Practice Field Schedule On-Line System

Fall 2009

Major Changes.

Due to new CIF rules practice times at Bonita and SDHS have changed - 5:30 to 7:00 and 7:00 to 8:30.

For U10, U12, U14, and Upper Division almost all practice times are Mon/Wed or Tues/Thurs. If you need Friday practices they will be at Oak Mesa or Horsethief

 

Significant information:
Summary Instructions

  1. All U6, U7 and U8 practices will be one hour per week at Horsethief Canyon Park
  2. U10 teams will be playing 7 v. 7 this year, so to accommodate more, smaller, teams U10 teams will be using smaller practice spaces.
  3. Most U10, U12, U14, U16, and U19 practice locations can be scheduled as a single Monday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday request.
  4. Each team will be able to sign up for practice time on both a lit field and an unlit field.  Teams that want to begin the season practicing on an unlit field can reserve their lit field location when the practice scheduler opens on August 7.  Also, teams that may have field use conflicts with other sports (consult the maps) may want to have an unlit field as a backup.  Note that due to SDHS football practice the soccer fields at SDHS are not available until Sept. 2!

Additional Detail:

Welcome to the Fall 2009 San Dimas/La Verne AYSO soccer season.

Non-competitive divisions (U6, U7 and U8) will be practicing one day per week up to one hour per practice.  Lit practice fields will be at Horsethief Park and practice times start at 4:30, 5:30 and 6:30.

U10 Teams may practice up to twice a week for 1 1/2 hours each practice.  There are U10 fields available at every lit practice field except Horsethief but most are at Oak Mesa.  Practice times start at 5:00 and 6:30 pm.

U12, U14, U16 and U19 Teams may practice up to twice a week for 1 1/2 hours each practice.  There are fields available at every lit practice field but limited availability at Horsethief.  Most practice times start at 5:00 and 6:30 pm.

Teams may also reserve and practice on any unlit field available to AYSO teams and switch from their unlit to their lit field space when they feel appropriate. Sign up for lit and unlit space will open at the same time. Carefully check the field diagrams for possible conflicts with other sports teams and use your unlit field space during those times of unavailability.

Logon Information: Your logon information will be your team number and the password will be based on the coach's name. If you are team #6 in the U12 boys division your team number is U12B06. Note that all letters are upper case and the 0's are zeros. If you are coaching U16 girls team #2 your team number is U16G02. Your password is the coach's first initial plus last name, all lower case, followed by the team number. Using the examples above, coach Gina Smith’s password would be gsmith06 and coach Justin Garcia’s password would be jgarcia02.

Special for U7: As a new division the system has not been modified for this. To log in your team identifier will be U08 and your team number will be 21 or higher. So if you are U07G25 your logon ID will be U08G25.

Testing your logon: The team ID’s will be loaded into the system by 5 pm on July 26 and you are encouraged to verify that your’s works. The web site for the practice scheduler will be linked from the AYSO 112 web site front page, www.ayso112.org. When you enter your ID and password into the blanks on the form and click submit the system should return to you a summary page. If the system gives a login error, check your ID (be sure all letters are upper case and all zeros are present) and password (be sure all letters are lower case, zeros are present, and no letters and numbers have gotten mixed) and try again. If you are still not able to log in contact the region's web administrator at help@soccersupport.net.

From the summary page one option is the Profile page.  Each team is required to have the coach's name, phone and e-mail address in the system.  A reservation can be made without this but it will expire in three minutes unless this information is entered.  This information can be entered before August 2 so we encourage you to enter it now.

After logging in, if you would like to try the system you can proceed to search for a practice field.  From the summary page select "Schedule" and you will get a page with search criteria.  After you have scheduled practice fields the option to release your reservation and a summary of what you have reserved will also appear here.  Select the search criteria and click either the “Find Available” button or the "Show All" button to search. The Show All button will return all fields that meet your criteria even if they are already taken.  The following screen will show the results of your search and which of those fields are available.  Mark the check box and hit reserve to make a reservation. If you do practice requesting a field and submit the request, the request will be cleared by the administrator at about 7 am the next day to keep the schedule clear (but you will know that you can do it). The testing period on the sign-up system will end at about 2 pm on Sunday August 2.

Signing Up for a Practice Field: The system will become available for actual sign-up requests on Sunday August 2, 2009. A team may sign up for two lit field practice times and two unlit practice times. (U6, U7 and U8 sign up for one of each) Based upon feedback from last year, most practice spaces will be available to be reserved on Monday & Wednesday or Tuesday & Thursday with a single reservation. Some spaces will be available for single days to allow for any two practice days, Monday through Friday. Practice slots are filled on a first-come first-served basis. Log on and select a field and time as described above. (Depending on how you construct the search you may need to search and submit multiple times to get all your practice times.) We do require the coach's name, phone and e-mail address in the profile.  This information is only visible by the administrator, not by the public. The practice slot will be held by the system until the administrator reviews and approves, or denies, the request. Also be aware that you may not overbook your reservations.  If you have a reservation and make a new one that put you over your limit your earliest reservation will be canceled.
