2011 Season - VOLUNTEER HOURS

If you did not fulfill your volunteer obligation during the 2011 season, you will be required to pay for last year's volunteer hours that are outstanding when you register for spring 2012 soccer .  If you do not, your child may practice but will not be allowed to play in any games until you have taken care of last year's obligation.

When registering for the New Ulm Youth Soccer program you agree to either work a certain number of hours or pay $10 per hour required to work.  Please take care of your past due obligation promptly.  Thank you!

NUAYSA is a parent-run, volunteer organization. The parents of all children in the program are expected to make a strong commitment to the program, and to serve a specified number of volunteer hours.

If you believe you will not be able to serve part or all or your assigned volunteer hours, you are encouraged to pay the “buy-out” fee for those hours in advance of the season.

Receiving these buy-out payments in advance will allow the NUAYSA board to hire paid assistance for some of the required tasks, thus insuring a well-run soccer program.

For the safety of all our players, NUAYSA has voted to adopt MYSA's concussion policy. 

Please see the files below for more information.

It is recommended but not required that all parents take training on this topic. More information about these training sessions is available here.

• Stress fair and sensible play with your child.
• Stress the importance of teamwork.
• Applaud good plays by both teams.
• Your job as parent is to cheer on your child, the coach's job is to coach them, and the referee's job is to ref. Respect others and let them do their job.
• Respect the coach’s decisions and abilities.
• The sidelines are not a place to shout personal instructions to your child.
• Don’t force your child to decide whether to listen to you or to the coach.
• Remember that coaches and administrators are volunteers.
• A “thank you” every once in a while to coaches is welcomed.
• Accept the decisions of the officials with good grace.
• Take time to learn the rules of the game.
• Never lose sight of the fact that you as a parent are your child's greatest role model!
