2008 Outdoor Season Registration

Wednesday, April 9 — 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM

If you have a soccer team interested in playing in the GKSSA’s outdoor season year, come to the Portsmouth Olympic Harbour Press Lounge on Wednesday, April 9th at 7 PM.

All teams must provide a deposit of $1,200 at the April 9th meeting.

Note that the team fees this year have risen since last year, mostly due to an increase in each player’s contribution to the field fund. For many years it has been only $5 per player per year. At our AGM in November it was voted up to $25 per player per year. The estimate for this year’s team fees is between $2,600 and $2,700.

The team sheets you pick up at the registration meeting must be returned to GKSSA Registrar Maureen Sakell by May 5th.

C4 (Beginner) Referee Clinic: May 24th and 25th

If you’re new to refereeing but would like to start, here’s your chance! SOSA will be running a two-day C4 Referee clinic on May 24th and 25th (from 9AM - 4PM each day).

To register, or for more information, e-mail Joanie: , or call 613-546-6632.
