Practice Fields
League Reps, you are the person in charge of each practice field for each league. So, the teams in your league will have to contact you to reserve a practice time. If you have more then 2 requests for the same time slot, then use your best judgment to decide who practices when.

Fall Scheduling
Play Ups
NELSA has been receiving a number of calls from parents who want their child to “play up” an age group. For example, their child is a U9 player, but they want to play on a U10 team. NELSA strongly discourages play ups in any age group. Typically, the child is overwhelmed by playing against older children and it hinders the child’s development as a soccer player. However, if you want your child to “play up” in the next age group, you will have to submit a request in writing to the NELSA Board. Please include all reasons why you want your child to play up. The board will then consider each request on a case by case basis. Thank you.
