* Note: Players must be 8 years old
before they are allowed to participate in county games. No
exceptions to this rule will be entertained. However, players who
turn 8 during the fall season are allowed to practice with their
teammates up until they turn 8 and then play in games once they actually
are 8 years old.
AAYSA teams will be divided by skill level to accommodate
all teams participating. Division I is highly competitive,
composed of experienced and skilled players. Teams are usually
selected by tryout or skill comparisons by the sponsoring Community
organization (i.e., JPYO). Division 2 is not as competitive as
Division I, yet participants are skilled and experienced. Division
3 is designed for recreational players and should be less competitive in
nature.
Uniforms -
Clinic teams will receive a team t-shirt and
socks (no
additional cost), County team players will purchase a new uniform (if
needed) this season; $35 for complete uniform, (shirt, shorts and socks) or
for separate purchases, shirt - $20, shorts - $20, and socks - $5.
Trophies -
clinic teams will receive participation trophies, County teams will receive
participation medals.
Fundraising -
JPYO may not conduct the traditional
fund-raising activities (candy/wrapping paper sales, etc.) this soccer
season. We are asking everyone to assist in finding local sponsors for
our clinic teams. Contact
Dave Cope for more information. This
season the fundraiser will be the Kick-A-Thon. More information will
be forthcoming.
Concession Stand -
All teams will be assigned volunteer time to
assist with the Concession Stand. Theresa Winkelmeyer will contact
Coaches/Team Parents with more information.
JPYO Soccer Banquet -
Scheduled Mid-November, day TBD.
Volunteers -
We need volunteers to assist in the following
areas: lining the fields, flag deployment and retrieval, coaches and
assistant coaches, concessions, and team parents. A few
minutes of your valuable time will go a long way to ensure a successful
soccer season.
