DEADLINES/FEES:
Early bird registration period runs from November 16 to midnight, December 21, 2011 (or until spots in a division are filled) and the early bird registration fee is $110.00 per player (no multiple player/family discounts for indoor). The regular registration period runs from December 22, 2011 (or until spots on each team are filled) and the regular registration fee during this time period is $135.00.
SPECIAL PLACEMENT REQUESTS:
The club will attempt to honor ONE carpooling request with ONE friend, but this request MUST be a matching (reciprocated) request entered in our online registration system. For example, Player A may request to be placed on a team with Player B, and Player B must request to be placed on a team with Player A. This is done during the online registration process by entering your requested friend’s name in the “Special Request” section of the registration form. NO requests for a specific coach or a specific team are allowed, nor are requests which list multiple players instead of a single carpooling friend. Because this is a community-based recreation league, we make every attempt to balance teams by level of play and by creating teams with a blend of players from many different schools.
TRAVEL PLAYER POLICY:
Currently, travel (carded by EPYSA or US Club Soccer) players are allowed to participate in the recreation indoor league, but only under these conditions: 1) they must identify themselves as travel players when they register, stating their specific team/level in the special request section; 2) they must play one division higher than their current age level; and 3) they are not allowed any special carpooling requests which would allow them to be placed with other travel/carded players. Staff coaches here at WCUSC require that you receive approval from your respective Director of Coaching BEFORE you register for WCUSC’s Recreation Indoor Soccer League.
REGISTRATION REFUND POLICY:
Refunds may be requested until December 31, 2011 (two weekends before the season begins), and a $25.00 service charge will be applied. After December 31, players may drop from the league, but a refund will not be provided.
