Weather Note
Because there are so many players and parents involved, it is impossible to advise them daily on whether outdoor activities will be a “go” or “no go.” We advise parents to use their own judgment. If conditions seem too inclement for your player to be outdoors, do not send them to the planned session.
A BYS representative (coach or team manager) will normally be present at the beginning of each session to make certain no players are left by themselves.
Some coaches and team managers use Twitter to advise their players of a change in plans. You would need a Twitter account of your own to follow that coach or team manager.
Uniforms
For the 2012 season, players will receive an away jersey, short and pair of socks. Our away uniforms are navy blue and the cost is included in the registation fee. The uniforms are for the players to keep and will be used for as long as replacement styles are available. Additional uniforms can be ordered through your parent representative. Sizing will take place at parent/player/coach meeting in April.
Waiver
Waiver to Club: In consideration of your acceptance of my child as a participant in the Club. The Club, their Board of Directors, members, organizers, sponsors, coaches and persons transporting my child to and from activities, from and against any claim arising out of injury or harm to any child incidental to, connected with or arising out of Club activities. All sports have intrinsic hazards. Participation in the Club implies acceptance of some risk of injury.
Scholarships
With the help of our corporate sponsors, we have established a scholarship fund with a limited number of available scholarships to help offset fees for families that have a need.

Policies Related to Teams
Playing Up: A player rostered on a younger age team is invited to play with an older age group, contingent upon agreement by parents and both coaches. This is done on a per game basis.
Rostering Up: Players from a younger team may be asked to play on the next older level team for the season. This may occur as determined by the needs of the board and leage when an older team has insufficient numbers, and a younger team has an available number of players (greater than 17). Players may be asked based on their age.
Registration will be first come first serve: Teams will be limited to the first 18 players registered with an additional two players over the roster. A second team will be created if there is a minium of 30 players registered in the age group. U12 teams will play 8v8 with a min of 24 players needed to form two teams. U10 will play 6v6.
Team Selection: When sufficient players register where 2 or more teams may be formed at an age level, tryouts may be held or teams may be selected by the board and coaches.
Playing Time: This will be determined by practice attendance, attitude and hard work.
Contacting the Board: Coach, player and parent concerns that require board decisions need to be presented to the entire board. Concerns should be submitted in writing for board review at their next scheduled meeting.
