Hello,

You are receiving this email because you have registered a child for the PHWM Soccer spring program on a wait list.

PHWM Soccer will run a spring recreation soccer program

All current wait list registrations will be released from the wait lists on Friday 2/19. A message will be sent, from the registration system, to the email address listed in the registrants' owners account, stating an order has been created and to sign in to your account to complete the spring registration payment. 

Please make the spring season registration payment or cancel the order before 3/5/21, after receiving the email notice.

If you want to cancel the order and not participate in the spring program email Terry Nolan at [email protected].

Age group registration will remain opened until 3/5/21 (as paid registrations), some age groups may close earlier when the maximum number of players for an age group in registered.

Registration for the Spring program will be less than the normal number for the PHWM Soccer spring program. No child may participate in the PHWM Soccer spring program without registering and the parent agreeing to the Baltimore County COVID Waiver Form (during registration).

PHWM Soccer is a volunteer organization. To have a Spring recreation soccer program will require the support of families participating in the program to follow the COVID-19 guidelines, rules and preventative requirements to stop the spread of the coronavirus as best as possible. Details are below and are posted to the PHWM Soccer websites.

Parents: if you and your child(ren) will not commit to the preventive requirements please cancel your order for the fall soccer program!!

Thank you to the parents that have registered to volunteer to coach and be team managers. PHWM Soccer recognizes this will not be the normal coaching experience with the Covid-19 guidelines.

Unfortunately, all age groups are short on volunteer head coaches (as of 2/18/21) and we must have enough coaches to run the age groups. PHWM Soccer understands the additional risk for a volunteer this season but must request additional volunteer coaches. You can register to volunteer from your registration account or contact the age group coordinator listed before.
