The content below is for our 2023 Spring Soccer Season.
WE WILL BE UPDATING THE BELOW OVER THE NEXT WEEKS TO KEEP YOU INFORMED, IN ADDITION TO SENDING EMAILS.
Here are the main Spring Soccer program features:
-- Everyone who registers and has a coach will play - we will be running Spring Soccer as a mixture of our normal Fall program (Core) and our Spring Select program.
-- We are run entirely by volunteers, and we will be asking for parents to be heroes to their kids, their teammates, and the community. We will need some team staff, some referees, a few field painters, and gameday setup and tear down helpers.
-- The total fee has been set to $120, and it will be due when your player is registered (for divisions with open spots) or when your player taken off waitlist - it must be paid before a player can be rostered to a team and can play or practice on an AYSO field.
-- Please register as soon as you can - it's much easier for us to communicate to you after you register for the Spring Soccer program (see below).
-- Many players will initially be placed on waitlist until we have enough kids to field a team and/or a division in your player's age group. We just need numbers!
Reminder - the below info may change throughout the season.
General Guidelines - 1/24/23 -
Please see below for the Spring 2023 Refund Policy.
Current guidelines for practices (all divisions):
- Keep sick players OR players exposed to sick adults home, and notify coach if the player can't attend.
- Players need to bring shin guards, a face mask and hand sanitizer (just in case), at least one washcloth or towel, their own water/snack, and their own ball to practice.
- The bathrooms will be available for use, but players should bring their washcloth/towel with them to dry off their hands after washing.
- Schedules for practices will be worked out with coaches and their Division Coordinators and the Coach Admin.
- Midweek practices start as early as 4:30pm, last 1-2 hours, and all practices typically end at sundown (some upper divisions may use portable lights).
- Practices may start as soon as a team has an official roster for Spring Soccer (all players rostered, all players paid, all adult volunteers certified)
Division Specific Rules:
-- 8U and 6U games will all be played at Imperial. 8U teams should practice at least once during the week. 6U teams typically perform all their activities once a week (generally on Saturdays, throughout the morning), but 6U coaches are allowed to schedule midweek and/or Sunday practices (though it can be difficult to wrangle 6U players with just a coach - much easier with a properly certified assistant coach and/or team manager). Division Coordinators will have more information.
----We will be asking for parents to step up as coaches for 6U and 8U (and likely for the upper divisions).
-- 6U will have 4-5 players per team, and games will be 4 on 4, no goalies.
-- 8U will have 5-6 players per team, and games will be 4 on 4, no goalies.
-- Super 8 and up should practice 1-2 times a week, and some games will be away games (generally within about 30min driving).
-- Super 8 (new travel division) will be limited to players entering 10U in Fall 2023 (all players with the same birth year) and will mimic the player requirements for 10U.
-- 10U will have 8-10 players per team, and games will be 7 on 7, with goalies.
-- 12U will have 10-12 players per team, and games will be 9 on 9, with goalies.
-- 14U, 16U, and 19U will have 12-15 players per team (possibly more), and games will be 11 on 11, with goalies.
Thank you everyone, can't wait to see you out on the fields!
