I. Policy for Team
Organization: |
|
*Try outs will be held for fall
and the following spring seasons the week after
State Cup. This is usually the first week of
June. The Director of Coaching, coaches and The
Travel Committee will create rosters after
tryouts. Special tryouts for high school age
teams and extra players may be held after the
regular fall season (generally, the first week
of November). |
|
*Tentative Team rosters with our
offer to play, will be posted on our website,
www.greenfieldsoccer.org, no more than seven
days after the last day of try outs. |
|
*Parents/players will have one
week to respond to the aforementioned offer to
join the team. |
|
*The Greenfield Strikers FC will
strive to develop and maintain age pure teams
for all members. |
|
If there are insufficient
numbers, age groups may be merged to create one
team. |
|
*Players may petition to play-up
only at time of try-outs. Individual players
may be moved up only if the age pure designated
team has sufficient numbers. The Director of
Coaching will select any final candidates from
those petitioning and/or any player he/she deems
appropriate. These candidates to play-up will
then be presented to the Board of Directors.
The Board of Directors must approve any move by
a majority vote. |

outside our club is prohibited by all coaches,
players, parents and affiliates of our club

notify managers and parent coaches in advance of
any necessary absences. Paid coaches will be
required to have three parent meetings, one at
the start of the season, one mid-season and one
