The competitive division of NYSA-Celtic for boys and Fury for girls-has a commitment level for parents and players of both time and money. Parents can expect expenses paid directly to the club for coaching fees, referee fee, etc. and team fees to cover tournaments, coach expenses (per diem, motel expenses, mileage), and miscellaneous expenses. There will be two practices a week for each team during the school year and games/tournaments on the weekend locally, in state, and out of state. Club Fees are paid monthly online by credit/debit card or echeck ONLY. When you register your child in the competitive program online, you will need to attach a form of payment listed above. If you do not have a credit/debit card or checking account, you will need to purchase a reloadable credit card in order to be billed each month. Below is a breakdown for parents of expected expenses for the upcoming year.
Please read all information on this page concerning the financial obligations of a competitive player and parents. After tryouts on the weekend of Jun 25/26, all registered players chosen for teams will be placed on rosters for the 2011/12 competitive season. The registration fee is $215-$70 for spring, $70 for fall, and $75 for last month coaching fees to be paid at tryouts by check. Each player needs to bring a check in order to accept their position on a team. You may apply for scholarships for the monthly club fees, but they do not include this fee, team fees, or uniforms.
Club Expenses
Each competitive player will pay a yearly club fee of $750 ($75 paid at tryouts) for coaching salaries, league referee fees, insurance fee, Frontier Country fees, Oklahoma Soccer Association fees, etc. We offer several options:
1. Annual fee-Pay $675 in August for the year.
2. Bi-Annual fee-Pay $337.50 in August and $337.50 in January.
3. Monthly fee-Pay a monthly club fee of $75 per month August-April.
All fees are due on the first of the month-by credit card, debit card, or echeck attached to their player registration.
Team Expenses
Each team will attend tournaments locally and out of state depending on coach and team decisions. Each player will need to pay their share of tournament entry fee expenses, coach expenses (motel, mileage, per diem), and miscellaneous expenses (goalie gloves, practice balls). If a player cannot attend a tournament, he/she is responsible for their share of the these fees. Failure to pay team fees can result in player being suspended by their team until their fees are caught up. Each team also pays a field maintenance fee of $500 per season (high school age U15 and up excluded for spring) due in August and January. Each team and coach is based upon the participation of all team members and failure to pay or show up for practices and events places an undue burden upon the remaining players and families.
