Thank you for attending the team meeting! Briefly we went over the
AYSO Philosophy paraphrased and interpreted
- Everyone Plays - each healthy participating player plays 1/2 game minimum. Further play is on merit, not necessarily raw talent alone.
- Balanced Teams - the league has split up talent among all teams. Coaches are expected to balance teams as necessary to keep games competitive.
- Positive Coaching - AYSO Fall is about fun and orientation into the game of soccer. Coaching supports this goal, specifically positive help and not negative criticism..
- Open Registration - Coaches do not pick players, all kids or various talent are welcome.
- Good Sportsmanship - Its about love and respect of ourselves, our fellow players, coaches, opponents and parents/spectators. Its about respect of the game. When kids, coaches and parents come out to have a fun time we will have great soccer!

Here is the current schedule for our AYSO games copied from the webyouthsoccer.com web site with the addition of Sept 24. We have an odd number of teams in U11 - boys teams, so we are looking at other possibilities for creating a game. So far as I understand it we could be playing up to U12 girls ... we shall see!

Registration note: Coaches must have this document before
your

parent/guardian. It
contains the emergency medical authorization. We need multiple
copies
with your signature for the AYSO organization and because we have
multiple
coaches. You can print a copy of this document from
http://db.webyouthsoccer.com/,

Equipment notes: Players should always have
shin-guards,
running clothes and a water bottle. Soccer cleats will be
necessary
when
as the grass becomes damp. Proper soccer cleats are safe, smooth
and
absent of the front center cleat that is sometimes present with
baseball
shoes. I've heard calls for an organized shoe exchange. If
anyone
is involved with this and knows more details please 'reply-all' to this
list.
