Field Setup

U6 Coaches Goal Directions

​The U 6 coaches are the only coaches that need to set up thier goals. The first game teams on the schedule will set up the goals and the last game teams will take them down at the the end of play. Plan to be alittle early to have the goals set in time for play. The goals are located at each U6 field in the equipment box. Both fields at each location need to be set up since we are using the dual field method of play. (That is to say two games at the same time at the same location) At this level, coaches will use cones to mark the corners of the fields. It is helpful to bring a hammer for set up. If you need help call your Commissioner. Click on the link to download directions. Be patient it takes a while especially if your on a modem or have a older computer.

Corner Cones

Corner Flags
U6 and U8 coaches are reminded to the place taller safety cones at each corner of their fields. Again you may leave them set up for the next game. Coaches with the last game should re-secure them in the equipment box at the end of the day. ​
We have a supply of flags at the field. Please ask the referee if none are set up at your field. Flags need to be set up the first game at each field. You can leave them set up for the next game. Teams with the last game of the day should take down the cornor flags place them on the table by the field shed as you exit.

​​GHYSA Policy - End of the Year Activities

​During the Coaches meeting we talked about the year end activities to celebrate the end of the season. Team moms can work with parents to put together a year end party at one of the many local business. If some handy parent wants to bake a cake that usually goes over well. Trophies can be obtained from several sources for around $6.00 give or take a few dollars (pays to shop for the best deal). Coupled with some money for the eating establishment a collection around $15 to $ 20 for each child can provides a memorable event for the players.

GHYSA want to remind all that our program is based on age appropriate play. You may of heard of a Parent Child Game as a way to end the season. GHYSA DOES NOT ALLOW this practice. Parents, coaches will not encourage or host this type of game. Children safety must always be our first priority.
GHYSA POLICY AWARDS: Participation awards for ALL are allowed. No trophies or awards just for best team. The League does not provide awards. Coaches and the teams Parents may decide to provide participation awards. Typically a collection from the parents funds this award and year-end party. Several local suppliers can provide trophies. We will list some suppliers that coaches can contact to shop for the best deal. The below listing is not an endorsement of any supplier and coaches are welcome to e-mail other suppliers to be added to this list.
