CLUB MARIN Mission Provide a soccer program with multiple levels of participation based upon standards of play available in state and district league competition. Club Marin Soccer will provide opportunities for player participation through team formation and administration at each level of league competition according to a player's motivation and capability. Our goals are to: 1) promote the game of soccer, with an emphasis on acquisition of soccer skills to enable realization of a player's personal goals in the game, and 2) present a higher standard of soccer for those players and families willing to make a higher level of commitment. The Club will set standards of training excellence, provide guidance, encouragement and support of player development methods at all levels. In addition, the Club will provide opportunities and guidance to those athletes who strive for further participation on state, regional or national Olympic Development teams, collegiate and/or professional programs. At the same time giving them a safe nurturing environment for them to grow not only as an athlete but as individual within society. TEAM FINANCING Club teams are expected to be self-supporting. Club teams will be responsible for team fees to cover the cost of scheduling, referees and other administrative expenses. The costs of uniforms, practice equipment and tournament entry fees are the responsibility of the Club teams. Club teams are allowed to solicit contributions for sponsorships from appropriate outside organizations. The Club Director shall approve sponsors and placement of sponsors' logos. REPORTING GAME SCORES Each Club team will follow the current rules regarding the reporting of game scores per their league. Each team is also responsible for reporting all regular season and tournament game scores to the newspaper by appointing one representative (coach or parent) to call in game scores. COACHES Coaches are encouraged to provide playing time
for all players in each game and to foster an environment where
all players feel like an integral part of the team. They must
also strive to assure harmony of the coaching staff, players and
parents through open communication, fair and just treatment of
players, and consideration of individual player needs within a
team context. |
