In the Spring Seasons, participants in this age group will also receive a PASA Cup tee shirt to use during the PASA Cup Tournament at the end of the Spring season.  Game jerseys will not be distributed until payment is received. The game jerseys are available at the complex during game days.  Your child will wear this jersey until s/he outgrows it so order a little big. If you already have a PASA/CFA reversible (purple/white) game jersey, you don’t need to order one. You can purchase shorts and socks anywhere, but we do sell them (they are black) at the concession stand. Shorts are $15 and socks are $5. 
Cleats are recommended but not required. No baseball/football cleats, only soccer or all-around cleats allowed. We do not sell cleats or shin guards. Shin guards must be worn or the player will not be allowed to play/practice. NO jewelry is allowed during practices/games except medical jewelry and then it must be taped down to the skin. This is for the players’ safety.
Slide tackling is not allowed in this age group.
