Field Guidelines

  • No pets are allowed at the fields.  Even if they are on a leash or in a carrier, you will be asked to remove them from the fields.
  • Smoking and alcohol are not allowed at the fields.
  • Please do not allow children to climb on the goals.  This includes hanging from the bars, climbing up the nets, etc.  We need to respect the fields and equipment.  If a board member or coach sees someone playing on goals, they will be told to stop.
  • Equipment (goals and benches) must not be moved.  Goals are suppose to be staked down for player safety and are put in place where they need to be.  Benches need to stay on the fields they are on.  Please do not move a bench so you have some place to sit during practice or game.
  • During games, coaches and players ONLY should be on the player's sideline.  All parents and visitors must be on the parent sideline.  Please do not sit on the ends of the fields (where goals are).  You will most likely be asked to move if you are.  Spectators also need to be at least 3 feet away from the field to allow players and refs room to move.
  • We expect players, coaches, parents, and visitors to demonstrate good sportsmanship.  This includes only positive statements on the sidelines during the games, not putting players down or making fun of them, allowing the refs to do their job, among other things.  If someone is causing a disruption, please come to the concession stand and let the board member there know.  We do have the right to ask someone to leave the fields.
  • Lastly, please remember that we are here for the kids to learn and have fun.  All of the coaches and board members are volunteers, and are generous with their time and talents to make this a great club.  We couldn't survive without volunteers.


Weather Guidelines

  • Practices:  Whether or not your team has practice is decided by your coach.  That is not a board decision. 
  • For U6 and U8 games, a board member will make the final decision on whether or not games will take place.  If it can be determined early enough that thunderstorms will interfere with games, we will post on our website (www.bdsc.org) that games are canceled and fields are closed.  Check the field status on the lower right to see if fields are open.  If games are not canceled an hour before games, it will be a game time decision made at the fields.  We have a flag system that we use to let parents know the status of games. If there is a green flag on the corner of the concession stand awning, then games are on.  If there is a red flag, games are cancelled.  A yellow flag will mean that we are waiting a little bit to see what happens. We recommend that you stay in vehicles in the parking lot until the flag is changed.  We follow the 30 minute rule--no activity on the fields until 30 minutes after the last lightning strike/thunder. 
  • Footskills on Mondays will also be canceled by a board member.
  • Rec+ games (U10, U12, U14 and U19) game cancellations will be determined by the home field.
