2021 Soccer Program Update
Due to COVID, soccer was on hold until June this past spring. Once programs were allowed to open, teams ran a skill-building season (no games) in June. On July 1 a more usual outdoor program began through August. Unfortunately, this was not anticipated during spring registration so families, again, had to consider their summer plans and upgrade to a full fee if they wished to continue. We ran a program with 11 teams, 216 players and 55 team officials (coaches, assistant coaches and managers) with both the spring and summer season. Contact tracing, health checks and COVID were held and most of these teams have now wrapped up their season. We have finished the season with a small profit.
I wish to express my heartfelt gratitude to all those who stepped up to be team officials. It was more challenging in summer due to player and team official travel schedules and changing provincial/Alberta Soccer protocols. Special thanks to Mike Chow, and Ray Helgeson who support our soccer program by coordinating uniforms and equipment. Matt and Ashley's No Frills generously donated funds for U5 t-shirts and masks – thank you.
It was wonderful to see the kids playing again, and to have social time on the sidelines with players and families.
SWEMSA Community and Sting indoor soccer program is taking registrations until Sept 16. Outdoor planning will begin in January with on time registration in February 2022 (I hope!).If you have any questions or comments regarding soccer please email Tara Wren at soccerinfo@greenfieldcommunityleague.com. If you have any interest to volunteer with our outdoor soccer program, please let me know as well.
