[CorvallisAYSO] Region Updates
Sat 6/22/2019 5:31 PM

Hello AYSO Region 149 Families,

Here is an update on registration, summer camps, EXTRA, 5-A-Side survey, volunteer training, and anticipated school year calendar.

Open Registration Closes This Weekend: Remember to get your registration done online (here), and to confirm your friends have got it done. After this weekend, special requests also close, so get those in (here). We will have a limited registration to fill gaps in August, during limited registration placement is not guaranteed and most special requests would only be considered for head coaches and referees willing to center.

Helper & Volunteer Signups: I will be sending out confirmation emails to volunteers and helpers next week to confirm we have the right data, if you do not see an email, indicate interest (here).

Registered Players: I will send an email to newly registered players to confirm player details next week, all others that registered in May, should have received an email already, if not, check your junk mail, I always include CorvallisAYSO in the subject line.


Summer Camps: First Camp starts on Monday; a few spots are open, register (here). The other camps starting on July 22 and August 12, you can register (here). NOTE: during the camp week, they offer clinics. The goalkeeper and goalscorer clinics are Thursday 5-7pm of the camp week. Go to the registration site, click on a camp, and select additional programs.


AYSO EXTRA: Formation is done and training sessions are going on now over summer. Placed/Expected players will have registration open in July. If you are interested in EXTRA, there might be an opportunity as a practice player or to join for a summer pickup game, contact the coordinator (Boys EXTRA) - (Girls EXTRA).


5-A-Side Survey: If you or your player participated in spring 5-A-Side, I would like your feedback (here). What did you think of the event, the format, match ups, etc. Other ideas?


Volunteers: You will learn about team placements in early August, some of you could be earlier as you might be asked to help with formation. We are short division coordinators for 9UB & 11UG, can you help (here)?

Coach Volunteers: Most of you will be moving to a new division. All will still have a classroom part and a field part to training. All coaches should expect to attend a division related field/practical training in late August, we will offer a few days/evenings, but they can be 2-3 hours. Lower divisions (6U-11U) we will have most of what was in the classroom, available online. Upper divisions (13U+) will have most of the classroom training, online, but still have a short classroom training/collaboration. Additional coach refresher or specialized coach trainings might be offered, so keep an eye out for those (How to train a Goalkeeper, Formation & Tactics, Evaluation & Focused Training, etc.). If you are interested in helping run a training or clinic, contact Dan (here).

Referee Volunteers: Some big items are changing in the LOTG and returning referees should expect to come to a refresher class to get the finer details and examples. Much of the new referee training is moving to a field/practical focus, with more of the classroom items being online. We are also looking at simplifying the process for getting further training and working to clear up confusion about what you need to get the next level of certification. If you are interested in helping run or take a training, contact Chris (here).

Team Manager Volunteers: We will continue to have in person trainings for new managers. I am also looking to expand a resources catalog to help you with various tasks, so be on the lookout for that.


Region Calendar: You can see the region calendar online (here). You can also add the calendar to Google or another WebCal tool (here).
-- Next Week: Start on Fall Team Formation, we could use help w/ 7UB, 9UB, & 11UG formation (here).

[CorvallisAYSO] EXTRA Boys Formation Event 6/14 @ 6pm
Wed 6/5/2019 11:45 AM

Hey AYSO Families,

Is your son wanting to play more soccer? If so, the Corvallis AYSO Region 149 EXTRA program is the perfect opportunity! The program is designed for kids to play a slightly more competitive level of soccer with their peers/classmates. EXTRA can offer year round scrimmages, summer practices, advanced training sessions, and/or league games versus teams outside Corvallis.

Everyone going into 2nd-8th grade is eligible to attend our formation event (Tryouts), which will take place Friday June 14 from 6-8pm at Adams. We will meet at the main sheds and break into groups. Please arrive on time with completed attached registration form. We will form Boys U-12 and U-14 teams using their 2019/20 age/grade level.

