Effective July 31st, in the event Recreational Fall Leagues are cancelled by a governing youth soccer authority,* Southside Soccer Club will issue refunds in the case of request by participant or league cancellation as follows:

Prior to date of first practice** (TBD): 95% refund. 

After date of first practice (TBD): 50% refund.

1 Week Prior to First Game (TBD): 25% refund.

After date of first game (TBD): No refund.

*Neither these dates nor youth soccer leagues are affected by the decisions or policies issued by Tigard-Tualatin School District, Oregon School Activities Association, Oregon Department of Education, or any other school-affiliated governing body or district. 

To review the guidance we receive and implement from our governing body, Oregon Youth Soccer Association, please see Oregon Youth Soccer Association COVID-19 Information.

Southside Soccer Club/Tigard Youth Soccer will inform Fall Rec registrants 2 weeks prior to the first practice to allow a grace period for families to consider their options before moving forward. The dates of the first team to practice and game will mark the official Reduction Dates. **We will NOT schedule the first date of practice until we receive clear indication from OYSA and Tualatin Hills Junior Soccer League that they are confident that Recreational Fall League will be played.**

We are confident in the execution of our Return to Play plan and are currently training with our Competitive teams. We are starting our Developmental teams on August 24th and plan to adopt this plan on a larger scale to the recreational program with the help of our volunteer coaches. Interested volunteers should sign up to coach or contact our Director of Recreation, Trevor Owens as soon as possible.

 

What can you do to help Tigard Youth Soccer have a Fall 2020 Season?
1. Follow State and City guidelines regarding social distancing and face coverings.
As of July 15, face coverings are also required in outdoor public spaces (ie. Cook Park) when physical distancing is not possible. For the most up to date information please visit https://govstatus.egov.com/OR-OHA-COVID-19.

2. Wash/Sanitize Hands and Soccer Gear before and after each use.
Keep PPE on hand for personal use and teach kids to do the same. 

3. Help get Oregon into Phase 2! 
Following the guidelines, staying safe and healthy, and getting case numbers down will help ensure our community can move forward and get kids playing again.
