I hope this letter finds everyone well and in good spirits. We’re in the peak of the holiday season and for some of us, soccer never ends.
Please keep in mind that the safety, well-being and positive influences of the children in our community continue to be our highest priority. Soccer is a wonderful sport. As parents, we can all make the experience better by learning the rules, asking questions and communicating any concerns to the coaches or the board of directors. We are here to help ensure that every child can have a fun, positive, experience while improving at the great game of soccer.
On our website: www.trsaonline.org, you can find the Board of Directors contact information.
You can also visit MYSA and find illustrated rules / laws of the game. http://www.mnyouthsoccer.org/membership/players.cfm#laws
