With less than a week before our first practice, we are another step closer to making The Nordonia Hills Soccer Association come to life. Thank you to everyone who helped with our uniform pick-up day on Saturday.

Our league has gotten off to a huge start! Initially , we had hoped for 80-100 kids. With your support and interest, we have signed up 177 total players. That has caused us to make some adjustments in locations for practices and games and uniform orders. We ask for your patience and want to let you know that we are all about communication and handling the details. For a first year league, we have been able to accomplish so much in such a short time. Please work with us...we are confident you will be more than satisfied with your families soccer experience this fall.

I would like to apologize to anyone who was unable to get their jersey. We had an issue with the screen printer that left us about 25 jerseys short. This will be corrected next week and we will make sure everyone gets their jersey.

Thank you to RITA'S in Macedonia for providing us with treats for the day. RITA'S will be at all of our games and practices providing us with free treats for everyone.

QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE....

WHEN WILL I GET MY PLAYER'S JERSEY? If your player signed up before early August, the jerseys will arrive before this upcoming practice on August 30th. We will distribute them at practice. Watch the website for info updates on that. If you just recently signed up, your jersey will be ordered Monday and we should have them by our first game the week of Labor Day Weekend.

SHOULD MY PLAYER WEAR FULL UNIFORM FOR PRACTICE AND GAMES?
Yes. We will be using the reversable jerseys for scrimmages during practice. We would suggest an under-shirt for players in case they need to switch during practices and games.

WHEN WILL WE GET GAME SCHEDULES?
The U-10 games will be played at SMITH PARK every Saturday at 9:30am. ALL OTHER AGE GROUPS will play at SAGAMORE PARK at 11am every Saturday.

WILL THERE BE AN END OF YEAR BANQUET?
Yes. Details are being worked on now.

WHEN IS THE PARADE MY PLAYER CAN BE A PARTCIPANT IN?
Sunday, September 16th at 2pm. We are asking ALL players in the league to wear their uniforms and march with us. Details coming soon.

WILL THERE BE RESTROOMS AT SMITH PARK?
Yes. This week.

Once again, I encourage you to keep checking back in with our website. You will constantly get updates on what's happening with the league. You will find weather related info on our site, photo galleries from each practice and game and all the in special event info.

Thank you for bringing the NHSA to life. We are looking forward to exciting Fall soccer season!
