A COUPLE OF MUSTS:

You must provide a copy of your player's birth certificate to your coach before 6:45 p.m. Coaches register their teams at 6:45 p.m.and must provide copies of their players birth certificates at that time. Also, a consent form must also be signed by a parent or guardian before the first game. There are still signatures needed. Check with your coach if you haven't already signed the permission slip.
