Other Important Information

Don’t let your child/ren (or any child) climb or hang on the nets! If you see someone doing this, please tell them to STOP. This is a serious safety issue and can damage the nets, adding to our costs/fees.

Please don’t leave your young child(ren) without letting the coach or helper know where you are on the field. Your children need you there in case of injury or bathroom breaks and to see them progress.
Pets are not allowed on the soccer field or in the clubhouse. We love pets, but not all children are accustomed to being around animals. For the safety of everyone, including your pet, please leave them at home or on a tight leash. Please remember to clean up after your dog.
While our facility is not a designated “nut free space”, there are children who do have peanut allergies. Please be conscious and considerate of these allergies when at the soccer facility.
Please park in designated parking areas. There is lots of parking all around the complex. Please leave Route 13 and the driveway clear for emergencies. Handicapped parking spaces are near the clubhouse. Be respectful and do not use them if you do not have a motor vehicle handicapped tag.
The speed limit is no more than 20km/hr anywhere on club grounds. Safety of children is paramount.
Traffic is one-way only after you enter the complex.
We will be calling for extra help from parents for wrap-up sessions BBQ and drinks.
You will get information about soccer photos after the season gets going.

Saying thank you to our sponsors goes a long way to building community spirit and goodwill. Without our sponsors, our club would not be as big or run as well as it does. Please, if you have the opportunity, say thank you to the many generous sponsors you will see recognized on jerseys, equipment, notices at the clubhouse and at tournaments.
