Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can I request my child play with a friend?
May request friend for child to play with. However, we have no way of knowing how many children will register and coaches we will have for team formations so this is NOT GUARANTEED. Please email soccer@earca.ca prior to registration end date to be considered.
My child is small/inexperienced. Can they play down a level?
No. Unfortunately, this is not permitted by Saskatoon Youth Soccer. Note that U5-U9 is considered non-competitive. Scores are not kept during games.
Can I register for U7/U9 Developmental League through EARCA?
Registration for the Developmental League is through the Hollandia zone. Please see Hollandia Soccer Club and www.saskatoonyouthsoccer.ca.
Players can not belong to more than one team during a season. No refunds will be issued by EARCA for those that register their child in both leagues.
Will U7/U9 be co-ed or boys/girls team only?
This is dependent on the number of players registered. Co-ed teams will be made if there are not enough players to make separate teams. Soccer coordinators communicate with other community associations to determine if trading some players allows to create teams.
What equipment do players need?
Running shoes and comfortable clothes are fine. Shin guards are recommended for U5-U9. If shin guards are worn they must be covered in order to prevent injury to other players. Most older players wear cleats. Team shirts and soccer balls are provided.
Can I coach? What training do I need to coach?
Yes! We are always in need of coaches. If there are no volunteers for coaching for teams, we will refund your money and children will be unable to play. Coach certification requirements and clinic dates are on the Saskatoon Youth Soccer Website.
If I volunteer to coach, does EARCA reimburse me for the courses required?
Yes, you will be fully refunded for the required courses.
Is there an in-person registration night?
No.
Do I need to purchase a new membership?
You will need a current community association membership to play soccer. Memberships are valid from July 1st to June 30th and are purchased via CommuniBee at the time of registration.
Can I register late?
If there is room on a team after March 15 you may be able to register late by emailing the soccer coordinator. Late registrations are subject to a $40 fee.
Why is registration so early?
Saskatoon Youth Soccer requires teams to be formed by the middle of March.
Are spots limited?
No. If we do not get enough coaches to volunteer, some players may be refunded and unable to play.
How do I get a membership card?
No physical cards are given. A virtual card can be brought up on the CommuniBee app (the credit card looking menu item at the top of the screen).
How can I pay for soccer?
Via CommuniBee with Visa, MasterCard or American Express.
Can I get a refund?
There will be no refunds issued after registration.
When will I get team information?
Your coach will email you mid-April. If you do not receive an email by April 20, please email the soccer coordinator.
Who do I contact if I still have questions?
Please email the EARCA Soccer Coordinator for any additional information.
