****Multiple Player Discount Code for 2023 season:  FAMILYDISCOUNT.   2022 code of Familydiscount10 is no longer active.
We will try our best to roster siblings of the same gender on the same team if their ages fit into our age matrix.  Our league has the following age groups:  U6 (under 6 co-ed), U8 (under 8) boys and girls, U10 (under 10)boys and girls, (U12) boys and girls,  and U15 (under 15)boys and girls.  Example:  Your child was born July 4th, 2017 the player has a birthday during our season year of 2023.  Therefore the player would be placed on a U8 (under 8) team.  If any of the age matrix is confusing, please call the league phone.  (707)496-0770.  We have 3 Recreational Coordinators this season.  If you have any concerns, please reach out to one of them.

To all of our ERVYSL members and families:
It is your responsibility to know, understand, and follow your county and local authorities guidelines and rules.
 
Eel River Valley Youth Soccer holds no authority over your personal choices, decisions, or actions.

We do require coaches of all of our teams to follow local health department rules and to notify us (ERVYSL Board of Directors)upon any contraction or suspicion of exposure to any contagious illness. The BOD will notify all team members of the coach in question.
We expect and encourage all of our BOD members, coaches, volunteers, players, referees, and extended family members to choose to and practice SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY! We ask that everyone who attends practices and games to maintain social distancing, observe cleanliness, and hand washing protocol. Do RIGHT by your neighbor!! Stay home if you are ill or feeling ill.
 

2023-2024REGISTRATION FEES:
Recreational:  $120 
D3 Competition/Tournament player: Contact your team's coach or ERVYSL's D3 coordinator
Second, Third, etc., sibling player from the same household: $110 

**Registration fees include a team uniform (jersey, shorts, and socks). **. Your child will need soccer regulation cleats. For safety reasons, baseball and football cleats are not allowed in ERVYSL practice or play.  The referee may excuse your child if they are not wearing proper safety gear.   Shin guards are required for all ERVYSL players (games and practices).

****REFUND POLICY*****
ERVYSL will refund $50 of our TBD registration fee if we are notified BEFORE we roster teams in mid June for (2) circumstances: 1) Registered players who have a valid medical issue that prevents that players ability to play soccer for more than 1/2 of our regular season. 2) The registered player and family are moving out of the area and notify the league before teams are rostered.
NO REFUND ($0) WILL BE ISSUED for any reason after teams have been rostered in June, unless we cannot provide the registered player a place to play soccer. At the point of rostering, ERVYSL has paid a non-refundable fee to CalNorth, banking fees, purchased uniforms, paid for field space and maintenance, and collectively put all volunteer efforts into creating a great soccer enviornment for each of our members to play soccer. All it takes is one player to force an entire rearrangement of all the teams in one age group and for ERVYSL to incur unnecessary costs. $0 refund for practices and games canceled due to the weather, Covid 19, or any community state of emergency, pandemic, etc.

Most games are played on Saturday's with some older age groups possibly playing weeknight of Sunday games. Some teams and age groups may play games at different field locations. (Hiller Park in McKinleyville and Redway Elementary School). Practice schedules are up to the coaches, first come first choice, and will be determined at the beginning of the season.

***Thank you for your patience. We are a volunteer group and try our best to accommodate our large player turnout. Please call our league phone number with any questions or concerns!
