Why can't I know which team earlier?
- The process for assigning players to teams begins when players register. However, registration is usually open for 2-4 months before the season begins. During this time returning coaches sign up and new coaches volunteer.
- Teams only begin to get finalized at the coaches meeting held 2 weeks before the season begins. From that point the schedule has to be made, fields have to be assigned, and teams not full are filled up.
- The coach gets everything lined up, then communicates, usually by email, with the player parents.
When will practice begin?
- Once you hear from the coach as to what team you are on, they will also give you the practice and game schedules.
When do signups end?
- ABGC tries to accommodate all players possible, but it is dependent on having enough volunteer coaches.
- As teams fill up, an age group may fill up and registration may close early. Players can register in the next higher grade if their grade is filled.
- If you are willing to volunteer as a head coach, and there is still adequate time, the age group may be opened up again at the age group Commissioner's discretion.
Where do I get uniforms?
- Uniforms are sold at the office for $50. They contain a red jersey, white jersey, red shorts and red socks (our colors are red & white).
The uniforms are numbered from 1 thru 20 and your coach should assign you a number before you purchase a uniform.
For soccer and field sports, cleats are not a must, that is up to you. Shin guards are a must.
I'm dissatisfied, who can help me?
- The ABGC is a light staff and heavy volunteer organization. It has run using proven methods for over 60 years. However, issues do arise and we only ask that everyone have an attitude of helpfulness and courtesy in explaining and resolving problems.
- The main office is equipped to handle and resolve most issues. The phone number is 703-941-2242. Mary Rea runs the office if you need to talk with her directly.
