FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE

We believe that every child should have access to soccer in
our community. There are a couple of programs to help
those in financial hardship:

• KidSport

• JumpStart

FIRST, please register your child by creating a member
profile with CWSC and selecting they pay by cheque
method of payment for the selected program. Then
register with KidSport/JumpStart. These organizations
both check back to ensure a registration is complete and
confirm fees. Both organizations will then direct deposit
the fees into our account, upon approval. If there remains
a balance the family is responsible for clearing those up.

We will only accept the financial assistance, if this process
has been followed exactly.

MANDATORY ITEMS

Parent(s), or a designated caregiver, is required to be at the soccer field while a
child is participating in soccer, socially distanced (Fields will have marked
parameters from where parents can watch).
•   a name-tagged water bottle
•   suitable footwear (running shoes/cleats not mandatory but advised
    particularly for older groups)
•   a set of shin guards worn underneath the sock
•   Face covering as mandated by AHS or other government agencies.
•   These are mandatory and can be purchased at stores such as Kicks Sports
    where we have a 10% discount for all members.
TEAM PLACEMENT

We encourage all players to remain in their age group. However to accommodate
siblings in the same group, we will move a younger player up to the older age
group, but not down. Once your child is assigned to a cohort, the child will only be
able to change to another cohort if all AHS regulations are enforced, including a
potential quarantine. The AHS requirement for quarantine may not be desirable
and we are not responsible for lost sessions. For friend requests, as long as your
child is playing in the same age group as their friend, they will be in the same
program together.
