EYPSA

Approved Three-Year
Youth Game Referee Fee Schedule
League and Cup Fees

For Inter-County Games each team will pay 1/2 the fee to the Center Referee when you give them your lineup . For other leagues consult their rules. 

Know the rules... be prepared.... Click Here for the Inter-County Soccer League game day rules.

 Below are the rules in place from Buckingham Township in regards to use of township fields. 

1. No games or PRACTICE may take place if it is raining.

2. No games may take place if the fields received 1" or more of rain the day before.

3. If it is not raining in the morning, but starts to rain during the day, those games may not be played. We know this poses a problem for travel teams as some visiting teams come a long distance to play. Try to see if a field is available and open at Herbst....

These rules do not apply to Herbst or the school fields, but we ask you to use common sense about playing on the fields during bad weather.

(Especially fields like Holicong Jr High that do not have much grass to begin with.

If you use the fields when they are closed per these rules the township can and has pulled permission for BUSC to use the fields for all teams. Please use common sense.

Thank You

Dear Fellow Coaches:

This is a reminder to please promote and encourage your players and families to attend some or all of our Red Bull Club nights. We need to make these TEAM events. This is important that we as coaches do this for several reasons...

• We are their Soccer mentors and getting our players to watch professional level games is an important way to learn how to play the game. We need to lead this initiative.
• Kids will actually practice on their own and work harder at your practices when they have developed a real passion for the game and really aspire to be a better player. Becoming a fan of the professional game builds that passion. We need to nurture that passion.
• Kids enjoy doing things as a team... my boys love overnight tournaments... not because the games or the tournaments are really any different than local ones. They love hanging out together... at Dinner, at the pool... everywhere. These games are another great team event that builds friendships and helps keep teams together. Make these games a TEAM event... once half get on board the others will follow... but we as coaches need to get it started
• It's FUN... It's good for your TEAM... It's good for the Club ... help make your players real FANS... It's a Beautiful Game!

Thanks for humoring me... and reading this.

BUSC Coaches -

Tryouts begin next week for BUSC.  We've had advertisements appearing in the Intell and Ed has posted our signs up all over the area!  We will be sending out an email blast newsletter to prospects and our exisitng base, which includes guest and inactive players that you may have on your team site. 

The Registration is officially open on our website and the Tryout Page has many FAQ's posted that should help new registrants answer questions they may have. Please post on your website your tryout dates. 

I plan on sending tryout rosters(excel spreadsheet) a few days before your tryout and then the day of.  If you need updates as to the numbers signed up or a listing sooner, simply email me at buckinghamunitedsc@verizon.net 

Last year we received great feedback on our tryouts and how smoothly they ran.  Please remind your players to welcome new players with respect and BUSC sportsmanship.

Some coaches have asked how we are running the tryouts this year.  Hopefully the facts below will clear up any confusion or lingering questions:

• Head Coaches of each Age Group run their tryouts. 
• Have your managers run the check in table
• Independent evaluators will be supplied by the Club thorugh Neil Smart of SMART Soccer.  He will assign a trainer for your nights.
• You may also solicit the help of other coaches - I can send out an email with your request to the coaching database if you'd like
• BUSC suggest that you use small-sided games to evaluate the players as well as a full side on the last day
• Have evaluation forms that are easy to use for your evaluators- if you need a sample - I can supply
• If a player cannot make the tryout dates, you can absolutely try them out at your practice
• Use a Number system to identify players, not names.  The running shoe stores can usually provide race numbers to pin on.  Consider buying with a few coaches and re-use for your own tryout.  Don't forget to buy safety pins!
• All players must register- preferably online to check off the waiver, otherwise please have paper copies at your field.
• Please address the parents and let them know your ground rules for tryouts to run smoothly(such as observe silently, no coaching etc)
• Let parents and players know that a decision will be made within 2 weeks that will identify the team(s)  It's suggested that you ask for their acceptance within 24 hours and a deposit to ensure their commitment.

As soon as Neil Smart has the list of trainers identifed, I will email the list out.  If you have any questions, please email me.  Good Luck everyone!  Have Fun!

Registration is now OPEN for Try outs

Thanks!
