Good morning everyone!

It is supposed to get windy later today so please bring a weight to hold down your tent.


You CANNOT USE ANCHORING STAKES AS WE ARE ON TURF.

THANK YOU,
Neal

Please share this with your Parents, Coaches, and Players.

Hi Everyone,

I would like to share a soccer book I've written called: "Money Grab $$: A Parents' Guide to American Youth Soccer" It has gotten as high as #3 on Amazon in the Soccer Coaching category.

If you've every wanted a map or guide to know what you will face as a parent new to Recreational Soccer, Competitive, or your player wants to play in college or even become a pro, or adult soccer, this book covers the entire player development lifecycle.

Having lived through the last 50 years of American youth soccer history as a player, Coach, Referee, Professional Goalkeeper in the original Major Indoor Soccer League, College Head Coach, High School Head Coach, Club Coach, and Club President, saw Pele come to play in America and more. Just like today when Messi came to America to everyone's delight! We didn't even have Club Soccer. High School was all there was available!

This book also teaches you all of the FUNdamental skills a player needs to be successful at any age, how to play as a team and what costs are associated with soccer make sense to spend on and those that don't.

Here is the book's link on amazon to copy into your browser:https://www.amazon.com/Money-Grab-Parents-American-Soccer-ebook/dp/B0B9T79LMG/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&dib_tag=se&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.cC-81Vgh1tXEOzM0RjbiWXiE3-hSyhN2Y5bUJRdVdUT-tZG9s1eITmc2gKK67FUwpfhwVNywdwHFjxDW1Twj_DvpJGoVFZODrArPhwuxwUtzjnzCr8_jQXafI0ObCGDhOVjwL6oMJUUJjO31oyy9kfq8DklMjfH2Ej10LazYHRP4PGJ-e0FUbOpWQ6bzAV25aLYZAGG-pVKgBrTW8GCgrw.gmsrv_o53KfcssVmBjILfarAVJT7L5rK8CfQ6X82hWo&qid=1710632762&sr=8-1

IMPORTANT: PLEASE SHARE WITH YOUR PARENTS



We want to remind everyone of our zero tolerance policy for referee abuse at 5v5 Soccer. As we aim to create a positive and fun tournament, it is crucial that we maintain a supportive sideline environment. While competition is part of the game, let's remember to be respectful and encouraging. Referees play a vital role in ensuring fair play, and we must treat them with respect.




PLEASE REMEMBER TO:

‣ Encourage positive behavior
‣ Cheer and support without aggression
‣ Communicate with respect
‣ Focus on player development





By following these guidelines, we can create a safe and inclusive atmosphere for everyone involved. This should extend to how we treat all team supporters, coaches, staff members, players on both teams and our officials.






A FEW POINTS OF EMPHASIS ON THE 5V5 SOCCER RULES



Touchline (Sideline) Restarts: In place of throw-ins will be kick-ins OR a dribble in with the ball placed stationary on the touchline. A player may not directly kick a ball into the goal from its stationary restart position. A player may dribble the ball into play and after the ball makes a full rotation may then be kicked into the goal. Kick-ins will be treated as indirect kicks until dribbled.




Direct Restarts: A Corner Kick and Kickoff are Direct Kicks. The kick-off may go in any direction.




Goal Kick: Any time a Goal Kick is required, the goalkeeper will execute a Goal Clearance (ball must leave the Penalty Arc). The goalkeeper will start with the ball in their hands and may either (1) Throw or roll the ball, (2) Put the ball down and pass/kick, (3) put the ball down and dribble out of the Penalty Arc.



Once the ball has been put down, the ball is effectively “live”, meaning defending players may enter the penalty arc. The goalkeeper must release the ball within four seconds. Failure to execute the Goal Clearance within 4 seconds will result in an Indirect kick at the top of the arc for the opposition. A goal may not be scored directly from a goal clearance. Once the ball is OUTSIDE the Penalty Arc, a goal may be scored from anywhere on the field. The ball may not be punted or drop-kicked. Infractions will result in an Indirect Kick at the top of the arc for the opposition.

Thank you for making 5v5 Soccer a great experience. Let's celebrate the joy of the game and promote sportsmanship together!




Best regards!

Andrew Vorce

President 5v5 Soccer

Thank you!

Hi Everyone,

For those of you joining us, welcome!

Schedules are posted here:

https://soccer.exposureevents.com/260614/5v5-apollo-beach-fl/schedule

Thank you for registering for this Sunday’s 5v5 Soccer Tournament in Apollo Beach, FL: February 22, 2026. My name is Neal and I will be your Tournament Director. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact me via email at neal@5v5soccer.com, and I will respond as soon as possible.

If your team has not paid yet and has not communicated with our staff, your team will be dropped from the event the morning of the day prior to the event.

As you can see, it was necessary to combine divisions. For more information on division breakdowns, visit https://5v5soccer.com/divisions


The tournament will be held at SouthShore Sports Complex
6110 Waterset Blvd
Apollo Beach, FL 33572



• Team Rosters & Player Waivers must be completed through the new Exposure process no later than one day prior to the event.

With the new process, there is not currently a place to upload a proof of age so we are asking that everyone bring their proof of age with them to the event Check-In.

The old process did not allow for coaches to view who had submitted player waivers or proof of age. The new process will allow coaches to view who has completed the player waivers and who hasn't. It will also allow the coaches (or event directors) to resend the request to parents. Please be sure all of your players are added to your roster through Exposure, if you haven't done so already. By adding a player to the roster, the parent will automatically be sent the email for the waiver. Please note, the new process will not allow for coaches to view any submissions that were done using the old process.

• Check-in: One Team Representative must arrive 30 minutes before their first scheduled game to check in.

See you Sunday!!
