Dear League Board of Directors,
Now that the fall 2009-2010 season is ended, many leagues are busily working on seasonal registration operations such as the spring, summer and the impending fall 2010-2011 seasons! Within that vein of activity, we are also focusing our efforts on programs that are typified as non-traditional programs such as clinics, camps, and academies.
These programs are quite diverse, but encompass activities that should be incorporated into the registration process. CCAP (Camps, Clinics and Academy Programs), as we aptly named these play types, can now be captured easily and affordably within the standard registration process that you are already familiar with today. This proactive measure is chiefly to avoid any potential problems in key areas such as KidSafe and personal injury. In addition, these key programs, among
others, help strengthen and insure best protection practices for our membership.
We fully understand that the primary motivations of these clinics/academies and camps are to inspire enjoyment of the game and development of soccer skills for our youth players, coaches and parents alike. However, these programs, although well intended, generally do not meet the Cal South policy standards or requirements that serves the best interests of everyone involved.
The process is simple, affordable and very necessary, so please take the few extra steps and get engaged with CCAP the gateway to a successful season.
