2010 Fall Soccer Information - UPDATE

Registration is now closed for 2010 fall soccer.  Details of the team assignments will be posted shortly.  Practices and games will be Wednesday evenings and Friday evenings, commencing Sept. 8-10, 16-17, 22-24, 29-Oct 1, 6-8, 13-15.  Practice will be Thursday, 16 September because of the Home and School meeting on the 15th.

Cost:
The cost of early bird registration will be $40.00, and each child will get a Youth Group Sports tee shirt and St Coleman Blue soccer socks.   All early bird registration and payment will be online.  Early bird registration will close out on Thursday 26 August.  Late registrations will be available on a space available basis only, and at a cost of $50.00 per child.  Please register early to ensure your child's place (and also to save $10!).

Coaches:

We are very much in need of parents to coach. The league can only go forward if we have the volunteers to coach. We are planning on four teams for each group (1st and 2nd grades, 3rd and 4th grades, 5th and 6th grades, and 7th and 8th grades, depending on participation), which means we need firm commitments to coach from 16 parents!!

Brilliance in soccer technique and strategy are not required – the children pretty much figure that out by themselves, and we have a few experts available to give you guidance! What we really need are 16 committed parents who would like to spend a little time with their children.

In addition to coaches, we need at least 16 other volunteers to assist the coaches and a few other volunteers to help out with set up and break down each night. Please keep this in mind as you plan your fall activities and then come out and support your parish and your children.

Food:
We are hoping that at least two of our game days will coincide with St. Coleman Spaghetti Nights.  For the remainder, we are hoping to have the concession stand available again on Friday nights, with freshly grilled hot dogs, hamburgers, soda, water and snacks.

Uniforms:
Shirts and socks will be provided. Shorts will be the St. Coleman PE shorts. For safety’s sake, shin guards and cleats are required to play, but they will have to be provided by parents.

Parents:
Even if you cannot volunteer, we need you to be present. For the safety of all our children, the children will be checked in as they arrive and a parent must be present with each child.

Families:
Families are encouraged to participate and cheer! Bring all the siblings, but please keep all skateboards at home. The basketball courts will be closed during soccer practice and games.
