Refund Policy
Refunds will be granted prior to games starting. If games have started, refunds will only be given if the player’s ability to participate has been impacted by family or medical status (change in school schedule, injury/illness, family moving, etc.).
Contact registration@scsysl.com with any questions or requests.
Concussion Information
Concussions aren’t something to mess around with. Please read the article, CONCUSSION: LET’S TAKE BRAIN INJURIES OUT OF PLAY, from US Soccer about concussions, prevention, symptoms, and treatment.
WHAT’S INCLUDED IN THE REGISTRATION FEE?
Included in the registration fee is up to 10 games (weather permitting) and for U8 and above, State Certified Referees. U6 coaches will referee their own games. Your player will also be covered under our league’s insurance in case your player has an injury at a practice or game; insurance does not cover Covid-19 related care or services. In the Fall, there is a 3v3 tournament for U8 and above. In the Spring there are player vs parents games at the end of the season. We also have a 5-v-5 tournament for U12 in the Spring.
What does it cost?
For the Spring 2026 Season, Scooter Shooters and U6 is $65, $130 for U8 and up. These costs are per season, not per year. Seasons are Fall and Spring.
WHAT IS SCOOTER SHOOTERS?
Scooter Shooters offers children ages 3-4 years old the chance to learn soccer basics in a fun, free-play environment. Coaches will facilitate activities that teach soccer skills in a gym-class game style format (e.g. red light/green light, sharks and minnows, chase the player with the flag, etc.) There are no formal soccer games for Scooters – structured games start at U6. Each session is 50-minutes long, held weekly for 8 weeks.
DO I NEED TO BUY ANY EQUIPMENT FOR MY CHILD?
The only thing that is required is shin guards and soccer cleats; no toe cleat! Scooter shooters and U6 players may wear tennis shoes, but cleats are required for U8-U14. You must buy your own, the league does not supply them. During games and practices, shin guards must be worn and completely covered by soccer socks or weather appropriate pants. Registration for all divisions includes a jersey.
HOW ARE TEAMS DETERMINED?
Our philosophy as a social, recreational soccer league for children is to keep players with the same teammates and coaches whenever possible. By default whenever possible, we will assign returning players to their same team. When players age up to the next division, we strive to place them on teams with other aging-up returning players from their previous teams. We also take coaches requests from individuals and do our best to accommodate those.
When do they play?
Scooters – Fridays at 6pm
U6 – Sundays and Wednesdays.
U8 – Mondays and Wednesdays.
U10 – Tuesdays and Thursdays.
U12 – Saturdays and Tuesdays.
U14 – Sundays and Thursdays.
These game days are dependent on fields and referees for some divisions. There may be an odd game on a day not described here. Rest assured, we do our best to adhere to this game day schedule.
WHAT ARE THE DIVISION/AGE GROUPS?
Scooter Shooters (described above), Under 6 (u6), Under 8 (u8), Under 10 (u10), Under 12 (u12) and Under 14 (u14). All of our age groups are co-ed, based on birth year.
To see the birth years, please, visit MSYSA’s Age Group Eligibility Chart. This chart determines the minimum age group of your player. Children may play up with authorization from the league, but they may not play in a younger age division, regardless of skills.
CAN I COACH?
Volunteer Coaches are always needed. Please contact the Director of Coaches if you’re interested in coaching.
I have a problem with a referee…
Referees are hard to come by these days; it has become a dangerous job. If you’re concerned and feel that you could do better, please take the course, become certified and help out within SCSYSL. SCSYSL does pay it’s referees, we don’t expect them to do this job for free.
Please keep in mind that it is ok to ask a referee to clarify a call during half time, but it is not ok to approach them during the game or berate them at any time you are on a field. Yelling, berating, or complaining at our referees can result in discipline of any player or spectator, which can include permanent banning from the league. If you have an issue with a referee, do not confront them – instead, contact our referee assignor and the league president. Their contact information is available on the Board of Directors page.
