2021 Outdoor Soccer Registration begins March 15
Greenfield Community League and SW STING partner to run an outdoor recreational soccer program for kids aged 4 to 18 as part of Edmonton Minor Soccer Association South West (SWEMSA). Community soccer runs Tiers 4-9 and SW STING runs club level soccer Tiers 1-3 based on tryout and results (with option of return to community program if the player is unsuccessful in tryout). The regular season runs from the first week of May (provided the fields are open by the city of Edmonton) until the end of June, with post season play into July. At this time, the program will be based on current public health guidelines and likely look similar to 2020 which means modified format within a player bubble. All players and volunteers will be required to complete prescreening before each activity (game or practice).
Please review registration processes carefully as they have changed from previous years:

- Please read the following understanding we work very hard to accommodate all registrations and possible transfers to communities, friend and coach requests; as well are working within public health guidelines
- Requests for transfer to another community or up in age are considered only after placement of all on time, of age children in both communities. Transfer or age bump are also considered based on first come first serve
- Our team formation policy is found here: https://emsasouthwest.com/play/programs-benefits/indoor/
- We will be unable to do team photos for the 2021 season
- Refunds will be considered if play is cancelled/delayed or altered based on public health updates
- If public health restrictions are lifted and the opportunity to resume regularly scheduled games/format an upgrade fee will be requested to cover additional program costs (refs). Families will be contacted directly if this is required. The fee structure below indicates both fees.
Please review registration processes carefully as they have changed from previous years:
- Please create a household account and complete your child’s online registration in the EMSA portal at https://emsasoccerportal.com/ui/?. Payment online by credit card or bank card visa debit is strongly encouraged, and is safest to accommodate distancing.
- You are required to submit payment and a deposit for uniform for $200 dated June 30, 2021 payable to Greenfield Community League
- You are also required to provide proof of community league registration and address each year, and birthdate if you are a new registrant. These can be uploaded into registration, emailed to Tara or dropped to her directly by request.
- If paying by alternate methods to online, a cheque may be provided payable to SWEMSA (previously GCL) dated prior to March 31, 2021 by request to Tara.
- A $50 late fee will be added after April 15, 2021.
Coordinator role
After 6 years I will be stepping down from the role of soccer Coordinator for Greenfield community after this 2021 season. I am seeking a replacement and if you are interested I’d welcome to work together this season as a learning opportunity. I have enjoyed the role very much and I have loved watching the kids grow and develop in the sport, the opportunities to engage with others in both Greenfield and the soccer community.

Volunteers
For this season, we are unable to mandate volunteers to run the program but we do require coaches/assistant coaches and managers for teams to be formed in our community. A current Police information check is required and can be completed online. Training for safe COVID practice play will be provided. |
