| Yellowbird - Bearspaw Community Soccer 2008 We offer a spring outdoor community-based soccer program for children ages 4 to 18 years of age. Our program runs from late April to the end of June. U12 to U18 teams in Provincial playoffs will play into July. Under 6, Under 8, and Under 10 teams will play within the KICKS (Kaskitayo Intra-Community Kids Soccer) group of communities. Blue Quill, Yellowbird, Ermineskin, Heritage Valley, Blackmud Creek, and Twin Brooks offer a program that keeps players closer to home and keeps the fees affordable. Players in the Under 12 to Under 18 categories will play within SWEMSA (South-West Edmonton Minor Soccer Association). Fees for these ages are set by SWEMSA. Fees for all ages include an individual and team photo. Competitive players: Players ages 10 years and older whom are interested in a higher level of commitment) may want try-out for the Southwest Sting Program, operated through SWEMSA (www.swemsa.com). Registering with the Yellowbird program will ensure placement on a community team if the player is unable to secure a position on an elite team. |
