I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for registering for our 23rd fall soccer season at AYSO Region 644. I am proud to now be a part of fourteen of these seasons, eleven of which as regional commissioner. In my opinion, this is the best youth sports organizations around, one based on six basic philosophies that lie at the core of what youth sports are all about. Everyone Plays, Open Registration, Positive Coaching, Balanced Teams and Good Sportsmanship and Player Development is what we are all about. We strive for these principles and we hope that you will as well.
The registration fee for the 2012 Spring Soccer Season will be $140.00. For those interested in sponsoring their child’s team, we will once again be offering our team sponsorship program where you may have your company’s logo on the shirtsleeves of your child’s team. If you are interested please check the appropriate box during the online registration process.
Registration Requirements: All new players will have to present a copy of their birth certificate to their coach on the first Practice.
Ages: Players must be 4-18 years old as of July 31, 2011 (We do accept registrations of players who will turn 4 by Feb. 28, 2012). Players will not be allowed to move up an age group unless there are spots available in that particular age group.
Evaluations: All players who did not participate in our fall 2011 or spring 2011 seasons must be evaluated. Evaluation dates will be emailed to you.
Games: Played every Saturday at the Weston Regional Park beginning in March 2012. Because AYSO is a balanced league, we do not take team/friend request. We will not accommodate any requests to be placed on specific teams or with specific players. A complete uniform will be supplied.
Practices: Practices start in March. Divisions U7 on up will practice twice weekly. The U5 and U6 divisions will be assigned only one practice per week. All practices will be at the Weston Regional Park with days and times determined by the coaches. These practices can be any day of the week. We cannot guarantee practice days and times. With over 1,800 children playing in the spring program, trying to coordinate everyone’s schedule in addition to trying to balance teams is impossible. If you have multiple children playing in our program we will try to accommodate to place them on the same practice nights but that may not be possible based on the volunteer coaches schedule. Remember, if you volunteer to head coach YOU get to pick your practice nights and times. We will only pair up the coach and assistant coaches. NO other requests will be honored. We will NOT switch players to different teams based upon practice schedules. Please note that we will not be able to place children on the same team for "car pool" reasons. Only siblings residing in the same household and of the same age group and gender will be guaranteed to be on the same team. One head coach and one assistant coach will also have their children paired together.
Equipment: You will need to supply shin guards, cleats, a soccer ball and water bottle. Ball size 3 for U8 division and lower, size 4 for U10 and U12, size 5 for U-14, U-16 and U 19.
Refunds: If your child cannot participate in our program after you have registered but prior to Feb 28, 2012 you may request a refund (as outlined below) minus a $50 processing fee. After Feb 28, 2012 there will be absolutely NO REFUNDS FOR ANY REASON. If registering after Feb 28, 2012 there will be no refunds as well.
All refunds requests must be made in writing and postmarked by Feb 28, 2012 and mailed to:
AYSO Region 644
1112 Weston Road #225
Weston, Florida 33326
Note: Depending on the registration numbers, the U-16 and U-19 Divisions players may be combined together.
