How to Find Your Child's Team Page and Roster.
There are a few ways to access the rosters and schedules. You must be logged in to view them. Here are the steps, preferred in this order:
1. From Your Account:
- Once logged in, you will see a blue-themed portion of our site.
- Click on the team name next to your child's name.
2. From the Home Page:
- Log in as above, then click "Home" from the left-hand column on the blue-themed page.
- This will take you to our main website with an orange theme.
- Look for the "TEAM CENTRAL" tab at the top.
3. From the Club Team App:
- Use the app to find your child's team information.
Practices Start This Weekend:
We have over 70 three and four-year-olds participating. This can feel like "herding cats," so you are welcome to help and join your player. To reduce stress, know your child's team number and field location beforehand. Those who seem most stressed are often those trying to figure out their team number or coach upon arriving at the field.
Practice Plans:
We have posted the schedule online and have also shared each week's plans.
Field Maps:
Ensure you know where to go by checking the field maps.
Jerseys:
We still have a few jerseys on hand and have ordered more. If we run short on jerseys or sizes, we will have more by the second weekend.
Assistance:
I may not be there, but there will be at least a couple of people available to lend a hand. They will be wearing the new black in-house jerseys.
In Closing:
I'm entering the phase of my life where I'm now the "old parent." My oldest is 20, while my youngest is 10. From experience, I've seen that the younger the child, the more they take cues from you, their trusted adult. If you're stressed, they're stressed. If you're relaxed and having fun, they are relaxed and having fun. When in doubt, default to having fun. Soccer can be an amazing experience for the kids, but they are young and still learning. They look to us to understand what they are experiencing. So, to the adults, including myself, let's remember: Be respectful, responsible, safe, and kind!
