Greenbush Recreational Youth Soccer is open to participants ages 4 to 12 (please see age matrix for eligibility). It is a non-competitive, fun soccer experience for local youth. The program offers organized, skilled play without the stress of making it to the championship game. Spring season will run from April 21st through June 16th. Games may be scheduled
on any day of the week with the majority of the games being played on Saturdays.
Please note that many changes have been made to the age matrix. We are now offering a 4-year-old program. This program will consist of a 25-minute skills session and then a 25-minute game. Outside of the 4-6 year-olds, your requests for teammates and coaches likely WILL NOT be granted.
We will no longer be allowing for automatic playing up. We ask that every player remain in their division to provide fair play for every member of the club. Any special requests must be emailed separately to the registrar and will be honored at the discretion of the club.
During the registration process, there is a question asking if you would like to play in a more competitive version of your division. If there is enough interest we will form competitive and non-competitive teams.
For the 13+ division, we will wait and see if there is an interest. I encourage you to register your child without paying if you are interested. We will look at the numbers and decide as soon as possible if we can field a program for this age group.
All teams are coached by volunteers and parents are encouraged to coach. Head coaches are currently offered the opportunity for ONE child to play at no cost. There will be a mandatory information session before the season begins. If you are coaching, ONE child may play for free and other siblings at the reduced rate. Please do not submit full payment if you are coaching (choose the pay by check option and your account will be adjusted when teams are set and you have attended the meeting). There will be a team commitment requirement for concessions, which each team has the opportunity to buy out of.
The fees for this season are $100 for first child and $65 for each additional child. There is a $2 processing fee for each family, please register all family members at the same time so as not to incur more than one processing fee. There will be a $10 fee added for payment not received before March 25.
Players are provided with a team shirt and are required to have shin guards and appropriate footwear depending on age level. Players in the 4-year-old division must wear sneakers. All others can wear rubber molded (no metal) soccer cleats. Please be sure you are purchasing soccer cleats and not football cleats, it is often difficult to tell the difference.
Deadline for registration is March 10, 2012.
NO LATE REGISTRATIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED
