Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
When will Pottsgrove Soccer practices begin?
Practices can begin once we enter the “Green” phase
When can soccer games begin?
There are multiple stages which we must go through before we are able to play competitive soccer. However, if we adhere to all the guidelines set forth by EPYSA and the State of Pennsylvania, then we are hopeful that games may resume in August.
Do I need to take my child's temperature prior to a game/practice?
Yes. We all have to do our part to ensure a long and successful soccer season with no interuptions due to a coronavirus outbreak. Parents should assume the responsibility of monitoring your child's health. We are encouraging everyone to take responsibility for a safe and cautious return to play seriously. That includes doing your part to keep sick players home.
