FW: Bradford Township Sting Soccer


Bradford Township Sting Soccer: Spring 2021

http://www.bradfordstingsoccer.com/

Welcome to the Spring 2021 season Sting families!  I have been getting a lot of inquiries about when we will be starting so I will be covering that and a lot more. I will be adding information to the website and Facebook page throughout the season, so please check those often as well.


  • Covid guidelines from SAY Soccer, DOH and CDC are rapidly changing.  We will continually review these guidelines and adjust our response to the season accordingly.  We are working with our participating associations to be consistent with our procedures. At this time we only ask that you please follow any PA DOH or CDC recommendations and if you or your family members are sick, please stay home.

  • We anticipate only having (1) fundraiser this season.  We will be doing a Marianna's fundraiser (dates to come).  We are proud to offer an opportunity for families to participate in recreational soccer at an extremely low cost.  In order for us to continue to do so we need help with fundraising to pay for supplies, referees, parties and awards/gifts for the kids.  If you do not wish to fundraise, you can also contribute with donations to the association.

  • I will be closing registration Tuesday, April 6, 2021.  If you know anyone that still wishes to register, please pass this information on to them.

  • After closing registration, I will provide the coaches with their rosters and parent contact information.  We typically communicate changes to practice / games via group texts. Please contact your coaches if you have any questions. We will attempt to update the website and Facebook page when we have advanced notice of cancelations but often it is at the last minute because of lightning.  

  • The address for our facility is 636 Pinetop Road, Bigler PA 16825.  Some navigation systems attempt to take people through a gated road.  I have included written directions to our field for anyone not familiar with our location and have included them below.

  • We work with Chamberlain Designs for jerseys and Sting apparel.  You will place orders and payments directly to Chamberlain Designs.  I will be adding a flyer to the website and Facebook with prices and options soon.  For any jersey purchases, we do need to assign you a number for the back of the jersey.  Please contact Lara 814.762.7620 for your number.  U6 players do not need to have jerseys for games but should have some article of Sting apparel for group and / or individual pictures.  Many purchase jerseys at that age level and are able to wear them for several seasons.  That is your choice.

  • Please bring shin guards, soccer cleats and a drink to practices and games.  We have soccer balls for kids to use.  If you wish to bring your own please make sure it is age group / size appropriate.  U6 and U8: Size 3 and U10: Size 4

  • If you have any questions you can email me (Brad) at bradfordsting@gmail.com or text/call at 814.762.7620.
