2020 Winter Soccer Clinics

All winter soccer programs have a set, progressional curriculum designed by our VSC coaching staff which will challenge the individuals to ensure maximum success in an enjoyable and non-pressured environment. The clinic will focus on foot skills, passing, receiving and some small-sided games when able. It's a great way to maximize touches on the ball and hone some passing skills. It's also a great way to get a bit of conditioning before the Spring season starts in March/April.

Playoff Sportsmanship Protocol

All spectators are asked to abide by the NE District "no names" distraction prevention protocol. Please refrain from calling out the names of the players during active play. Let the kids make their own decisions on the field without distractions. Also please refrain from using bull horns and other unusually loud apparatus at the field.

Referees and teams should be prepared to start the match at the conclusion of the ceremony. Referee should carry the game ball.

Teams walk from the centerline near their bench single file (captains last) toward center circle to the center of the field, turn ninety degrees (toward a goal) until they form a line parallel to the sidelines and facing the fans side of the field. Teams walk side by side with opposing team and behind the referee team.

One team will be in line at one side of the field in front of their bench area, the other in line at the other side in front of their bench area, and facing spectators.

The referee will conduct the coin toss with the captains.

The assistant referees will perform a ceremonial equipment check, and return to the center of the field.

The players will then shake hands similar to post game sportsmanship practices and proceed to their positions on the field or on the bench.

Then game on.

All,

Please find attached a revised copy of the 2019 NED Jamboree Schedule and Ref Assignments for this upcoming weekend. Please help get this information to those that need to know. This only impacts the U15 girl's teams on Sunday as another team was added to that division.

Please arrive early and stop by the check-in table located inside the bubble on Sat/Sun to verify your schedule. It is not uncommon for jamboree matches and fields to be adjusted on the fly.

Many thanks to our hosts at Star Hill (Mike and his team), our NED leadership team (Chafik, Dave & Rick), our ref assignor Eric Baughman from WAM, and Caroline Johnson & Julie Hughes from CWSA (schedule creation). Their participation in coordinating this has allowed us to have another year with this wonderful low-cost event for our NED players.
