Dear Soccer Families,
On behalf of the entire Southern Soccer Academy organization, we'd like to welcome you to our Spring 2017 Recreational Soccer Season! Whether you are a long-time member, or have signed up for the first time, we're very happy to have you as part of our program and thank you for registering with us!
With the registration window coming to a close, our program directors and administrators are very busy rostering players to teams, assigning coaches, preparing schedules, lining fields, and updating website pages.
For your information, the schedule is as follows:
-
Feb 1st through Feb 7th - Players assigned to teams.
-
Feb 8th - Completed rosters shared with coaches and parents.
-
Week of Feb 13th - Practices start for most age groups (U4s will be contacted separately regarding their start date).
-
Week of Feb 20th - Game schedules released for all age groups apart from U4s.
-
Weekend of March 4th - Games start for most age groups (U4s will be contacted separately regarding their start date).
We are always excited to hear from parents who would be interested in becoming one of our program coaches. Being a youth soccer coach can be a very rewarding and memorable experience, and the club can offer plenty of support, including free coaching classes that provide a state certification. Details can be found under ‘Programs’ then ‘Coaching Courses’ at www.ssaelite.com. If you would like to volunteer as a coach, please contact us at [email protected] ASAP!
Finally, don't forget to look over our website pages to find out how to get the most out of a soccer season, including Parent and Coach Handbooks, field addresses, uniform requirements, local contacts, field rainout text update numbers, and, of course, the game schedules themselves when completed.
We look forward to seeing you at the fields!
Sincerely,
SSA Admin and Coaching Staff
