Registration for Recreational soccer typically runs May
1 – June 30 through the club’s online registration at
http://www.snohomishyouthsoccer.org under the “SYSC
Club Registration” link.
Medical Release forms will be included in your
registration receipt (via email) and should be completed
and returned to your coach at the first
practice/meeting.
New players joining SYSC are required to provide a copy
of a Birth Certificate to the club offices.
Equipment: All players should have soccer cleats or
athletic shoes, shin guards, and an appropriate size
soccer ball for practices and games (See Recreational
Overview for ball size).
Teams and coaches are assigned at the conclusion of the
registration period (July). Where possible, teams are
formed based on school and home address location.
Returning players generally remain with their current
team/coach unless otherwise requested.
Specific requests for teams, coaches, or teammates may
be given consideration, but cannot be guaranteed.
Practices generally begin in late August. League games
begin the weekend after Labor Day. Typically, U-5 Micro
soccer games take place on Friday evenings while all
other ages play on Saturday or Sunday.
Practice days are established in August based on field
availability and coach’s requests.
Requests for players to “play up” (above their
appropriate age) are taken into consideration with input
from parents, coaches, and with final approval from SYSC
staff based on each child’s maturity, physical and
technical capability, previous demonstrated ability, and
age-to-grade level.
Players are not allowed to play down without an
exception granted by Washington State Youth Soccer.
