Here you find answers to some of the more frequently asked questions that we receive. We hope that this can be a useful resource to you. If you still have questions that are not answered here or you would like to contact us for another reason please feels free to contact us.

Question : How old does my child have to be to play?

Answer : Your child must have turned 4 years old by August 1st of the current year. The age of your child on that date sets their "League Age".

Question : Who will be my child's coach?

Answer : Coaches are all volunteers. At the time of sign-ups we can not tell you who will be your child's coach. Coaches are based on who volunteered to coach and the make up of the children that have signed up. Once your child has been assigned to a team, the coach will contact you.

Question : Is there a discount for signing up more than one child?

Answer : Yes. Each additional child is half the regular rate.

Question : What is the concession stand fee? Will I get that back?

Answer : The concession stand fee is there to start up the concession stand and encourage you to assist in running it for a day during the season.

The fee will be returned upon completion of your time assisting in the stand.

Question : Will my child be on a travelling team?

Answer : Travelling soccer starts with children who are league age 8 at the start of the season.

Question : Is my child's coach trained to be a coach? Are they being paid?

Answer : All travelling coaches are required to obtain an "F" License. This requires a nine hour training course to be completed.

The Intermural coaches are not required to have this license, but are encouraged to do so.

No coaches are paid for their time.
