ANNOUNCEMENT

We are very excited to announce PlayMetrics, our new all-in-one registration and communications software platform!  PlayMetrics reduces the applications you use to interact and communicate with our club and your teams.  Using the PlayMetrics app on your mobile phone, you can now register and communicate with us, taking our club communication and organization to the next level.

As you begin using PlayMetrics, you may have questions about how to navigate your account. The Help articles below offer instructions as you start using the system.

BENEFITS TO YOU

It helps us communicate with all of our families more clearly and effectively, including updates to practice schedules and field closures as they happen.

Player Registration

Coach Registration

There are two registrations to complete to be coach, assistant coach, trainer, or manager on a recreational team.

  1. Google Form
  2. Background Check and Certifications

Please complete the Google Form below.  We will not know you want to be a coach/assistant/trainer/manager if you do not complete this form.  This form is not a guarantee of a team, but let’s us know you are wanting to volunteer.

Coach Sign Up Sheet – https://forms.gle/wUN7dLBHuoNMg9fz7

All coaches, assistant coaches, managers, and anyone working with players must be sure the following is complete:

  1. SafeSport Training
  2. Intro to Safety – Covers Concussion Certification and Sudden Cardiac Arrest Certification
  3. Risk Status (Background check) and Season Registration – Be sure you choose Fall 2024-2025 (NOT REC Fall)

All certifications must be done through the US Soccer Learning Center.  The association will not accept other certifications uploaded.   Certifications must be current and not expire during the season.  They may say you are current, but if they expire before the end of the season, you need to complete them.  You cannot renew more than 60 days in advanced of the expiration.

Before you complete your background check, you need to complete SafeSport or SafeSport recertification and Intro to Safety.  US Youth Soccer has moved this to the US Soccer Learning Center.  If you have registered for a coaching license/certification, you have an account.

Process:

  1. Complete the training certifications (required annually)
    1. SafeSport – If you have completed SafeSport in the past locate your SafeSport ID number. Your SafeSport ID number can be located on a past SafeSport certificate.
    2. Intro to Safety – Concussion and Sudden Cardiac Arrest training are combined in the US Soccer Learning Center as Intro to Safety
  2. Complete your background check
    1. Background checks require your Social Security Number (SSN)
    2. Your SSN has to match your name.  Do not put in false information, it will deny you and then you have to just do it again.  I, nor anyone in the club, can see this information.  If you DO NOT have a SSN please contact me so I can work with the state.

1.  For the SafeSport and Intro to Safety, click HERE to go to the U.S. Soccer Learning Center.  Please be sure you enter your name, email and DOB the same as your Sports Connect (Affinity) account.  If these do not match, you will not clear.  

  • Click on Supplemental Courses
  • SafeSport and Intro to Safety are listed at the top

2.  Click HERE to start the background checking process. Be sure you choose Fall 2024-2025 (NOT REC Fall)

Spanish: https://washingtonyouthsoccer.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Association-Connect-_State_Compliance_Spanish-Copy-9.16.22.pdf

Your name, DOB, and email address must match both the US Soccer Learning Center and Sports Connect (where you will complete your RMA/background check).  Your certificates will not sync if they do not match and you will not be able to complete the background check.

With the new registration, PlayMetrics, all players will have to upload their state issued birth certificate or passport.  If you did this for the 2023 Fall season, it should not need to be done for spring as long as you use the same account.

No, Washington State Youth Soccer (WYS) requires all players to submit a state issued certificate of live birth or current passport in order to be assigned to a team. Hospital certificates are NOT accepted.

Practice times and start dates vary depending on your team. Most teams will begin practicing late August. Most teams practice twice per week.  We do not know practice schedules before placing players on teams.  Practices are weekdays after 5pm.

Fall season games will be on Friday evenings, or during the day on Saturdays. Games start September 6/7, and end by November 2nd.

Tryouts are not part of the recreational soccer program. Try-outs are held for players age 7 and older wishing to play at an advanced level of competition. These teams are Advanced Competition teams and only play other Advanced Competition teams. All other teams are recreational teams, players are assigned based on last year’s team, team request, and sign-up date.

We encourage all players to register as soon as possible so we can try and honor team and coach requests. There are no guarantees – but returning players who register by the returning player deadline typically are granted their request. Fall season returning player registration deadline is June 15, 2024.

Please do not, it causes errors in the data base and makes it difficult for coaches to contact players! Please create their own account so that their information is accurate for parents to be notified directly. If someone is having trouble registering please have them contact Nick Martinez at grassroots@columbiapremier.com. The public library also has computers for use for free.

Contact Nick Martinez at grassroots@columbiapremier.com if you have more questions.
