~ Every player is expected to attend each and every practice and game unless an illness, injury or personal commitment prevents you from participating. (Notify a coach in advance)
~ Horseplay, foul language and teammate harassment will NOT be tolerated at any time. Our goal is to provide a challenging yet positive experience for all players and coaches involved.
~ Approach every practice and game with a positive attitude and be attentive during all drills.

We take the responsibility of keeping the players safe seriously. We require that all players LISTEN to the coaches and do as asked. We appreciate parent’s cooperation and support in this effort. We are trying to teach the sport of soccer, but more important, the responsibilities and fun of team play. This includes respect for our teammates, opponents, coaches, officials, and most important, ourselves. We want the players to come away from this experience having learned that a team working together will accomplish much more than a group of individuals. Please feel free to discuss any concerns with any coach early, rather than waiting.
