Introduction of Cardington Lincoln Joint Recreation Board Soccer Program The Cardington-Lincoln Joint Recreation Board Soccer Program was established in the Spring of 2012. The soccer program is open to children 5 years of age through the 12th grade. The original committee consisted of Bryan Seymour-CLJR Board Member, Amy Woodard, Laura Longesdorf, Matt Longsdorf, Denise and Tom Radcliff, and Jonathan Naylor. Planning for this new program started in September of 2011. The program allows children & teens from all over Morrow County and surrounding counties to participate in the program. 2012-2014 the soccer program utilized the Cardington High School practice football field for soccer games and practice. At this time “short-sided” soccer was played. In 2015, the soccer program was able to utilize property behind the school property off of County Road 168. In 2016, a lease was put in place for this piece of property. The Soccer program is a subcommittee off of the Cardington Lincoln Joint Recreation Board. All funds, equipment and leasing information are property of the Cardington – Lincoln Joint Recreation Board.

Mission Statement Our purpose is to provide every player that desires to play soccer, an appropriate place to play; to help make the soccer experience fun and enjoyable; to instill the principles of fair play and sportsmanship. In doing this, we remember that the game is for the kids.

Team Selection Teams are selected randomly. If you are a returning player and in the same bracket(s), we will attempt to put you with the coach you had if the coach is coaching. Our goal is to improve your skills year after year by keeping past players together on a team. If a parent feels their child can not play in the bracket their birth year falls in, they will need to speak with Bryan Seymour about possibly moving the child.

Players Requesting to play up or down from U age – who can authorize? Bryan Seymour Allowable reasons All reasons will be discussed with parent/guardian of child prior to final decision being made. If you feel this is something you need to address, please mark the box on your child’s registration at sign-up time.

• Mentally or severely physically challenged • Safety concern due to child’s size compared to others in the birth year matrix • Any other reason that has been discussed with Bryan Seymour and is deemed allowable

Coach Guidelines These guidelines have been put in place to make our coaching process more formal as well as to follow the same set of rules across the brackets. These guidelines go hand in hand with the code of conduct parents, players and coaches are to sign at registration time. As a parent we understand your concern when voices are raised by coaches on the field. In some instances it may feel as though the coach is picking on the child/teen, in reality the majority of the time raised voices happen in order for the kids to hear what the coach is saying, to make sure the child/teen understands the importance of rules or instruction being given. Some of our coaches have coached prior and have had several of the children/teens on previous teams over several years, the bond between coach and player is there and the child/teen knows that they are not being yelled at in a mean way. For those parents that are new to sports, the raising of the voice is used across most sports. Please talk with your child if this is a new activity for them. Explain that they aren’t yelling at you in a mean way, they are trying to make sure everyone hears them, and to make sure that you understand what they are saying is important. If you child complains to you about being yelled at, please reach out to Bryan Seymour-740-244-1989. He will talk with you, your child and the coach. Also if your child feels they are being bullied on the field by other children/teens Bryan needs to know this too so it can be addressed with the coach the children/teens and the parents involved in a calm fashion. Our coaches are like teachers with several kids to keep track of, they do not always see bullying/picking by others.

How many teams can a coach have? As of the 2017 Season coaches will only be allowed to coach one team. We have had to many issues with scheduling to allow you to coach additional teams. We appreciate our coaches and we want you to enjoy your season too. We feel taking on additional teams is very stressful and can cause burn out.

Principles of Coaching • Developmentally Appropriate. This challenges the coach to examine the appropriateness of the activity. The requirements or demands of the activity should fall within the range of the players’ abilities. Examples include: Attempting to teach a wall-pass to U8’s when they cannot think in advance of the ball or asking a U6 player to stay in a specific position when their spatial awareness is limited and possess a strong desire to chase the ball.

• Clear, Concise and Correct Information. How instructions are given is crucial when dealing with young children. Too much information overwhelms them and too little information doesn’t give them enough to get started. Provide enough information to get them started and then add new challenges.

• Simple to Complex. Are the activities presented in a way that allows for ongoing modifications and new challenges to meet the players interests and abilities?

6

• Safe and Appropriate Training Area. The area should be free of hazardous materials (e.g., glass, stones, branches, holes, etc.) and be safe from traffic or other environmental dangers. The training environment should be psychologically safe. Does the child feel emotionally secure? Is the fear of failure reduced? Can the child take creative risks without the fear of admonishment from the coach?

