COASTAL YOUTH SOCCER LEAGUE UPDATE

The CYSL meeting was recently held and attended by Jeff Craig.

Pembroke Youth Soccer submitted a request to the CYSL to allow player sharing between towns. This request came in response to the fact that we currently have 3 existing U14 Girls teams but we do not have enough players to field those teams. This was not an issue in the fall season because we were allowed to cross roster our own players however we can not cross-roster in the spring. CYSL requires that rosters be fixed and adhered to during the spring season.

CYSL has approved our request to player share with other towns as long as the rosters are fixed. Orwell was the only town that expressed interest however their requirements were as follows:

  • PYS would create two full teams with the existing players.
  • The remaining players (approximately 10) would be divided in to 2 groups of 5.
  • Each group would play on a team consisting of both Norwell and Pembroke Players.
  • One team would be a “Pembroke” Team and the other would be a “Norwell” Team.
  • This would require 5 of our players to practice in Norwell and 5 of their players to practice in Pembroke.

PYS will consider these options and make a decision before final rosters are due.

REFEREE COORDINATOR UPDATE

The referee Coordinator was not present at this meeting. No update was needed as we are not in an active season.

COACHING EDUCATION

Dawn is currently coordinating with the Pembroke HS Varsity Boys/Girls Coaches (Adam Scott and Travis Dupuis, respectively) to provide a one day training for our PYS parent coaches. We anticipate that we will use one of the Sundays booked at North Pembroke Elementary for this purpose. Date TBD.

NEW BUSINESS

Adam Scott, Pembroke HS Boys Varsity Soccer Coach would like to offer a soccer clinic over April vacation using the PYS fields at a fee that is TBD.

Next Meeting
