(Posted 8/22)

Hello Soccer Families, 

The fall soccer season is almost here - please see important details below as we look to have a fun and safe season.  This will be updated as needed.

• Travel Program: Your teams coach/manager have, or will start to communicate details with you soon and your players team will be posted online (Pomperaug Soccer Club) for scheduling.
• Travel Program & U7/U8 In-House Program: The trainer practice is run by Everson Coaches and the schedule per team has been posted on the PSC Home page - Fields Dropdown - Training Schedule OR go directly HERE. Practices will start at Settlers and move to Community House or Meadowview Park once lights are needed.
• Opening weekend is September 11th; Travel game schedules do not get released until the District meetings the week prior & your coach or team manager will communicate with you.  In-House program details will be relayed by the coordinators.
• Travel Program: For those with delayed uniform kits - please plan to have a red and a gray t-shirt with any red shorts available for the first week or two of games.
• In-House program: Details for all age groups U4-U8 will be communicated by the coordinators.

Thank you,

Pomperaug Soccer Club

Uniform & Fan Gear store Vendor:

Moving forward the club will use Soccer.com to provide our uniform kits and fan gear options including shirts, sweatshirts, jackets, hats, and more. 

• The direct link to the Pomperaug Soccer Club Online Fan Gear store on soccer.com is HERE.
• Families will have more variety of fan gear products and customization options available.
• See the additional details about Soccer.com and benefits to our soccer families HERE.
• For Uniforms, the club will have a new style of Red jersey for the Fall 2020 season.  All players have the option to purchase the New Red jersey (along with any replacement uniform kit pieces) but it is NOT required if you have a PSC uniform already.
• Details are sent out by the Uniform coordinator for both New and Returning Travel players.
• The PSC Uniform Coordinator will setup your player and assign a jersey # in the soccer.com system before you can place your uniform kit order.  Please contact pscuniforms@outlook.com with any questions.
• The direct link to Pomperaug Soccer Club Uniform Kit on soccer.com is HERE. 

Uniform Replacement Cycle:

As with many retailers, every style has a shelf-life based on the manufacturer.  We have been provided the following guidance for planning when to replace our uniform which applies to all the major manufactures including Adidas who we use. 

• Generally, a uniform style is available from Adidas for two full years, this would cover 4 soccer seasons.  Our current uniform started in Fall 2018, then to Spring 2019, then the following Fall 2019/Spring 2020 seasons.
• Our uniform refresh cycle moving forward will be Fall 2020 and then again for Fall 2022, and so on.  
• The good news is for Fall 2020 we will only need to replace the Red Jersey. 
  • There will also be a new style of short/socks but they will continue to be Red, therefore existing pairs will match close enough to be reused if they still fit.
  • The Gray jersey will continue to be available through Spring 2022.

New Uniform Kit starting Fall 2020-Spring 2022 season can be seen - HERE.

Hello Soccer Families,

Thank you for your patience as we have worked on the new website platform in conjunction with the CJSA.  Due to some ongoing issues and limitations we have 2 websites available and this will continue for future seasons.  See the details below.

• www.pomperaugsoccerclub.com is our primary website running on League Athletics for league communications, team management, scheduling of practices & games by your coaches, email reminders.  This site is also being used for registration of our In-House Program age groups ONLY.
  ​How to access the site:
  • You can see your teams schedule at any time by using the menus on the top menu bar under 'Team'
  • Use your existing login - if you do not recall select the '?' and reset your password.
  • New Parents/Coaches - an account was generated using the email address that was in the Stack Sports registration system for your player or if you registered for an In-House program.  Select 'Sign In' link on the top right, then select the '?' and reset your password.
  • Information was imported into this website and you may not see roster photos for all players, this is OK.
  • If you need to update communication information, please update on both websites.
     
• clubs.bluesombrero.com/pomperaugsoccer - is the newest website platform called 'Sports Connect.  The Connecticut Junior Soccer Association (CJSA) has moved to yet another website platform away from Stack Sports which unfortunately had multiple issues from day one when introduced in the Fall 2018 season.  Each soccer club in the various districts across CT need to submit their Travel teams/players using this platform due to CJSA requirements. 
  • This is the site used just for Travel registration activities as of Fall 2020.  The 'Register: Travel' button above redirects you to this site.
  • This is the master location of the player/coach photos & age verification which is done with CJSA.
  • This is the master location of the status of your account and communication settings.
  • If you need to update communication information, please update on both websites.

Contact your coach if you have additional questions.
Thank you,
Pomperaug Soccer Club
