Calling all new middle school spring soccer teams!

San Francisco Police Activities League (SFPAL) would like to invite you to participate in the 2009-10 soccer season, in partnership with California Youth Soccer League (CYSA.)

We are accepting new teams in the U11-U14 age group (kids born between 1995 and 1999.)  Age division will be determined by the age of your oldest player.    Kids can play up a division, but not down.  Teams in these age divisions need 14 to 18 players.  All players must be residents of San Francisco or attend school in San Francisco.

You must also have a minimum of two coaches for each team.  A coach is any adult who will be giving direction and wishes to have access to the player/coach area at games.

If you would like to form a new team, please call Joanna at 401-4666 or joanna@sfpal.org so we can help you put together your team. Please be aware of two important deadlines.  You need to file an “intent to register” form by Thursday, December 24, 2010.  All team registration forms must be turned in by Monday, January 25, 2010.

You can find all the forms you need in the soccer section of our website.
