Coaching
Please consider coaching your player’s team. Our rec league relies on parent volunteers in order to be successful. Last spring we had 64 teams and a record number of players. Remember, you are not coaching players for the World Cup. The goal for Rec Soccer is for kids to have fun and learn about the game. There will be a new coaches meeting prior to the 1st game. There are also additional resources linked on the Geneseo Soccer Club site under the “Rec Soccer” tab and “Coaching Tips & Practice Plans”.
At the end of the season, the head coach for each team will be reimbursed their child’s fee. A check will be mailed to the address listed for your child.
If a team does not have a coach when teams are formed and no one steps up to volunteer, a parent of one of the players on the team will be assigned as head coach. This could possibly result in a delay in team formation and notification.
Registration Fee
Your child’s registration is not complete until payment is made. The easiest way is to make payments and ensure registration is complete is to pay online. Should you need to mail a check, please send it to the PO Box below.
