Fall 2020 Registration Extended

General Announcements

•  We had a committee meeting last night (August 10, 2020).  The committee approved having a Fall 2020 season and follow all required guidelines while doing so.  If there is an official order that we cannot play then we will re-evaluate at that time. If we would not be able to have a full season a partial or full refund will be given depending on the situation.
•  On a positive note we are very proud and excited about all of the facility improvements that continue to take place.  We have purchased new high quality goals, made road improvements, installed a new fence and made significant parking lot improvements! We have also oredred a new sign that should be ready soon! A special thank you to The Walker Foundation for providing us with a generous grant and a special thank you to Bash Contracting and their crew for donating their time and materials.

We are strictly enforcing the following requirements.  Please share with players, parents and any spectators. 

• If a player, family member or anyone you have been in contact with recently, is displaying any signs of illness please stay home.
• Alternate methods for group and person to person celebrations as well as post game handshakes will be developed, encouraged and practiced.  It would be great if the kids could come up with something fun.
•  We encourage each player to have an age appropriate ball (U10- Size 4, U8 and U6 - Size 3) If you need financial help or recommendations on a purchase please let us know.  We can also give out loaner balls for the season.
•  Encourage the kids to not congregate in the shed.  The kids will not be permitted in the shed for the entire 2020 season.
•  We are encouraging each player to bring their own clearly identifiable drinks to practice and games.  
  
•  We will provide hand sanitizer in the port a pot and disposable wipes to clean touched surfaces.  We will sanitize the door handles often. 
•  We will also provide hand sanitizer to kids at breaks in play.
•  We strongly encourage kids to social distance when not in competitive play while participating in practice or games.  
  
•  Please don't assume that every individual shares your viewpoints.  We don't know everyone's situation as to whether they are high risk or care for a family member that is high risk.  If you are not 100% sure of an individuals viewpoint please assume that they want their 6' distance respected.  This includes players, coaches, referees, and spectators.
•  Multiple game balls will be used for each game.  The ball will be sanitized and swapped out at all stoppages of play.
  
• Lets work together to make sure that our kids have this opportunity this season as well as in the future by not only following the guidelines but encouraging them as well.
