JCYSL is ALL VOLUNTEER• Without volunteers we’d have
– No Coaches– No Referees– No fields to play on– No uniforms– No fair game / balanced teams– No team pictures…..– This is YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
– TURN IN YOUR NOMINATION FORM NOW– Several board members knew little about soccer or thought they had the
time. If you bring your child to the fields, you make the time AND JCYSL trains you for FREE!

Silent Saturday: For the purity of the game (4/27)
Develop our players to make decisions on the field without sideline intervention. Improve the players' communication on the field by reducing the outside noise
level. Support our youth referees by eliminating all dissension from the sidelines.Guidelines• All coaches and parents must remain totally silent on the sidelines. Vocal
support is NOT allowed. • Celebrate your players' success with applause!!!!
Charles Town / Jefferson Ave Parking: • We are playing next to a cemetery and not parking IN it. Same for Hunter St.
neighborhood. Police patrols may be in force.• Proceed slowly & carefully near the fields. • Park efficiently since we have limited space.• Obey traffic flow signs• Arrive early to park & enjoy the game.

U-6 Division Changes• Fact: simply not enough referees• Fact: U-6 has very simple rules:
– Start/Stop Play and Time – This doesn’t require a referee, only a facilitator
• Fact: Coaches have had this additional responsibility– New Fact: A few 10+year olds (future referees) will help
• Fact: parents are already at the game– Why not learn a little and get involved?– One parent from each team:
• First half: Parent A on the field for start/stop, Parent B keeps time
• Second half: switch• All facilitators require a volunteer form at www.eayso.org
– U-6 Facilitator Role Play – brief training session
19
U-5 Program Guidelines• The objective of this program is to provide young
players and their parents with a “pressure free” introduction to the beautiful and simple game of soccer. At this age, players should be exposed to soccer by playing simple, fun activities and games that require little to no practice, and a minimal time commitment.
This program allows players to discover the game for themselves, while parents are given a soccer foundation on which to build and grow into future AYSO coaches, referees and administrators. (The AYSO U-5 Program is not to be considered a coaching program. )
• The U-5 program consists of one day (Game Day) per week of the Jamboree One with One program for 8 weeks.
