2010 Coach Applications

*** GDRS HEAT POLICY ***

When the temperature at any point in the day of play is registered as being above 30 degrees Celsius as recorded on Environment Canada's website (http://www.weatheroffice.gc.ca/city/pages/on-118_metric_e.html), the Dragons heat policy will come into effect.

Heat Policy

When the temperature reaches above 30 degrees Celsius there will automatically be two water breaks per half. Games and practices will continue as scheduled. Coaches are to monitor players for signs of heat stress or injury. The Dragon's Board reserves the right to cancel soccer activities based on extenuating circumstances and/or explicit weather warnings as posted on Environment Canada's web site.
 
Air Quality Policy

 
If the air quality rating is forecast on the Environment Canada web site at 7 or above at game/practice time, soccer activities will be cancelled. The forecast review will be conducted by the Dragons Executive and coaches will be notified by the office and via the web site of any cancellation.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you are playing at the Potvin Fields, you MUST use the parking lot off Canotek Road - see attached map. The City will be ticketing those of you who are parked at the arena but are playing on the Potvin Fields. ALSO, please do not use any "designated" spots in the business park, our neighbours do not appreciate their parking spots being used and will be monitoring this more closely this year.

Game Reporting Procedures: Youth Games Only

Please review Law 4 of the Ontario Soccer Association. Players may not wear any kind of jewelry on the soccer field.
