What equipment does my Mini player need?
Shin pads are mandatory for U5-U12's, and are not provided by the club. SNEAKERS are required for the gym floors. Mini players should NOT wear CLEATS on a gym floor. Clean Sneakers only! Bring water and dress for activity!!
Is there still a need for coaches?
We’re always looking for coaches! No prior experience is needed! Our program runs on the generous time contributions of our volunteers. Please reach out to Shahul for more information and to sign up. There will be staff present at the program so coaching is actually very easy as you will be a helper while the staff coaches take the lead. Have fun interacting with the players.
What happens if I am a coach and need to miss a practice?
If you need to miss a practice, please contact your Head Coach so that we can find a substitute coach if needed. Please notify us at least two weeks in advance so that the practice runs smoothly.
How will I know if my practice is canceled due to poor weather?
As all practices are held inside, in HRCE school gyms, United DFC follows the guidelines of HRCE. If schools are closed due to weather, the program will also be cancelled that day (even if the storm has ended).
An email will also be sent to you from UDFC to alert you of the cancellation. Occasionally, United DFC will cancel a program even though the school is open if the roads are deemed unsafe to travel.
What is a Blackout Date?
There are BLACKOUT DATES where the schools have booked their own gyms for school events. These will be made know to participants in advance. There will be no soccer on a blackout date.
Will my child participate in any tournaments?
There are NO Tournaments planned for the winter mini or community programs.
What is Physical Literacy?
