Youth Soccer

·   Youth Soccer is open to all children in grades K-6 who either reside in Truro or attend Truro Central School.

·   Fees: $20.00 per child.  Cash or Checks made payable to “Truro Recreation” will be accepted. $5.00 discount if registered prior to deadline.

·   Specific practice times and game schedules will be distributed once coaches have been determined.  All schedules are subject to change due to weather, coaching availability and unforeseen circumstances.

·   Parents and children alike are reminded that Truro Recreation encourages the development of skills, team work, and social bonds.  The goals of Youth Sports are to provide children an opportunity to play, exercise, and learn sportsmanship in a fun way.  Any child or parent who acts in ways that prohibit these goals, threaten the physical or emotional safety and development of children, referees, or coaches, will be unable to attend the Program.

·   In the event of rain, please check the Truro Recreation website at www.truro-ma.gov/recreation or call the Recreation Dept at 508-487-1632 x22 for information about cancellations.  The Recreation Department will make an effort to also email those parents on our email list, should a game be cancelled due to weather so be sure to check those emails.

·   Grades 3-6 teams will likely be combined with Provincetown in an effort to field a full team.

·   EQUIPMENT NEEDED: Players must wear shin guards. Cleats are recommended for children in grades 3-6.  (The Rec. Dept is able to loan some cleats).  Water bottles and weather appropriate clothing are strongly encouraged.

 

Grades K-2

Children in grades K-2 will practice once a week.  If teams sufficiently develop basic skills and coaches believe teams are ready for games, efforts will be made to schedule games with other local teams toward the end of the season.

Grades 3-6

Children in grades 3-6 will practice once or twice a week depending on the team and scheduling availability.  They will have one game per week and will often have to travel to other towns for those games.  Home games will be held at Snow’s Field.

 

COACHING:

Truro Recreation is seeking volunteer coaches for the 2011 season.  Experience is not necessary.  If you’re interested please fill out the “Potential Coaches” section of the registration.
