If you missed Trophy Day e-mail me with name and grade your child played in and we'll figure out how to get the trophy to you.

Thank you again to our volunteer coaches and helpers of all ages!
It is really  much appreciated and does more than just complaining!

We couldn't do things without you!


In the spring Kindergarten and very young 1st graders  will be part of Bambini Soccer again starting 4/14.

5/6/7 grade

Due to only 7 players signing up in 7th grade, we added them to 5/6 grade

ALL SESSIONS AT THE  HIGH SCHOOL!

You cannot register online if:

You do NOT have a Visa or a Mastercard!

Most common registration errors:

Birthday field.
While an example is given as XX/XX/XXXX, it has some people perplexxxxxed, so in real numbers you MUST enter the birthdate as  08/25/2000 including the slashes!!!

All fields must be filled in and if something does not apply enter: NONE

For those who cannot register online send me an e-mail to make different arrangements:
Do NOT click next (That is the Visa/Mastercard screen)

Instead, print the screen and the liability info and send a copy with a "Money Order" - (no checks accepted!)

New Paltz Soccer
PO Box 2250
Newburgh NY 12550-0605   (yes, Newburgh, don't out think us:-)

Since you will not be on any list, please bring the registration to the field!

>REGISTER NOW<

Here is some older info from anno domini, but it always applies each year:


Every weekend lots of clothes and other belongings are left at; the fields.
Please note that the High School accumulates so many of these that they cannot gather, keep or collect these left/lost items.
They will all be disposed off.

New! We have added a coaches corner page and will be adding our league rules. Just need to find the time.

Thank you to all the coaches who stepped up (with and without arm twisting:-)It is not that difficult, if you keep it fun and next Saturday, we will talk about coaching.
For now please note:Every Saturday each grade has a 90 minute time slot. (Always the same time)
The first 30 minutes should be used for practice, run some foot skills and drills and the last 60 minutes should consist of 4 game quarters (12 minutes each with water breaks in between)
You as a coach and team can decide how many or if any at all practices during the week you want to hold.For Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd grade the once a week Saturday session is plenty of time and recommended by Youth Soccer.
For 3/4/5/6 grade we recommend one weekly practice session and Saturday's you can repeat what was practiced and catch the stragglers. Grade 7/8 should also practice once  a week.
Please remind all players that they just MUST HAVE A BALL (and bring it) We have limited supplies of extra balls.For those who noticed, we tried to get through the team building process and T-Shirt issue as fast as possible, so the kids could play.
If you just showed up without registering after having had almost 3 !! Three, did I mention THREE? months to register, please have the decency to register now and may be do a better job next year.
It is very unfair for unregistered players to get T-Shirts before registered players and we can assure you that next season we will have something in place that later registering players will have to pay extra to compensate for extra charges we incur.

(Posted September 5)Although already answered: What about the weather?Yes, there will be weather! Depending on what kind :We will play in light rain and drizzle, but not in totally unpleasant conditions.If any session is canceled it will be posted here by 8:00 h based on the hourly weather forecast at weather.com
It is possible that sessions may be canceled in the morning but later sessions are on or viceversa.
