Hopefully everyone is having a great summer so far - we can't have asked for much better weather.
REGISTRATION
We also hope your kids have been dribbling the ball around the house, yard, or park at some point over the last few weeks in anticipation of the Fall Soccer Season. Team submission for the Fall leagues is approaching quickly. We are coordinating with the League hosts and are trying to finalize the number of teams. If your child(ren) is/are interested in League Soccer, please click the following Registration link to signup. https://registration.buzz/barnabas/ The In-House (Coffee) League Registration will be ongoing through the beginning of school if you are still deciding to do both.
REFEREES
We are looking for referees for the Fall Leagues. Games for those will be played at Graver Park, Crescent Park, or the St. Walter's Field. 5th and 6th graders can referee games in the 1st and 2nd grade leagues while 7th and 8th graders can referee 1st thru 4th. StB Soccer alums are also welcome for the older kids. Each of the leagues has a small training for which they haven't shared details yet other than there will be training. There are also some helpful videos on YouTube (about 30 minutes each) to go over the basic rules for first time referees. All of these details will be better known closer to the season. Please contact us to signup.
SOCCER INFORMATION
Just a reminder as we begin to use this email system more regularly, at the bottom of this email and all major email campaigns will be two links: one to Unsubscribe (hopefully you won't click that one) and one to update your preferences, which will allow you to customize which types of emails you receive (All, Coffee League, Camps, Watch Parties, etc.). Let us know how we can best communicate with you.
Most StB Soccer In-Season updates will be posted more frequently on our Blogger page. The website for the Blogger is: https://saintbarnabassoccer.blogspot.com/. It is mobile friendly, so it's a good site to bookmark. Also, the initial game schedules for each League Team will be linked on the Blog with an ics download available for your individual calendars. None of the leagues use dedicated software, so we hope to have a single reference point for parents coordinating very busy schedules. More to come on this.
Please email saintbarnabassoccer@gmail.com with any questions. We look forward to seeing you in about 4 weeks!
