Safety First

Soccer is a physical sport that entails some degree of risk. Minor scrapes and strains are to be expected. But with reasonable precautions we can look forward to many seasons of injury-free play.

Each coach has a first aid kit. Let the coach know if your child has any illnesses or condition of which he or she should be aware.

Shin guards are mandatory for practice and game play.

Dress for the weather: In hot weather bring extra water and ice. Water and ice in a cloth can cool down the players. In cool weather, wear layers under your uniform such as turtle-neck and sweat pants.

Skokie AYSO participates in the AYSO Safe Haven program. This program is designed to protect both children and volunteers. It includes the screening and training of volunteers and promotes education and awareness. AYSO and Region 568 have taken a lead in creating a Safe Haven where no child or volunteer will be at risk.
