Parents Guide

May 2019

About the Kanata Dragons

• Formed in 2012 as a not for profit community organization

• Our goal is to offer affordable soccer programs for children aged between 3 and 11

• Our focus is on fitness and fun rather than competition

• 700 children will participate in 2019

Run by volunteers

• Our club is run by volunteers who want to make a difference to their community

• We hire two students in the summer through a government grant to help with the workload.

Dezzy the Dragon

• Our mascot is Dezzy the Dragon

• Look out for Dezzy as he attends club events throughout the year

Field Marshals

• We hope to have a field marshal at each session

• Field marshals wear yellow Kanata Dragons T shirts

• Field marshals will be able to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have about the Kanata Dragons

Coaches

• All our coaches are parents who have volunteered to coach your child's team

• Our coaches have been asked to wear a red Kanata Dragons T shirt so they are easy to spot

• Please assist your child’s coach if asked to do so

Snacks

• It is club policy that coaches do not organize the snack roster

• If your team decide to have snacks then we request that a parent who is not coaching volunteers to organize the snack roster

• Please try to keep the snacks healthy and please no nuts

Inclement weather

• With the exception of lightening, soccer always goes ahead

• We believe that you know your child's tolerance to inclement weather better than we do

• Parents are therefore asked to make their own decision if they wish to attend soccer in inclement weather

• Should a session be cancelled it will not be rescheduled

Parents on game day

• We are not a drop off service

• Parents are expected to stay with their child on game day

• With the under 3 and under 4&5 age groups parents will be required to participate in the drills with their children

• Coaches may ask parents to help in any age group

Richcraft Recreation Centre field

• Each team will play at least 2 of their sessions on the artificial turf field at the Richcraft Recreation Complex

• We will email you in advance when it is your teams time to play on the artificial turf

• Players can cool off after the game in the great splash pad behind the Richcraft Recreation Complex
