Administration and Communication Background check process Mandatory SUSD head injury education Notify your players now that they are on a team. Reduces the number of anxious phone calls and Emails. You don t need your plan fully developed, just make contact quickly!

Parents need to request refunds in writing per our web site: USMail or Email to treasurer@scottsdalesoccer.comcom
Administration and Communication (cont.) Player adds are controlled by the Club as there is a Wait List that is being managed. Check your Email often as Club-initiated player adds / drops are managed via Email. The official rosters are used for on-field game check-in by the referees so the lists need to be accurate. Also used for trophy planning and other club-wide notifications.
