Dear Coach:

As another season ends we begin to look forward to tryouts and another year.  All coaches from the age groups of U11 and above should make up an information sheet that will be distributed to parents prior to any commitment to the upcoming year. You may want the parents to sign these forms after reading!  Include all areas budget, Training, Tournaments, Xplosive Edge, International Camp and so on,

Included should be your feelings and concerns for secondary sports and any actions that you may take.

The following is just an example as to what you can request as a coach:

            U11 – Secondary sports allowed

            U12 – Secondary sports allowed, but cannot miss any games

            U13 – Secondary sports allowed, but cannot miss any games or practices

            U14 – Secondary sports allowed, but must not conflict with soccer

            U15 and above – Total commitment to soccer

One practice missed – Less playing time

One game missed – Miss first half etc

All coaches must be responsible to update their feelings and concerns on a year to year basis.  This will hopefully give the coaches the commitment and dedication that we give to our player and parents.  These guidelines may help prevent mid-season problems.

We would also like to take this opportunity to thank all of our coaches for their time and commitment to Arsenal.

Thank you
