Why does CYSA charge a late registration fee?
CYSA charges a modest late registration fee for fall soccer after a certain cutoff date each year. This is to encourage families to register their children in a timely manner. There is an incredible amount of behind the scenes work that has to take place by CYSA volunteers, in a very short time between when registration ends and the season begins. We have to determine the number of teams, when and where they can play, how many children to put on a team, etc. The more children that are registered in a timely manner, the easier this process becomes. Parents have two months to register their children online before the late fee kicks in. Notices are put into the local papers, email reminders are sent to the addresses in the database from previous years, and the web site contains specific information.
