COVID-19 Update

January 31, 2021

Dear Tillsonburg Minor Soccer Families,

With our children returning safely to school and vaccines in our sights, there are many reasons for optimism that the summer of 2021 will be MUCH better than 2020.

In fact, this optimism has lead us to the decision to open registration for the 2021 Outdoor House League Season. While we aren’t yet sure of what this season may look like, we believe that a safe return to play will be possible.

As we celebrate the passing of the 2020 season, we honour this optimism by offering a discount of $20.20 off of every registration U6 and up (U4 & U5 age groups are heavily subsidized by Timbits Soccer).

Because of the current lockdown, we cannot accurately predict when the season start may be. We have set a tentative start date for the week of June 7. This will allow for more time for people to be safe and healthy, and for season preparations to take place during a time of social distancing.

We are excited for the future, and cannot wait to see you on the fields of Tillsonburg Minor Soccer Club! Registration is now open online!

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Sincerely,

Tillsonburg Minor Soccer Club

 

FAQs

“What could the 2021 Season look like?”

At this point, we still do not know. There are several options on the table, for instance a 5v5 season with 9 players and 1 coach with parents social distancing on the side lines, or even a full “normal” season with full sides and lots of spectators (we can always hope).

“I left money on my account, can I use that money to pay for this season?”

Absolutely! We thank you for leaving your 2020 registration fees with us. The financial perils of the COVID-19 pandemic left a lot of sports organizations in severe trouble. We have been able to continue because of your generosity.

Your account credit will be automatically applied to your basket at checkout.

“Since the season is still up in the air, can I wait to pay until I know?”

Yes you can! We do have a season payment deadline of May 1, 2021. This will allow our uniform provider to have our uniforms ready, and for our convenors to create the teams and schedules. A final decision will be made by this date as to whether or not a season will take place.

“If I do not feel comfortable with returning to play at this time, can I get a refund?”

Yes you can. The health and safety of you and your children is very important to us. However, we understand that these are uncertain times. Refunds can be obtained by completing the form here.
