When is registration? How can I register my child?
Spring 2013 Regular registration runs from December 1, 2012 until March 4, 2013 and is held on-line.
How and when will teams be formed?
Teams are formed before the Coaches' Meeting.
I would like my child to be on the same team as their friend so that we can carpool.
Unfortunately, due to the size of the club, the potential number of special requests
I really liked my child’s coach from last season and would like to have them again.
Unfortunately, due to the size of the club, the potential number of special requests
Due to family conflicts, I would like my child to be placed on a team where there are no practices on Tuesday or Friday.
SYSA is aware that nearly every child in the league participates in other school and athletic activities and that parents are chauffeuring several kids to various locations. Unfortunately, it would be impossible
When will we hear from our coach? The neighbor’s kids have heard from theirs.
The coaches will first learn of their rostered players during the coaches meeting and will generally contact each family within a week
When does the practices and games start?
Fields are generally open to start practices two weeks before the first match. See the website calendar for specific dates.
My child was born in August, and according to the league structure, will end up playing with children of a different grade level. Why doesn’t SYSA have the same birthday cut off as the school system?
SYSA has adopted the age cut-offs that are consistent with the VA Youth Soccer Association and national soccer leagues. These are the age cut-offs that are required for all local tournaments as well as the formation of teams in the travel leagues.
UPDATE FALL 2011!
There is now the possibility to play with grade. Those players with an August or September birthday can play with their grade in the recreational league. If the player decides to go to the travel league then the player must try out with their grade.
My daughter’s dance class and my son’s karate class run from $60 to $100 per month. SYSA’s website lists the cost for soccer as only $120/season. Now I am pretty good at math - and that works out to about $40.00/month. The listed cost MUST be a typo!
Technically speaking, all FAQ’s should be phrased as a question. But since your strong suit is math and not English, I will answer your question. It is not a typo, your math is correct. :)
