CCYS Club Soccer Parent Survey
In January we shared the news that CCYS is planning to launch a club soccer program starting in the Fall of 2018. The purpose of this effort is to provide additional training and competition for those who want more, while enhancing the CCYS experience for all, by adding professional coaching staff. We believe we can provide a program with similar player development potential as nearby soccer clubs, while requiring less travel to training and games, and enabling players to play with their friends in Concord-Carlisle. As a not-for-profit, Concord-Carlisle Football Academy (CCFA) can provide club level training at a significantly lower cost to families than out of town clubs, which can cost $2500+ annually. This initiative is being led by CCYS professional coach Kyle Yelin.
Since the word got out, we have received a lot of feedback. And while we have been planning to start with 5th and 6th graders in the 2018/2019 school year (current 4th and 5th graders), we are interested in hearing more from the CCYS community to help determine program details, such as which age groups we will focus on for the 2018/2019 seasons.
We are interested in hearing from a cross section of current and prior CCYS families. So we ask that you kindly respond to this 12 question survey at your earliest convenience. We thank you for your feedback.
