In a normal soccer season, costs are easily estimated and registration fees are set accordingly. With the Covid-19 pandemic, some costs cannot be estimated, and there is a risk that the soccer season will be cancelled mid-season, for health and safety reasons.

It is anticipated that outdoor soccer registration fees will be reduced because of the shorter soccer season. Full details of the new reduced fees, if they happen, are not yet known.

CYSA is a non-profit, volunteer run organization, and we are doing are best to balance these priorities:

• Provide safe recreational soccer for Charleswood youth.
• Charge appropriate registration fees.
• Provide registration fee refunds, automatically when appropriate, and as requested.
• Avoid losing money, which would prevent CYSA from providing recreational soccer in the future.
• Do all of the above without over-burdening our volunteers.

Refunds for over-payment amounts will be automatically issued, if the refunded amount is greater than $10 per player, once the season has ended.

Because of the unpredictable nature of Covid-19, CYSA will handle refund situations as detailed below.

1. A refund requested prior to training sessions (i.e. practices) beginning:

   Full refund upon request.

2. If the soccer season is cancelled after training sessions begin but before scheduled games are played:

   CYSA must still pay for some overhead costs in this scenario (e.g. insurance costs), and cannot refund the full registration fee.

   The refunded amount will be the registration fee with overhead costs deducted. The estimated overhead cost is $60 per player, but the overhead cost is not yet known.

   Using the original registration fee amount, estimates of the refund amounts in this case are as follows:

   Age Group	Registration Fee	Estimated overhead costs	Estimated Refund
   U13-U18	$240	$60	$180
   U11-U12	$220	$60	$160
   U9-U10	$180	$60	$120

3. If a refund is requested after training sessions begin but the soccer season has not been cancelled:

   For example, a parent may choose to withdraw their child from soccer because of health and safety concerns after games have begun.

   CYSA will compassionately consider these requests on a case by case basis. A refund is not guaranteed in these cases.

4. If the soccer season is cancelled after training sessions begin and after scheduled games have started:

   A refund amount will be calculated that considers the overhead costs (e.g. insurance costs) plus the costs incurred to run the shortened season (e.g. costs for jerseys, referees, field lining, etc.).

   If the refunded amount is greater than $10 per player, refunds will be automatically issued.

5. If a refund is requested after the soccer season is completed as scheduled:

   The refund request will fall under the standard CYSA policy: CYSA Registration Policy

It has now been announced that return to play protocols for the 2020 outdoor season of play have been approved by the Manitoba Soccer Association (MSA), Sports Manitoba and the Canada Soccer Association (CSA). Sanctioned Activities will be allowed to begin as early as June 17th beginning with Stage 1: non-contact training.

The timeline of when we will be able to move into Stage 2 (limited contact training) and Stage 3 (Resumption of Competitive play) will be determined by the MSA and in conjunction with provincial health authorities and will be dependent on how the provincial Covid-19 cases progress as activities resume. The MSA along with CSA and provincial health authorities can make adjustments to the return to play stages and guidelines as deemed necessary for the safety of participants.

All players will be required to complete a one time waiver and to review parent and player protocols prior to participating in any activities. This information will be sent to team groupings in the coming days through the boys convenor and myself for girls as acting girls convenor. Expect this information by early next week as well as an update on fee structure changes which may occur depending on how the season of play progresses.

I am also requesting that anyone who is able to volunteer respond to this notice ASAP. At this time, many age groups for both male and female players do not have volunteers for coaching. Without those volunteers we will not be able to get those players and teams back out on the field.

As we move into this next stage and return to seeing players out on the field of play, I thank everyone for their on-going patience and support as the soccer community adjusts.

Take Care,
Erin Beyko
