Hi Optimist families and friends,
We want to take a moment to remind those currently playing in our programs about coverages of our insurance.
Under the new Field Use Agreement with the city our insurance policies have been updated.
Any coach practicing on the fields listed below would be covered in the case of an injury for any organized team practice. If you practice at any other field, your team will not be covered in the case of an injury. Let's stick to the fields listed below. We are hearing about teams practicing in several locations in and around and outside of Cooper City, so we want to reminder everyone which of our fields are part of our insurance policy.
Thanks for making a difference and enjoy teaching our kids!
