Coaches Corner

Coaches check out the linked sites in the left margin of this web page - the Soccer Club site has some great drills that may help your team.

  Developmental Soccer

Many of you have noticed the dirt "holes"in the middle of the fields. GCYSA purchased sod to fill these holes, please help keep the fields in good shape. These are caused by the players dragging their spikes on the turf. Please encourage the children not to dig up the holes.

Parents and coaches, please remember to pick up your trash after your post game treats are distributed. Let's leave a clean field for the next game.
