Team Formation – Teams are formed after sign-ups are completed with the goal of having as equal teams as possible. Neighborhood, school, and car pooling are considered secondary. There are no tryouts or evaluations. Micro registration starts September 1st and closes November 30th. Teams fill up early and are filled on a first come, first serve basis. Team formation is usually by gender and age groupings (U8/U9/U10 and U11/U12) but is dependent on the total number and type of registrations received. All parents will attend the Micro parent meeting in early February to receive their rosters, organize their team volunteers, and learn about Micro. U11 players who try out for a competitive traveling team and do not make a competitive team will automatically be put on a Micro team and their fees credited toward Micro Magic.
Practice and Game Commitment – From late March to the end of May, teams will practice twice per week with their coach and attend a technical session once per week, if available. They will play two games per week on Saturdays during April and May. They will also play in the Stockman Bank/Magic City Soccer Classic tournament that is scheduled Saturday and Sunday on the last weekend in April. There are no other outside tournaments. League travel, if any, will be limited to about two hours travel time, i.e. Miles City, Laurel, etc.
Coaches – Parent coaches are selected by the Director of Coaching and are required to complete a youth soccer coaching course. The course, days, and times will be posted on the club Website and is paid for and conducted by Magic City Soccer Club. Coaches are NOT paid but are reimbursed for travel expenses to out-of-town games.
Team Volunteers - Each team is required to have a coach, assistant coach, team manager, field person, office helper, volunteer hours tracker, and a Classic tournament helper. All of these positions require a time commitment for job completion during the season. Each team is also required to sell one page worth of ads for the Classic tournament program. Each team is encouraged to provide at least one certified referee. Referee certification is offered by the club for a fee. Upon successful completion of the referee course, certified referees can earn money from the games that they ref. Parents who commit to be a referee are responsible for attending the certification clinic and refereeing a few Micro games. Teams without all volunteer positions filled may not be scheduled for season play and disbanded. Teams scheduled in the league but lacking in the proper conduct of the volunteer positions may not be scheduled in the Classic tournament and/or may be removed from the league schedule.
Playing Time – Each player must play at least 50% of each game. This is subject to the coach’s evaluation of injury, preparation of player, and behavior of the player.
Financial Commitment and Other Expectations - Player registration for 2011 will be $170. Rosters are distributed at the parent meeting in February). The cost includes the uniform (two jerseys, shorts and socks). Players who register after November 30th will be charged a late fee of $25 and put on a wait list. All spring league registration is online. Help with registration is available at the Magic City Soccer Club office at 2222 Broadwater Avenue, Suite 101.
All Micro families are expected to volunteer for at least 5 hours for their player’s team or forfeit their $50 volunteer check. Volunteer checks are collected by the team volunteer hours tracker in March who will turn them in to the office. Do not mail these checks to the office.
All Micro teams are responsible for ads in the Magic City Classic tournament handbook. This money is collected by teams from interested vendors in early March and goes into the general fund to help offset player fees.
All fees are nonrefundable and nontransferable. No bill will be mailed. Payment is made online with credit or debit card. Fees paid toward one child who later drops the club may not be transferred to another sibling. Families are responsible for contacting the office in a timely manner if there is any question of a player balance or if financial aid is needed.
