Games will be cancelled if there is lightning, extreme heat advisories, or an AQHI of 8 or higher. The decision is made by the PECSA executive and communicated through our Facebook page, the website, and directly with the impacted coaches to share with their teams.

We have scheduled 11 youth house league games through the season. PECSA will guarantee players get 9 games. If any more than two games are cancelled, those will be rescheduled.

SHIN GUARDS ARE MANDATORY!

Players are not permitted to play if they are not wearing shin guards under their socks. Referees are required to enforce this Canadian Soccer Association rule of mandatory equipment.

NO JEWELLERY

Bracelets, watches, necklaces, earrings can NOT be worn during the game. The only permitted piece of "jewelry" is a medical alert bracelet. Earrings cannot be bandaged over. This is rule of the Canadian Soccer Association that must be enforced by the referees.

NETS

No child is allowed to play on the nets. PECSA Executive will remove any one found playing around the nets. If it occurs during a game, the ref will stop the game, and the player will be removed and banned from playing the remainder of the game. Please play safe!

PLEASE DO NOT DROP & RUN!

Parents, please remember that no child is to be left alone on the fields at any time. Please stay with your child during the whole game.

For the 2025 Season, PECSA will provide digital photos ONLY.

At the beginning of the 2024 Season, PECSA put out a tender request for a new Photographer.  After careful review of all tenders, Amy Deroche Photography was contracted to take all of our individual player and team photos. As this photographer's service was to provide digital photos only and this was a change from prior years that was not known at time of registration, PECSA offered to have player photos printed by Printcraft. We acknowledge that this proved to be a frustrating transition.

PECSA will accommodate the request from Coaches for their own and one additional player to be on their team.

Sponsors are also granted requests for 1 or 2 affiliated children for their teams.

Additional 'friend' requests will be accepted, but cannot be guaranteed. Please note these parameters:

1. Requests must be one-to-one player reciprocated requests (i.e. both players must have requested they be on the same team as the other)
2. Requests are to be made when registering the player online. There is a new field on the form to enter this information.
3. Requests will not be taken after the registration deadline.
4. The reciprocal player request must also be made by the deadline.
5. Requests are accepted at the discretion of the PECSA; submitting a request is not a guarantee that it will be provided. Our main priority when building teams is to balance the skill level to the best of our ability.

We, as an association, do our best to balance teams. If after the second or third week, there is a clear unbalanced team-weak or strong-we reserve the right to make adjustments to ensure everyone has a great season.

Coaches, please remember this is house league soccer! All players deserve the same amount of time on the field, regardless of their skill level. Play Fair, Have Fun!