Volunteers: Teams are required to have volunteers that meet AYSO guidelines, a Coach, Assistant Coach, Referee, and Team Manager/Team Treasurer before they can be formed.

Fees: The cost to participate on an EXTRA league team would be $150 per player which includes practices, full jersey set, field use fee, membership fee, and both Fall and Spring league fee. Costs to participate as a practice player or substitute player can vary.

Structure: The focus of the EXTRA teams will be Fall and Spring league play versus teams outside the Corvallis area. Each season this is typically 4 home and 4 away games (Eugene, Salem, Albany).

Requirements: All EXTRA players are required to also take part in the Region's Core Program. Those not currently registered with AYSO can attend tryouts and be placed on a team but must register for Core prior to participating with their EXTRA team. Please note, this formation event is for Boys EXTRA teams only. If your son cannot attend the event please notify the Boys EXTRA Coordinator in advance.

For more information reply to this email.

EXTRA needs a coordinator to help for the upcoming year, fill out a board application (here) if you are interested.

Host a Coach

We are also looking for host families for the camp week. Host families benefit by learning about the British way of life and its cultural differences, whilst enhancing their soccer education. The differences of our language and backgrounds, combined with the love of soccer, ensure a memorable stay and long lasting friendships for everyone. Each host family will receive 1 free half day scholarship to the camp for each coach they host.

Here is a little more information regarding hosting...

What do you receive?
-- Camp scholarship! (free place on camp)
-- UK Goodies, including shirts & balls.
-- A very fun, educational and rewarding experience for your children! 

Key points:
-- UK coaches work in the mornings and some weekends.
-- There is no expectation to entertain the coaches - you'll find the coaches quite entertaining themselves!
-- They will have their own rental car transportation, therefore transportation is not required.
-- UK coaches are professionally qualified coaches, experienced in working with children and with multiple background checks.
-- Hosting lasts one week, and is during the week of Camp.

Expectations:
-- Suitable sleeping arrangements - coaches cannot share rooms with family members.
-- Some family meals if appropriate - you can set your own rules with regard to mealtimes.
-- Access to laundry and showering facilities.
-- Any house rules or routines that you wish the coach to adhere to.

For more information please visit: https://uksoccer.com/host-a-coach/

Thanks,
Luke Cotton - Region Commissioner

[CorvallisAYSO] Fall 2019 Registration

Hello |User First Name|,

We have extended the player open registration time through Mid-June for next school year. Most of the divisions will consist of the same players you played with in Spring 2019.

Register Now (here)

If you already registered, you should have received another email with the expected season timeline. All emails sent, are recorded (here).

Why should I register now?
-- Special Requests: If you played in 10U, next year you are likely in 11U, and most of the players will be the same kids you saw in 10U. If your player was not suited for that division, developmentally they were not ready or they smoked past other players, right now you can make the request to potentially get special placement or play up a division.
-- Team Balance: We work to find a balance, adding in factors like outside sports, years of soccer, and coach evaluations. The more time a division coordinator has to work on these items, the better the games and teams will be.
-- Uniform Ordering: Late uniform and special uniform orders cost us more. We are making some adjustments this upcoming year to reduce that cost, but when you add 300 players in two weeks, it gets tough to keep that cost down and ensure timely delivery.
-- Refunds: For those that register now, if you discover in August that another activity is preferred, you can get a refund of $68 (here). The membership cost of $20 & the processing fee $2 is not refundable. If you are placed during late registration, in most cases, you are out the full cost.

What if we reconsider in August?
At Limited Registration times, you get what is available. We will work with volunteers to try and accommodate requests, but everyone else is first come first serve and luck of the draw. Sometimes we can build new teams, but they are often an assortment of players from all around the city. For early registrants, we work hard to get you placed in your primary practice zones, if we have enough and the balance is right, we sometimes can build teams by schools.

Thanks,
Luke Cotton - Region Commissioner

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
