secondary account holder or you may use the primary’s additional email space.  (You may add more than 1 secondary account holder.  Note all secondary account holders will be invited to attach themselves to the account, meaning they will have access to see payment information and account details.) 

That should be it for now.  Be expecting Christy to email further information soon. If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know.  My preferred contact method is by email [email protected].  You can also reach me at 678/551-5173. 

Looking forward to a great year with the players! Coach Kevin FloreaUFA Forsyth 03B [email protected]/551-5173
