It’s that time football fans! August is approaching fast and that means FOOTBALL AND CHEERLEADING! The GCYSA is excited to welcome back children to for the 2010 Football and Cheerleading season. As many of you know, The GCYSA has 2 new member parks this season, the Perdido Bay Buccaneers and the Jay Royals.
The Certification process will be remaining nearly the same as in the past. The change will be that the Alliance certifiers will come to each park once to update ID pictures of all Mites and to certify all new children each park. Make-up or late certification will be held on the Mondays prior to weeks 1, 2, & 3. There will be a $10 fee for late certification so parents are urged to have their children at their parks certification night.
For coaches & team moms, we will no longer utilize the method of faxing rosters in to the league each week. All rosters will be emailed to a common email address. The process for this will be laid out step by step for you at the coaches clinics and here on the website.
Please check the GCYSA Calendar for important dates for the upcoming season.
