AGE
A player must be registered with his/her respective age group as set by the Georgia Youth Soccer Association rules and regulations. The minimum age is 4 years old by July 31, 2008. Players will be allowed to play up under the following circumstances:

(a) If a player has an August birth date. If requested by parents/guardian the player may play up with Age Group Coordinator approval and availability of a position on a team. If at the time of registration this cannot be confirmed, parents will be notified at a later date.
(b) If a player has exceptional skills. During the preceding season the parents/guardians must make a written request to the age group coordinator. The Age Group Coordinator must then observe the player in a game and make a recommendation to the FCYSL Board. The player may play up with board approval and availability of a position on a team. If at the time of registration this cannot be confirmed, parents will be notified at a later date.
(c)

Players will be assigned to age appropriate teams unless a request for the player to play an age up is made in writing to the age group coordinator prior to the coach’s draft. The player must be evaluated by the age group coordinator and recommended by the previous season’s coach. A determination will be made by the age group coordinator, registrar and league Board of Directors. It will also depend on the space available in requested age group.

VOLUNTEERS
FCYSL depends on your participation. 99% of FCYSL consists solely of volunteers. Without these volunteers, children may be turned away, which could include your child. We are especially in need of coaches, co-coaches, and assistant coaches. With FCYSL training, guidance and support, coaching a FCYSL team is NOT beyond your abilities. Remember, without you, our volunteer, there is not FCYSL. If you would like to volunteer for these and possible other positions please contact us at fcysladm@bellsouth.net.
