Interested in coaching? Please indicate your interest during registration, we’d love to have you!
Teams are built with every effort to ensure fairness and competitive balance. During registration, parents will be asked to evaluate their child’s experience and skill level. Please provide accurate information to help us create evenly matched teams.
During registration, there is a column with a number (1-5) in it. This is a SELF-REPORTED answer to the question, “Please rate the athletic ability of your child (5 being the strongest)”. Please assess and rate your child’s overall athletic ability on a scale from 1 to 5, with 5 being the strongest. This self-reported measure helps us understand your child’s current level of athletic performance and comfort in sports activities.
Here’s a quick guide to help you choose the right number:
1 - Beginner - New to sports, learning basic skills.
2 - Novice - Some experience, still developing basic skills.
3 - Intermediate - Comfortable with sports, developing intermediate skills.
4 - Advanced - Skilled in sports, refining advanced skills.
5 - Expert - Highly skilled, excels in athletic performance.
This rating assists in ensuring a balanced and enjoyable experience for all participants by helping us group children with similar abilities.
At the Youth Sports Unlimited SCV League, we understand the importance of playing with friends and preferred coaches, which can greatly enhance the enjoyment and comfort of our young athletes. To accommodate this, we offer the option for players to make buddy and coach requests during the registration process. Here’s how it works:
