Frequently Asked Questions
- When does soccer start, and
who will contact me?
-
Soccer will begin in May. The exact date
of your first practice or game will depend
on your age group, and your coaches
preference. You will be contacted by your
coach usually between the 2nd and 3rd week
of May, the coach will tell you the time and
place for your team meeting and you should
receive information on practices and games
at this meeting.

- What night will my games be
played?
-
Your game night or schedule will not be
determined until registration by all clubs
is complete, and field and referee
availability has been determined. Mini
players will usually have games on a
consistent day and time, but all age groups
may experience some change throughout the
season.

- What are bond hours?
-
Every club or organization has a number
of tasks that must be completed in order to
function effectively. Some clubs will pay
people to perform these tasks, others will
use a combination of paid and volunteer
staff. Wasaga Soccer is run %100 by
volunteers which helps us maintain lower
registration costs and family involvement.
Bond hours essentially mean that each family
must complete 5 hours or equivalent of
volunteer time for Mini players Youth age
11-12 3 hours, and youth 13-18 2 hours. This
requirement is a total per family not per
registered player. Each family is required
to do the amount designated by their
youngest player. At the start of the season
you will work out with your coach what tasks
are available to complete your bond hours.
Common tasks include coaching, working
lines, a team manager, a bond hour rep,
first aid, team snack, or even assisting
with our picnic our equipment or
registration. After you have completed your
hours your Bond check will be destroyed. If
you do not complete your hours your check
will be cashed September 15th.

- Can I request that my child
be on the same team as his/her friend?
-
Please be advised
that no requests will be accepted this
season, unless there are extenuating
circumstances which will be reviewed by the
Board. We try very hard to balance teams
based on players abilities. It is very
likely you will know someone on the team. As
the same age divisions, play on the same
night, the issue of transportation is
alleviated.
