REGISTRATION CLOSES MARCH 26, 2010
SEASON OPENS APRIL 18 2010
Welcome to Salem Youth Soccer Association's website. Here you'll find news stories (below), team information (above), field status (right)...just about everything you need to know about SYSA.
Spring season is quickly approaching and it’s time to think SOCCER!!!! I hope everyone is getting through the winter ok. There are a lot of exciting things coming your way this season from SYSA, one of which is an opportunity to take your soccer player to see a professional soccer game. I am a strong advocate for having our young soccer players watch professional/college games. I think it helps them to identify with the sport. We have selected the 5/15 Revolution game because it is a 6PM start. This means it’s not too late at night for your little ones to attend. It also promises to be an outstanding match as well as a great chance for your soccer player to see the pros!!!
If you have ever been to a Revolution soccer game, you know it’s a lot of fun and a great family event. If you haven’t ever been, this is a great opportunity. We get discounted prices for GREAT seats and the pre-game fun in the parking lot (soccer games, kids everywhere etc…) will make it memorable. Deadline for ordering tickets is 4/30/10. Order instructions are on the linked flier (link, Word doc).
I hope you will all consider going. Go as a team, come as a family.. bring your friends…Our league name will be on the big screen!!
Hope to see you all there and welcome to Spring 2010!!
