Important Information For Your Coach

Parents should ensure that the coach is aware of any special medical condition and what actions may be required. 

Please note: WMSA is a recreational league and coaches are not responsible for children at the field. It is the parent's responsibility to have someone supervise their children at all times.


If puffers are used, please discuss with the coach appropriate use, to avoid overuse by players.


Food allergies should be communicated in private with the coach so that other parents are aware of food that is appropriate to bring for the team.

About the Referees

Please remember our referees are also young & learning the game. Mistakes will be made. Their decision is the one that counts and must be respected. Your encouragement will only help them develop.


If you have specific concerns about a referee, please speak with your coach who will pass on the information to the Division Convenor and in turn the Referee-in-Chief. 

Competitive Soccer

WMSA is a partner with the Greater Sudbury Soccer Club. GSSC offers competitive soccer to children aged 8-18 in the City of Greater Sudbury.


WMSA encourages and supports any children and youth who are interested in playing competitive soccer.


WMSA will offer a 100% refund on fees should a child make a GSSC team after registering with WMSA. Children and youth are able to play both WMSA and GSSC if they are interested.


Any family interested in competitive soccer for their child is encouraged to contact GSSC for more information on try-outs and teams.

Refund Policy

If a refund is requested before the season starts, a full refund (minus an administrative fee) will be granted. 

 

If a player withdraws before the first few weeks of the season, a refund of 50% will be granted, provided the full uniform is returned.

 

No refunds will be granted after the first week of June.

 

Any player who registers with WMSA and tries out for a competitive team will receive a full refund if they make their competitive team and choose not to play in the WMSA.

 

Late registrations are subject to a non-refundable late fee of $20.

Reduce Barriers to Participation

Quality recreational opportunities are vital to the health and personal development of all children and youth. The Canadian Parks and Recreation Association (CPRA) position paper Everybody Gets to Play™ - Recreation Without Barriers endorses the research that clearly demonstrates that recreation interventions are an effective and economical strategy to improve the lives of low-income families and their children.

Jumpstart

Founded in 2005, Jumpstart Charities helps kids overcome financial and accessibility barriers to sport and recreation to provide inclusive play for kids of all abilities.

​

Jumpstart is more than just about getting kids active. It's about giving kids from families in financial need the same chance to participate as their neighbours, their classmates, and their friends. Whether it's the chance to try a new sport or to continue with a favourite one, no kid should be left out.
