| MYSL Newsletter Update Hello Coaches, Game day schedules are now final for all brackets. In the last week we have unfortunately had to make several changes due to teams dropping out, or substantially changing. This creates a trickle down effect that likely affected your schedule. On behalf of those teams, our apologies. Please recheck your schedule NOW. Scheduling is challenging for a league of this size and diversity. Unavailable dates were requested and the software takes them into account when possible. However you may have a match scheduled on a date you listed as unavailable, as it is not a guarantee but an attempt to optimize. Clubs in the northern part of Coast Section tend to have Sunday fields; Clubs in the southern portion tend to have Saturday fields. Games have been scheduled on the CYSA tournament weekends as the majority of teams do not play in tournaments both weekends. Reschedule requests to accommodate tournament play on those weekends must be honored. Game Scheduling Home team has the technical capability to change the date, time and field of their home matches. DO NOT change the date without the concurrence of your opponent in writing (email). Do have the time and field posted at least 7 days before the match date. This flexibility is designed to allow teams to cooperate and find the best dates and times to have their match. All changes are tracked and abuse is very easy to detect. You can see your list of matches in the TeamStaff:MyTeam-Matches segment after you log on to CCSLCoast.org. Please follow the instructions provided by your home field scheduler to get fields and times assigned. Don’t try to do Home / Away switches. Just tell the other team what time and field to use, the away team will be the “home” team in the database. Home team in the database is responsible for referee fees and field use fees. Communicate and work it out. Reschedules Teams can request a date change from their opponent. The opponent MUST AGREE to a date change if the reason is related to: 1) Tournament (D2Cup, or a tournament on the last weekend of the month, Sept 24/25 and Oct 29/30) If you can’t agree on a date, the CCSL Coast will ask the home team for three time slots over at least two days which do not conflict with an already scheduled match of the opponent. The opponent will have 24 hours to select one of the time slots. Opponents are not required to, but may agree to, a date change if the reason is related to school trips, coach conflicts, player illness or absence, baseball, NorCal matches, other tournaments on other than the last weekend, vacations or similar reasons. Forfeits CCSL has established a firm forfeit procedure, travel is not a valid reason to not play a game. The CCSL Coast Section will establish if a team has forfeited: Only the CCSL Coast Section can declare a forfeit. Teams cannot agree to a forfeit. Referees cannot award a forfeit. 1) Any team that forfeits a match will be assessed an $85.00 fine. Payments of these fines will be the responsibility of the League of Registration. If a match does not get played, CCSL Coast decides whether the match is a forfeit or a double forfeit. One team may get no points, both teams get no points or both teams lose points. The CCSL Coast, in it’s sole discretion, will make these decisions. Additional communications will follow on rosters, guest players. game day processes etc. In the meantime please remember that the purpose of a soccer league is to allow children to play games. Do what you can to make it a good experience for them. Best Regards, Sandra Todd Thank you all very much, Thank you, Guzman MYSL / Guzman Important Email Addresses |
