Another Successful Minisoccer Season Ends; Final Coach Meeting scheduled for Sun 6/8, 12:30 @ Chandler
Posted June 3, 2008
Despite a somewhat damp spring, another successful season of Minisoccer is on the books. Thanks to all the parents, players, coaches, and adminstrators who helped provide a great soccer experience for our younger players this season.
We will hold a final meeting for coaches this Sunday, June 8 at 12:30 at Chandler/Coppens field at the equipment shed to wrap up equipment collection, and distribution of the annual "giveaway" soccer balls for players. Each Minisoccer head coach should arrange for one of the coaches from their team to come to Chandler/Coppens on Sunday at 12:30. Players/families do not need to come to the field; only a coach from each team.
Again, thanks to all for your participation. Have a great summer, and remember to register (early! on time!) for Fall soccer.

Registration for Minisoccer (Under-8 and Under-6) is still open. Look here or under Documents link to the left for the DYSA registration form. (You can read more about DYSA Minisoccer, which is for kids born between 8/1/99 and 7/31/03, under the Minisoccer link at left, or by clicking here.)
*** If you registered for Minisoccer, but have not yet received a call from a coach, please contact the appropriate U6 or U8 Age Group coordinator. See contact information on our Board of Directors page here. ***
Registration for all other age groups (U10 and up) has some openings but you may be placed on a wait list depending on the age group of the player. All rosters have been submitted to the Coastal League and approval from the League Competition Committee is required before we can add players to any team. Due to liability reasons players cannot practice or play until registrations are processed.
Although it seems like this an early deadline for spring soccer, all registration forms and team compositions had to be submitted to the Coastal League by the beginning of December. Spring Soccer is played against other teams on the South Shore so in order to put together rosters and schedules planning is essential.
Our Mini Soccer players, U6 and U8, will have training and games on Sunday afternoons at Coppens Complex, next to Chandler School. (You can read more about DYSA Minisoccer, which is for kids born between 8/1/99 and 7/31/03, under the Minisoccer link at left, or by clicking here.)
U10 through U14 will play their games at Coppens on Saturdays when the game is home. U16 and above will play on Sunday afternoons at Lincoln St Fields.
U10 players will play a 7 v 7 format, or small sided games. U12 will play a 8 v 8 format, small sided games. U14 and above will continue to play 11 v 11 full field games. The most important aspect of our soccer program is to offer a fun and developmental environment for all players with little stress.
