Q: What is different this Indoor 2008-09 Season for the U18 Division?

- There will be two levels of competition offered: Premier and Division II ¡V both divisions will have playoffs and standings and SSA Provincial Competitions may be offered if the province receives enough entries.
- There are no tryouts but if you feel you have joined the wrong division after the season has started you can transfer to another division team.
Q: What are the differences between joining youth or adult soccer?
- To join youth soccer you can submit a team, a couple players, or an individual player whereas with adult soccer you need to submit an entire team and individuals without a team are placed on a waiting list.
- The reason youth soccer fees are higher is because of the amount of zone support your team receives such as coach/manager support, uniforms, soccer balls, first aid kit and other equipment. Adult soccer does not provide uniforms or equipment for your team.
Q: How do I register an entire team?
- A complete list of players expected to be on the team must be submitted by the team contact or coach/manager at the time of registration.
- Separate registration form for each player must be filled out, payments attached from all players.
- Teams wishing to have less than 14 players on their roster must pay a minimum of $3472 plus $82 per player ($16 SSA Registration & $66 Zone). This will ensure that SYSI does not put random players on your team to fill your roster to 14 players.
- Teams with a lower roster than 14 players and are willing to have extra players placed on their team by SYSI just pay $330 per player.
- All other teams with 14 players or more pay $330 per player regardless of roster size.
