Equipment
It is mandatory that your player wear shin guards and soccer cleats to play soccer. Please ensure that you have them with you each week – as your player will not be allowed to participate if they do not have them. The RFC provides each registered player with a full soccer uniform to keep that consists of a team jersey, shorts and socks.
Jewelry
For any player with piercings – their jewelry MUST be removed each week prior to practices and games. This includes earrings. Activity Trackers or ‘Fit Bits’ may not be worn. All jewelry, with the exception of medical alert bracelets and necklaces is prohibited.
Weather Policy
Soccer is played rain or shine. The only time soccer is cancelled is if there is lightening/thunderstorms. Please contact your coach regarding cancellations or check www.esl.e2esoccer.com . When faced with severe heat alerts, our Coaches will have the players take more frequent breaks to ensure that they stay properly hydrated. Please always make sure your player has water at the fields.
Medical Form
All players must have a completed medical form on record.
Practices and Games
Please remember that if your player cannot attend a practice to notify your coach in advance. Our coaches spend time planning their training sessions and it helps them to know if a player will not be attending. Up to date Game info is available at www.esl.e2esoccer.com .
Photo Day
Photo Day is in June. A schedule will be circulated the first week. Please note there will be no retakes or rescheduled dates if your player is not able to attend. Each registered child who attends photo day receives one free team and one free individual photo.
