| When are rosters submitted for youth soccer? Is it possible to be rostered by two different clubs? |
Yes. There are a few ways it could happen. |
| My son is leaving his current club for a new one. Is it the parents job, the new club, or the old clubs ? What happens if he is rostered by two different clubs is eligible to play for both? |
We have to sign a contract that we only play with our club. |
The player card is the key thing. But make sure both clubs are ok with it first. |
What are the few ways? I know of one. You can be rostered on a team that is associated with US Soccer and another team that is with US Club Soccer. The only US Club soccer teams that I know of are ECNL teams and NPL teams. You cannot be double rostered on two US soccer teams or two US Club Soccer teams. So for example, you can be rostered on an ECNL team and an EDP team. |
Generally it's a bit of both with old club and new, but primarily it's up to the new club to register your child properly. If the clubs play in different leagues it's possible to be registered for both leagues and not break any rules. I can think of only a couple times I've seen this happen where two clubs were in agreement on the situation - but it does happen albeit very rarely. |
| Good lord are you trying time play both sides and do GA and ECNL? Hope not because that is really unfair to players who are dedicated. I would assume if a coach found this out you would be off team and the parents would support that. |
Ive never seen the issue come up before. I have seen on the got soccer rankings players on multiple clubs rosters. That I think is just pure laziness of the team manager to clean up the roster. I would hate to think they would use it to sneak ineligible players into games. |
This time of year, the club releases everyone from the rosters. Your new club will add you to their roster. It usually happens in August. Ask your new team manager for assistance. If you leave a club in the middle of the contract, it is your job as a parent to get the paperwork prepared and sent to the clubs. Once this is done then the paperwork can be sent to the registrar for your state. It may be possible to be registered for two teams. This question is asked every year on one of the two administrative papers you should be filling out every year. |
It's not that it may be possible...it is possible....just as long as one team is US Soccer and the other is US Club Soccer. When someone is rostered on a team, a player card is created and that player is registered with ONE team in the US Soccer System or US Club System. You can't be rostered on another US Soccer team (or Club Soccer team) until the first team releases your player card. Once the team releases the player car, the player becomes available in the system for the new team to add him. |
| I would love to see a fingerprint system in place with a portable reader or an iPhone type app. That way teams couldn't sneak 14 year olds down on their U12 teams. Would make tournament checkins and player tracking very effective and efficient. |
This is ridiculous, signing a kid in two leagues this year when we don’t know if fall will actually happen. |
I think the OP isn't trying to play for multiple leagues. I think they just wanted to transfer clubs as smooth as possible. |
