Frequently Asked Questions
Can my child play on the same team as a sibling?
Teams are divided by age. Please complete the siblings portion of the registration form by listing full name and age of each sibling playing. Every effort will be made to have them playing on the same night and if eligible on the same team.
Can I register after the deadline?
Once the teams are created, the additional spots to fill the league roster will be filled on a first-come-first-serve basis. Once those spots are filled, we will not accommodate any more registrations. Therefore, available spots after the deadline will vary by age division. For instance, at the close of registration, if the U6 league can hold 100 children and 96 have signed up, the first 4 who try to register after the deadline will be admitted into the league. After that, the U6 league would be closed.
Can I volunteer?
YES!!! We are a volunteer-run league, so volunteers are always welcome. We are always needing more volunteers as coaches, referees, and concession stand workers. If you are a member of Seymour FBC, you may also volunteer as a team encourager or to share game-day devotions. All volunteers must be able to pass a background check. To volunteer, please email mvp@seymourfbc.org.
What age does my child need to be to play?
Children must be 4 years old before March 25, 2023 to play in the Spring 23 league. We are sorry, but no exceptions can be made.
What does my child need to wear for practices and games?
Uniforms are mandatory for game days. Uniforms are $40 and include 2 jerseys, shorts and socks. Our uniforms are worn for several consecutive seasons. For practice, please dress your child(ren) in a weather appropriate outfit that they can comfortably run/perform drills in. SHIN GUARDS ARE REQUIRED FOR ALL GAMES AND PRACTICES. Cleats are recommended, but not required.
What if there is a certain night my child cannot practice?
When you register, there is an option to choose any night that you are unavailable to practice.
When are practices?
Each team will price once night a week (weather/schedule permitting). Prices are held Monday, Tuesday, and Thursdays at or after 5:30 PM. You will receive your team’s scheduled practice time via email after the coaches meeting. (This is usually the weekend prior to practices beginning.)
When/How will I know what team my child(ren) is on?
Team placements will be released after the season’s coaches meeting (usually the weekend before practices begin). You should be notified of your team and practice night via the email address you provide during registration. Please check your SPAM email if you do not receive an email the weekend prior to practice.
