NEW PLAY WITH GRADE
No player will be permitted to play in an age group younger than their age no matter what their grade. A player born in August/September who is also in a higher grade than their date of birth would place them may request to play up to stay with their school grade group.
But if the player decides to try out for SYSA Travel Soccer he/she must play with the correct age group, not grade. Unless the team has space for an underage player.

IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU READ ALL OF THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION:
If you register during early or regular registration and for whatever reason(s) need to request a refund a $10.00 processing fee will be deducted from your overall refund. If you register during late registration and for whatever reason(s) need to request a refund a $25 fee will be deducted from your overall refund. If we cannot place your waitlisted child we will assess the $25 late fee as well. All requests for refunds must be made in writing. These requests can be sent via email to sysa_info@yahoo.com.
No refunds will be issued after the Coaches' Meeting on March 14, 2011, unless we are unable to place your child on a team. Refunds will not be granted in the event that practice and/or game schedules do not meet family schedule. SYSA is a volunteer organization and ability to grant individual requests cannot be accommodated.
Registration fees do not include the SYSA uniform or other necessary equipment. Capability to purchase uniforms online only apply to U11 and above age players. Uniforms are an additional cost and vary depending on what program applies to your player.
No mail-in forms will be accepted for registration. All registration will be done online. If you have trouble accessing the online system you can try any public library to use their computers for registration.
Mail-in checks must be received within 5 calendar days from date of registration to guarantee placement on a team provided the player is registered during the regular registration time frame. Any checks returned for NSF will be assessed a $50.00 fee by the collection company.
No jewelry, including pierced earrings, is permitted to be worn during games. All jewelry must be removed. This is a FIFA rule with which SYSA must abide. This applies to newly pierced ears as well. Earrings CANNOT be taped over but must be removed while a player is on the field during games. There are NO EXCEPTIONS.
Coaches meeting will be held on March 14, 2012 (location/time TBD). Do not expect to be contacted by your child's coach until after that date.
Coaching clinics and coaching courses will be held throughout March. Updates will be posted on the SYSA website and communicated through mass emails. Practices will begin the week of March 26, 2012.