• Decision Making. Are there opportunities for the players to make decisions? Decisions may be spatial (where to run or pass), temporal (when do I pass or run), or kinesthetic (how do I handle the ball)? These need to be present in all activities for learning to occur.

• Implications for the Game. The activities presented in a training session must in some way reflect the demands a player faces in the game. The younger

the player the less clear this may seem, while the older the player (i.e. 10 or older), the more clear it will become. However, the implications for the game

are even more important for the younger players. The coach at this level is providing the foundational movement and thinking skills that will enable the

player to later solve more complex problems.

Eliminating lines, laps and lectures This was to be included as a principle of coaching, but we decided that its importance warranted its placement here: Eliminating lines, laps and lectures means:

a) running laps is a big part of soccer. All practice activities should take place on the field, preferably with a ball.

b) lectures should be left for the classroom. Children come to practice to be active and participate, not to be talked to for extended periods of time. Often, coaches design activities that focus on determining a winner. These activities typically involve elements that lead to players being eliminated from

the activity. Those eliminated first are players who usually need the most work on technique and decision-making. Design activities that keep all players

engaged throughout the length of the activity. Eliminate elimination games!!

Rules of the Game & Field Size Range by U Bracket Rules of the game will be utilized from the Us Youth Soccer Program (UsYouthSoccer.org) and Ohio South Youth Soccer Association (osysa.com) as well as any rules obtained from the referee Training site utilized by OSYSA (ossrc.com). The “directors” of each league will meet prior to season and discuss any changes they feel need to be implemented based on the updates to the rules from these too entities. New documents will be provided to coaches as well as the message board at the field will be updated with information. Parents will also be able to view information online through these sites as well.

Curriculum available for Coaches/Parents Soccer for Dummies book; Coaching Soccer – DVD; Training DVD’s by division as well as referee DVD

Handling parent concerns - How concerns will be handled by all. Listen, Respond, Stay Calm, Consider, Be firm, Discuss privately, and Prevent

Coaches, if you do not feel comfortable handling a concern, please reach out to Bryan Seymour 740-244-1989. Provide him with parent’s name and number so he can contact them. Bryan does want to know about all concerns even if you were able to address them. On occasion the issue may need to be addressed with the entire league. The goal is to always evaluate a concern, improve the parent/player experience and address any concern in a timely manner as long as it has been given to us and we are aware of it. Parents, please address any concerns you may have with your coach or any of the coaches. If the coach is not sure how to handle the situation he/she will reach out to Bryan. Or if you do not feel comfortable reaching out to your coach due to the nature of your concern, please contact Bryan @ 740-244-1989 (via-text or call). Exceptions to this – Contact Bryan Seymour:

• Issue not be addressed by coach in a timely manner

• Bullying by coach/players

• Personal issue you do not feel comfortable discussing with the coach and would like to discuss with Bryan We want the soccer program to be successful and fun for both parents and players. We strive to address concerns in a timely manner. There may be times that the concern will have to be discussed with the Board. Bryan and the coaches will keep you posted as to where your concern stands if it is not resolved quickly. Please do not hesitate to share a concern, usually if you are worried there are others worried too who may be afraid to bring something to our attention. If we do not know about it we cannot fix the issue. Revisions as of December 2016 Rain and temperatures for practice and play—Coaches discretion, however, it has been advised by Bryan Seymour that eh would like practices not to take place if temperature is below 54 degrees for *u4/u5/u6/u7/u8/9/10. For u11/u12/Middle School & High School below 44 degrees. It was decided at November Committee meeting we would not play in the rain if it had been raining all day (steady/down pour rain). We want the kids and parents to enjoy soccer not to get sick. If there are heavy rains that day before or the day of games or practice we would prefer that fields are checked first before committing to either practice of games. If the parking are is a muddy mess no one is to park and all must walk from the school parking lot to the fields.

7

This area should tell you that the fields are probably not good to play on either. Playing in the sprinkles or mild rain is permitted as long as it is not 54 degrees or below. Bryan or Tina will reach out to someone who lives in Cardington to get an accurate account of the weather in town since we know there is a possibility of it raining where we are but not necessarily at the fields, the information will be passed on or posted to the Cardington Soccer League Facebook Page as well as on the website. We do not under any circumstance play in storms (thunder is usually followed by lightning). Games are suspended for 30 minutes if a storm pops up during a game.
