SOCCER PARENT HOW-TOs:
Account creation (UPDATED – 2021)
Register your child for soccer (UPDATED - 2021)
This Soccer Parent How-To document was created to help new soccer parents create an account and register their player(s) on our new Mobile First online registration platform powered by Sports Connect.
For returning players/parents, this document will show you how to register players in the new system. You can now complete the entire process on a mobile device! Don’t worry, you won’t need a new account if you used our Blue Somberero site for a previous season. As always, if you have any problems, don’t hesitate to reach out to us at [email protected]
