DLA team registration plans/coach status Boys U9 – We have enough boys for one team. Adam Kenney to coach. Should be able to set up games with El Dorado Hills and Granite Bay. U11 – Will register one team with wait list starting at 22 players.
U13 – 27 currently registered but 2 being moved up to U15’s leaving 25. The wait list is to be re-opened. If we get to 34 players we can decide to register two teams. U15 – Plan to register one team Girls U13 & U15 – Enough girls registered to justify register one team each. It appears that Suzanne Isidor can oversee the coaching of the U13 & U15 teams but will not be able to be the head coach for either team. DTA will email UCD women’s club team contacts to see if any players might be interested in coaching one of these teams. Fall Ball – Dave Ceppos reported that there we no lesson plans nor emails to the coaches ahead of the practices. Coaching stipends/Player registration offset The board discussed and agreed that each coaching position could have a stipend and that stipend can be used to offset the registration fees for the coach’s child(ren). Any offset must be included in the coach’s contract. If the registration fees for the program are higher than the stipend received by the coach, the difference must be paid by the player’s family. Equipment rental - The board discussed and agreed that a boy’s equipment package, consisting of a helmet, gloves, and elbow and shoulder pads can be rented for $50/season. Jerseys – Mark Soeth and Dina Runk have started working on a new uniform order.
