Re-scheduling MYSA Games
There have been some questions on how to re-schedule games.
- If game cannot be played for any reason, Home team must notify Referee Coordinator and Field Coordinators for their club.
- Coaches from both teams submit 2-3 possible dates for a rescheduled game.
- Field Coordinator notifies Home team coach about availability.
- If neither dates are available, both teams submit additional dates to check.
- If there is a field available, Home team coach confirms the date and time and field with the visiting team and Referee Coordinator.
- Home team completes the online reschedule form. An automated email is sent to both team's contact via email.
- Visiting team accepts or rejects the proposed reschedule date and time. An email is sent to both team contacts, Referee Coordinator and Field Coordinator.
- If accepted, the game is successfully rescheduled. If rejected, the process starts again from step #1.

Scrimmages at practice.
Wallet cards with players and parents names and contact info.
Laminated bag tag that reminds players what to bring to practice (water bottle, ball, shin guards, etc)
