TEAM MANAGERS

Value & Roles

Team Managers are a vital part of a successful performance team. They handle the administrative duties for the team allowing the coach and trainers to prepare the players for competition.
Salvo SC coaches are asked to communicate directly to the families on team development, expectations, and progress, while managers are the communications liaison between the parents, Salvo SC administrators, scheduling entities, and tournament directors for all other topics.
A successful and enjoyable season requires a strong partnership between the manager and coach along with good planning.

REQUIRED BEFORE THE MANAGER STARTS ANYTHING-

(The league your team is participating in will determine which of the following requirements the team manager will need to complete. If you are unsure of what league your team is participating in, please contact you director.)

TEAM EXPENSES

Each team will have expenses that go beyond what the player registration fee covers. These expenses may include tournament registration fees, coach travel, extra dome space costs, winter league fees, referee fees, etc.
Team Managers are not responsible for collecting these fees. Salvo SC staff will set each team's budget based on the expectations for the team. Families will set up their payment of these fees as a part of the registration process. We will adjust the team fees being collected as we finalize rosters and determine actual expenses incurred.
Team budgets are on the team’s resource tab in PlayMetrics and are reflective of expenses that have been spent by the team, updated as of the date in the top corner of the page.
All questions regarding team fees and team budgets should be directed to teamexpenses@salvosoccer.org. Please include your team's name in the subject line of every email. Your team name is the last two digits of the birth year, gender, geo location, and color. For example, 06G East Red, 09B South Grey, 02B Navy.

PRACTICES/SCRIMMAGES

Practices

Teams are scheduled based on their program. A contact is a practice, game, or Training Haus session. Travel (Red, Crimson, Scarlet) and Select/Elite (Steel, Grey, Carbon) teams have three weekly contacts. HP (Navy, Orange, White) teams have four weekly contacts. Girls Academy teams have 4-6 contacts per week. Salvo staff built the field schedule to match this tempo.
Teams should anticipate getting half a field for all outdoor practices.
Coaches can see who will be on the other side of the field by selecting Schedules in the side menu of PlayMetrics.
If you need to adjust your schedule by adding or dropping a session, coaches/managers should fill out the Field Form-Practices. Please allow 48 hours for a response to requests.
Any practice changes should consider the tempo of contacts prescribed for your team’s level.
If there is a coaching conflict, first consider moving the practice. If moving the game or practice is not possible, it should be arranged in advance to have another Salvo coach cover the session and communication with the team.

Scrimmages

Teams can request to use space for scrimmages throughout their season. There will be a cost associated with using space. This cost is typically split between the two teams scrimmaging. To schedule a scrimmage, reach out to Steve.
When emailing, please include:

Team info (07G East Red, 11B South Steel, etc...)
Opponent (if Salvo, team info, if non-Salvo, just club name)
Reservation location and start and stop time.
Scrimmage start time. OK to put ASAP if you want to start as soon as possible once you have the field or to identify how much warm-up time you want after the reservation starts.

FAQ
How are tournaments decided?

For all HP (Navy/Orange/White) and Elite/Select (Steel/Grey/Carbon) teams, tournaments will be determined by the Director in conversation with the Coach.
For all Travel and Seasonal (Red/Crimson/Scarlet) teams, tournaments will be suggested by Salvo SC based on previous experience of well-run events, but final decisions should be made by the Coach with team-input based on availability.
