Guest Player Pass policy in effect for the Spring 2022 season
The program is limited to G4, G6, and G8 age groups only. The Guest Player Pass is not permitted for High School games this spring. Visit the Guest Player Pass Program / Coach Credentials page to see the details of the program, and to view a summary of what credentials a coach needs to present and wear at the game.

IMPORTANT - Reminder about our Game Reporting !!
ECYSA is REQUIRING that you enter your game reports no later than 9:00 PM of the day after your assignment, whether the game was played to completion or abandoned. Failure to do so may result in a $5 deduction from your pay for that game.
