Hello LCYSA Families,
We are excited to announce that LCYSA will be offering Spring Pickup Games on our South field this season! Here are the details:
Dates: Saturdays, April 4th through May 9th
Times:
Registration: Limited to 60 players per session. To ensure an optimal experience, there could be up to 4 substitutes per field depending on attendance.
Game Format:
Fields will likely be set up for either two 2v2 games or one 4v4 game to encourage more touches on the ball and better decision-making.
Players may be mixed across grade levels to create balanced and competitive teams.
Additional Info:
There will be no referees, but field monitors will be present to help resolve any concerns and assist with substitutions.
No goalkeepers will be used, and players will be encouraged to join the attack and avoid "puppy guarding" the goal.
Players are also encouraged to control the ball and focus on dribbling or making intentional passes rather than simply kicking the ball.
Important Notes for Parents/Guardians:
Parents are required to stay at the field complex but are not expected to watch the games.
Parents who do watch are kindly asked not to give instructions during the game. This is a great opportunity for players to be creative and explore the game on their own. Encouragement and cheering are always appreciated!
What to Bring:
We look forward to seeing everyone on the field!
Best regards,
Jessica Cross
