Travel Teams:  Paperwork, Continued!

 To ALL Players:

 If you missed the paperwork sessions last week, kindly contact us immediately to take care of all the administrative tasks needed to begin the season ~ admin@farpostsoccerclub.com or call Paulette at 872-8860, ext. 200.  All players must have their travel team paperwork completed before they can participate in Futsal and begin indoor training.

 Also, if you haven't established your family account in our new registration system ~ Blue Sombrero ~ please do so right away.  If you're not familiar with our new Blue Sombrero System, click here!  In a nutshell, our Blue Sombrero system will house the entire club database and will be used to register the club with the state association, will allow families to track their account balances, will allow us to send bulk emails to the entire club with a single click (a process that's currently rather time-consuming!) ~ and much more.  Please assist us by setting up your account.  Step by step guidelines to take you through the process are found below.  It's important to note that if you have already paid your deposit, do not enter any credit card information.  The instructions will remind you to click on "Check/Other" which will enable us to record your payment in the new system once you've created your account.

Go to Blue Sombrero:  http://www.bluesombrero.com/farpostsoccerclub
OR, click on the "Blue Sombrero in the upper right hand corner of the Far Post website home page!

 Once you've set up your account, your information resides on Blue Sombrero's secure system and you'll not need to re-enter everything each time you sign up for a Far Post program!  Please take care of this immediately so we can get the club registered.  Thanks to everyone for your patience and understanding during this exciting conversion.

 A very special note of thanks and gratitude to our Paperwork Session Volunteer Team!  We are truly appreciative of all their efforts collating forms, greeting club families, handing out forms, picture-taking, responding to questions, folding (and re-folding) uniforms and gear, setting up and tearing down ~ all with great smiles and support for Far Post! 

 Thanks, team ...

Cathy Baker, Joe Bergeron, Hilary Besse, Tony Blake, Chris Castano, Leigh Cole, Erika Dayton, Karen Harlow, Diane Moore and Andy Seaton ...

... for your gift of time to the club last week!

Futsal Sign-ups!

 If you haven't already, all team families should be hearing from their team managers (or the club office if there is no manager) this week to determine those who are interested in participating in Futsal for Session I!  The Soccer Center officially opens on November 6 for the indoor season!  You can assist your team manager by responding immediately as this is a two-part process.  The number of interested players must be determined before the cost per player can be calculated.  All players must have their travel team paperwork completed AND their Futsal fee paid before they can participate.  Players who are not paid will not be allowed to play.

 To view the game dates for Session I, click here!  The official schedule will be posted about one week prior to the first game.  Once posted, you'll find the schedules, scores and standings by going to: www.thesoccercenter.org and clicking on the LARGE ORANGE SCHEDULES, SCORES & STANDINGS button right on the front page!  (This button will be activated once the schedules are posted.)
