Fall Soccer Update for post Covid-19
Thank you for your patience as we continue to accumulate information and do our best to plan during quite uncertain times. BC Soccer has communicated that guidelines for a return to play are coming shortly. Their plans are being reviewed by our national governing body (CSA). We have been preparing behind the scenes based on return to play guidelines elsewhere and feel that this has put us in a better starting position based on what we receive from BC Soccer.
With that in mind, we are going to open up registration. Due to the uncertainty around the format for a return to play, we are asking for a deposit of $125 to secure your spot. Once we have more clarity on the specifics of each program (Fall/Winter Academy, Fall Soccer, etc), we will communicate the specifics on what those programs will be, how they will run and what the remaining cost will be. You can expect similar costs to last season depending on what we are able to offer.
One of the guidelines that we are expecting to have to account for is a reduction in the amount of people at any facility at a time. Because we have a set amount of field space, provided by the City of Delta, we foresee that we may not be able to accommodate the large numbers of players that we normally accommodate. With this in mind, we encourage you to register quickly in order to secure your spot.
Please go to THIS LINK to register.
Once again, SDU appreciates your patience and wishes everyone in our community health and safety during this very difficult time.
Kind Regards
SDU
