REFEREES WANTED: St. Patrick is looking for youth (15+) and adults that would be interested in becoming CYC soccer referees. St. Patrick Athletic Association will provide all the training and instruction required to become a successful CYC referee. This is a great way to make some extra money and help out St. Patrick athletics. If you or someone you know is interested, please contact: Jeff Lepp, Assistant Referee Coordinator, 314-249-6003 or [email protected]. All referees must be compliant with the Safe Environment Program. This consists of attending a Protecting God’s Children Workshop and registering with Prevent & Protect online. For assistance with Prevent & Protect, contact Rebecca Stoehner, Child Safety Coordinator, at [email protected].

CYC ID CARDS REQUIRED: All players, regardless of age, and coaches are required to have a CYC ID Card. There is a $5.00 yearly fee for the youth card and a $5.00 one-time fee for the adult card. All cards will be delivered to your email as an image file. No physical card will be mailed. Apply online.

COACHES & ASST. COACHES: Your continued support through volunteering to coach is, as always, greatly needed and appreciated! All coaches and assistant coaches must be compliant with the Safe Environment Program. This consists of attending a Protecting God’s Children Workshop (in person or online). For assistance, contact Rebecca Stoehner, Child Safety Coordinator, at [email protected]. You must also complete an online Coaching to Make a Positive Difference Class, and have a CYC ID Card.

VOLUNTEERS: It takes a concerted effort to make a season successful, so we are always looking for volunteers. If you would like to help with coaching, supervising, coordinating referees, or in any other way, please contact the coach or athletic director. All volunteers must be compliant with the Safe Environment Program. This consists of attending a Protecting God’s Children Workshop. For assistance, contact Rebecca Stoehner, Child Safety Coordinator, at [email protected].

BEHAVIOR: The behavior of both the coaches and fans will again be very emphasized this year to avoid any incidents between opposing coaches, fans, players, or referees. There is a NO tolerance policy in effect. If an incident occurs, you will be asked to leave the field immediately and possibly suspended for the next game or more depending on the severity of the incident. This pertains to anyone attending or coaching a game. Please help us make this a pleasant experience for our children.
