Philosophy: The NYSL is a recreational, non-profit, volunteer organization that promotes the introduction of soccer to children ages 5 to 19 in the Nashua area. Children with birthdates from 10/1/1989 through 9/30/2003 are eligable for the Fall 2008/Spring 2009 season. All children interested in playing soccer are encouraged to join regardless of experience or skill.
Enrollment: Before any child is permitted to play, a registration form must be completed, signed and returned along with a check to the above listed address on or before July 31, 2008. Due to limitations of playing fields and volunteers, players are accepted on a "first come, first served" basis. Late registrants will be "wait listed" and will be assigned teams only if space permits. Once all forms are processed, coaches obtained and fields assigned, you will receive a call notifying you of your child's assigned team, coach, practice times, etc. However, do not expect a call until approximately the first week in September..
Playing Equipment: All players are required to wear the NYSL uniform, which consists of a green and yellow reversible jersey and matching socks, during games. Uniform purchases are made through the league only and provisions are available on the registration form. In addition to the uniform, other mandatory equipment includes shin guards, mouth guards for all players with any orthodonture and safety straps for eyeglasses. Cleats are recommended but are not mandatory.

This is the NHSA (New Hampshire Soccer Association) code of ethics for parents. Though your youngster is under the supervisory guidance of fine coaches during soccer practices and games, the most important people in their life are still you, their parents. We'd like to pass on a few tips, which will make soccer more enjoyable for everyone involved.

Just as you've earned your youngster's respect through your personal discipline and sense of responsibility at home, teach your child to respect the officials of the game and his/her teammates. You can best do this by not openly criticizing the decisions of officials, accepting them as part of the give-and-take of life. A child soon loses admiration for a coach or an official if his/her parents feel they discriminate against him/her.

Remember the coaches and referees are volunteers. They give significant amounts of time so your child can develop and play. Treat them with respect even when you don't agree.

Come to the games with your youngster and encourage him/her and their teammates. It means a lot to a youngster when Mom and Dad are "out there" watching.

Applaud good effort by the players and let the coach point out mistakes.

Since you do not condone loud or abusive language and gestures at home, do not tolerate such things during a game. Remember a child imitates, sometimes without thinking. If you tolerate abusive language towards soccer officials or players, you may well form a child who abuses others later.

Never tolerate or laugh at an intentional bad play. If you do, you disrupt the discipline our coaches try to instill in players.

Don't forget that a soccer game is a form of recreation, not a life and death struggle. Keep a reign on your emotions regardless of who wins or loses.

Do not criticize a player while on the field. Do you like to hear disparaging remarks about your child while you sit in the stands?

Your vote of confidence in the character and abilities of our coaches - even if you think you know more about running the team than our volunteers do - is also a vote of confidence in your youngster.

Provide transportation to and from all practices and games ensuring that the player is prompt not only in arriving but in his/her departure.

Allow your child to be a child.
