- Generally, a uniform style is available from Adidas for two full years, this would cover 4 soccer seasons. Our current uniform started in Fall 2020, then to Spring 2021, then the following Fall 2021/Spring 2022 seasons.
- Our uniform refresh cycle moving forward will be Fall 2022 and then again for Fall 2024, and so on.
- The club will have a new uniform kit for the Fall 2022 season available starting in July. All players have the option to purchase the New uniform kit but it is NOT required if you have a PSC uniform already.

| General Information - Why Two Websites? 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,
