Our players and their families’ health and safety come first; their physical and mental health are of utmost importance to us. Getting our kids outside, in fresh air and playing soccer safely is our goal.
FC Sarasota must follow specific guidelines provided in these protocols from state and local health departments in addition to utilizing those recommendations we must follow our own governing bodies USSA, FYSA, US Soccer as well as Sarasota Parks and Recreation.
Everyone must take additional steps to help ensure members have a safe training and playing environment. Please remember that as we receive further directions from the relevant authorities, certain guidelines may be lifted but be aware there may be even stricter regulations passed down.
We ask you to KNOW YOUR ROLE! KNOW THE PROTOCOLS. The following best practices are intended to offer guidance to our Youth Soccer community. Adherence to these considerations and recommendations are vital to ensure a safe environment for our players.
We appreciate everyone support in this difficult time and hope we can get back to a normal as soon as possible.
