How
do I register my
child for soccer and how much does it cost?
Click here to go straight to the
registration page for information about FALL Soccer.
Any new first time player must bring a copy of their
birth certificate to registration. Please make sure it's
a copy as we must keep it for our records.
Spring Travel soccer is available to children who have
played at least once in the FALL program, and attend the
tryouts held in the Fall.
When
does the FALL soccer season start?
The season usually starts the first Saturday in September.
It runs for eight-ten (8-10) weeks on Saturdays. Game
times vary from 8am until 3pm week by week.
How
do I know what team my
child is on?
RYSA
does not mail any information regarding your child's team
to you. You will get a call from your child's coach in
mid-August. Due to vacations, many coaches may not start
practice until a week before the season starts.
My
coach hasn't contacted me
yet concerning my child's team assignment?
Please wait until at least the end of August before contacting RYSA if
you have not heard from your coach. RYSA's info-line is (781)963-2936.
Where
and when are practices?
Coaches
select their dates, fields and times for practices.
Practice is generally once a week. All games are on
Saturdays.
How
old
do you have to be to play in the Fall season?
Children
are allowed to play in the RYSA Fall season if they are
at least 5 yrs or no older than 14 yrs on or before July
31st.
What
equipment do I need to play?
RYSA
provides game jersey, socks. The U6 kids also get a
soccer ball.
You will need to purchase the following:
- Shorts. Black is a good bet since it will go with any
color jersey.
- Shin guards. Mandatory.
- Soccer cleats (not baseball cleats, or cleats with
metal studs). Required.
- Water bottle. Recommended.
How
can I help?
RYSA is
a volunteer organization, so VOLUNTEER!!! From coaching
or assisting, through our fundraiser, or concession
stand, we can use your help. It is a great way to meet
neighbors, schoolmates and become a part of the Randolph
Youth Soccer Community!!!
Call the hotline 781.963.2936 or send us the Adult
Registration form to VOLUNTEER!!
Why
can't my child be on the same team as her best friend?
Requests
for particular coaches or for players to be on teams with
particular players should be included on the registration
form. No guarantees are made that these requests will
be fulfilled, however we can guarantee that if you
your child is a returning player and you do not make the
request during mail-in registration, that your chances of
the request being fulfilled later is very unlikely.
We cannot honor requests to be put on a team which
practices in a certain part of town or on a certain night.
We have no idea where or what time the coach will
practice until the season starts.
My
daughter changed her mind about playing soccer...can I
get a refund?
Refunds
WILL be issued if: there is not enough players in only
the U15 age group to field teams; in the case of military
move; or if a player is injured before the season starts,
subject to $10 administrative fee. All other refund
requests must be in submitted to the Registrar in writing
prior to July 1 for the Fall season playing. Any refund
is subject to $10 administrative fee.
It's
raining...
what do we do?
Most
coaches or their team parents will notify you if a
practice or game will be called off due to rain or other
nasty weather. If you aren't sure, call the RYSA Hotline
at (781) 963-2936 for game day only. Call your coach if
it's a practice. On the morning of the game, a message
will also be left on the Hotline. If there is no messages
for that day and you have not been notified, assume games
are being held and come on up to the field! If the
weather worsens, referees have the authority to cancel
games.
Please note that if games are canceled by RYSA due to
inclement weather, they may be rescheduled to be played
on the Saturday following the end of season.
I'm
looking for a summer soccer camp.
Does RYSA offer any?
If RYSA is able to
schedule summer soccer camp(s), information will be available on the web page.
