Q: What is included in my $75 registration fee?
A: Your registration fee includes your child’s AYSO National membership fee, insurance, 1 child size t-shirt, small picture package, 6 weeks of instruction and we hope a ton a fun!
Q: Is there other equipment my child will need?
A: Shin guards are required for all AYSO activities. Soccer cleats are not required, however they are recommended, athletic shoes may be worn. No metal cleats or baseball cleats may be worn! Shorts that allow your child to move around and play comfortably and do not restrict their movement should be worn.
Q: Does my child need to bring a soccer ball with them?
A: Soccer balls will be provided for use at the fields, there is no need to bring a soccer ball with you. It may be helpful to purchase a size 3 soccer ball for your child to practice with at home. If your son/daughter must bring their ball to the field be sure to write a name and phone number in permanent ink on the ball! We have many soccer balls go missing and several turned in without any way to return it to the owner.
Q: Will my child play an actual soccer match or games?
A: This is an introductory pre-soccer program, while you and your child may be playing games to work on developing their physical motor skills there will not be actual soccer matches taking place for this age group.
Q: When is picture day and what is included in my picture package?
A: Picture day will be Sunday, September 9, 2018 at Ventura College West Fields. The picture package included with your child’s registration contains 1 Memory Mate, which will include your individual player and group photo, 4 wallets and a photo button of your player. Additional picture packages will be available to purchase. Each child will need a completed picture order form to have their photo taken, even if you are not purchasing additional photos.
