REMINDERS/UPDATES YOU NEED TO KNOW!
- Gear Exchange: This is a wonderful program, and it relies on you to make it go! If you have gently used soccer gear that you are no longer able to use (mainly cleats your kids have grown out of, balls, shinguards, etc.), please bring them to our gear exchange and we will help them get recycled! If your kids have forgotten their cleats, or grown out of them, please feel free to get a new pair out of the gear exchange! It's that simple!
- GOAL SAFETY: NO climbing on goals or rough play with the small portable goals. It's not that we don't want kids to have fun, it's that we don't want anyone to get hurt! Every year kids and adults are getting permanently injured and killed from goals flipping on them. If you see anyone playing on a goal, or hanging from the crossbar, PLEASE ask them to stop and report the incident to the nearest coach or MUSC Board Member.
-
Give a hoot, don't pollute!
Please pick up water bottles and other litter you may come across around the fields. The guys mowing don't have time to stop and pick it up, so they just run over it
- Bathrooms and Trash:
PLEASE do not put 'general' trash (food, discarded chairs, car debris) in the bathroom trash cans - use the cans in the pavilion for trash generated at the fields, and use the dumpster if your chair, umbrella or canopy blows out. If you have trash from outside restaurants, please take it home with you and don't leave it for a volunteer to deal with! (Racoons also get in our trash at nights, and food is what they are looking for!)
-
Dogs:
Officially, we have a No dog policy at our fields. We have relaxed that over the past few years, but this is a reminder that not everyone is a fan, so please be responsible - keep your dog on a leash, be respectful of those around you and if you see someone is uncomfortable, please move away from them it is not their responsibility to move - it is yours).
PLEASE continue the great job you've all been doing of picking up after your dog! (Poop, hair - if you are grooming them, please just leave behind piles of hair, if you are feeding them and they don't eat it all, please take the excess home, etc...) One incidence of someone stepping in dog poop may be enough to ban dogs altogether. (This ban would not apply to working service dogs, but will apply to emotional support dogs)
