Welcome to the 2024 Spring Season

Welcome to the Spring, 2024 Season!

Practices Start: Next week, February 19th

Where: River City Sportsplex (Fields 1, 2 & 3)

Fields 1, 2, & 3 are the first fields to the left when entering off of Genito Rd. You'll need to park in the main lot and walk along the fieldside path back toward Genito Rd and the first row of fields.

Check-in: Check-in with me (Nick Serfass) at the Welcome Tent between fields 3 & 2.

How early: Be sure to arrive in enough time for your player to be dressed and ready at the appointed start time. This is generally 15-mins before practice begins. For Boys 1/2, this means 25 mins beforehand … because … Boys 1/2.

Coaches will be on-hand to help with equipment for new players and new parents. Don’t stress! We have you covered.

Should I stay?: You are free to leave as you see fit. Boys 1/2 parents are encouraged to stay, at least until your player is comfortable and proficient at putting on and taking off his gear during bathroom breaks.

Where to watch: Anywhere but on the field unless you are wearing a helmet. Those helmets are for stray balls as much as they are for player contact.

T-Shirts: All players will receive a performance shooter t-shirt at check-in the first week.

Uniforms: Uniforms are batch shipped to your mailing address right before the first games on 3/9. Uniforms from previous seasons may be used. We try not to change them so that they can be recycled. If you don’t have a uniform, a white or royal blue t-shirt will do.

Team Assignments: All players will be assigned to teams after the first week of practices. Teams are designed for parity with relatively equal amounts of new, experienced, and travel players. We do not accept team or coach requests.

Games: Game schedules will be uploaded for all teams by 3/1.

Tournament: Teams play a tournament on 4/27 at River City Sportsplex. This tournament is run by the Hanover Blackhawk league (not CYL). Please note, games continue on the weekend of 5/4 and 5/11. The tournament is NOT the end of the season, as it has been in the past.
