Frequently Asked Questions about Player ID

What if my child is going to miss Player ID but still wants to play with Salvo SC?

Register for Player ID. Within the registration, there is a question about attending. Please answer that you will not be attending. We can not place you on a team unless you have registered for Player ID.

What if my child wants to be considered for the position of goalkeeper?

There will be no specific goalkeeper sessions for U9 and U10/11 birth years.

For all U12-U18 birth years, your child should attend the Player ID session for their age group and the program that they want to be considered for. On day one, your child should arrive at the scheduled time and plan to stay through the field player session. The early portion will be spent with goalkeeper staff before joining the field players in small-sided to full games. Day two, your child should arrive at the same time as the field players and will play in the games.

Please note on the Player ID registration form that your child is a goalkeeper.
