SPRING SOCCER 2008 FIRST – SECOND GRADERS

Welcome to SpringSoccer 2008! We are scheduled to start our league on Saturday, April 19and games will be played at the Sports Complex east of the High School on Thursday’s & Saturday’s. As we head into the season here are some guidelines to follow:

1)Do not park on the grass by the Soccer Fields. All vehicles must stay in the designated parking lot.

2)Grades 1-2 will be playing on soccer fields 1 and 2 and will use these fields for the whole season. When you face north fields 1 & 2 are on the far left (west) side.

3)We will meet on Thursday’s and Saturday’s (weather permitting). On Thursday’s we will start with 15 minutes of drills and then hold a shortened 45 min. game. Saturday’s are designated game days for the league. Make sure to follow your schedule closely to see what time you play and what field you play on.

4)This season there are 6 teams in the first and second grades. During league games there will be 8 players on the field from each team and though we want to keep the league somewhat competitive, no league standings will be kept and players will rotate positions regularly.

5)On Saturday, April 19,all soccer league members will meet from 10:30-11:30to meet their coaches, fellow teammates, receive team t-shirts, and have a team photo taken. When you get to the soccer fields, look for your coach on field #1 wearing your team colored t-shirt. You can find out who your coach is and your team color by looking at the reverse side of this sheet, it is displayed at the top of your team list. It is required that you wear your team colored shirt every time you attend soccer and wear tennis shoes or cleats (not metal). It also recommended, not required, to wear shin guards.

6)Practices and games will start on time, refs are instructed to be there 10 minutes early so make sure that you are on time for your games and practices, we will not wait for you to start.

7)In case of bad weather we will try to call school on Thursday’s and let the kids know before they are dismissed if soccer is cancelled. We will also send out e-mail updates to those of you who provided us their e-mail addresses. If you would still like to be added to the list, e-mail us at . On both Thursday’s and Saturday’s cancellations will also be announced on the radio (1090 AM or 93.9 FM). The first rain out will be made up this year and any rain outs after the first will be cancelled.

8)Each team will have their own team pizza party at Pizza Ranch this year. Look at your schedule to see when your team is having their party and what day you get FREE PIZZA! After your game or practice go straight to the Pizza Ranchparty room and have a great time! Parents: The buffet will be set up if you are interested in joining your sons or daughters team party.
