Canceling games

Coaches (U9 and above), if you are going to cancel a game out at the complex, please make sure you advise the referee coordinator. In the past few weeks, we have had referees show up for games that had been canceled by the coaches. NELSA still pays the referess for showing up for the game. So, please, if you are going to cancel a game, please make sure you email the referee coordinator.

Do not use Orange No. 1 or Green No. 1

Coaches, please do not use fields Orange No. 1 or Green No. 1 for games or practices until after March 31st. The fields are beaten up pretty bad and we are trying to give them time to heal so that they can be used for the Girls Western District next month. Thanks.

Scheduling make-up games

Coaches and Parents. Please make sure that you make every effort to reschedule any game that has been canceled either this past Saturday or back on February 16th. It is up to the coaches to make sure that they contact each other and schedule make up games. The NELSA office will not schedule the make up games. If you are in the U9 and above age groups, you will need to make sure you email the referee assignor and provide information about the make up game so that he can assign referees for your game. Thanks.
