Can my son/daughter request to play with a friend?
Yes, you may make such request. However, a request is just that. We will do everything possible to meet the request, but they are not guaranteed.
How do I volunteer to coach?
The best way is to come to our monthly meetings but you can also get in contact with our club president. We are always looking for people willing to help in any way possible.

No. The most important part of coaching youth soccer is enthusiasm! If you are willing to dedicate some of your free time, we will help you any way we can.
Is there any other ways I can help the club?
YES! We are a volunteer organization so without volunteers, the club wouldn't be able to survive. We could always use help with field lining, field layout, team snack coordination, and we could always use more help with our fundraisers. Contact a board member to volunteer!
