GAMES

We play during the season against other homeschool programs and local school teams, mostly private schools.  It is a competitive season and play time is not guaranteed.   You can expect to have a couple games a week.  Players will be expected to arrive 30 minutes early for all games to provide ample warmup time.  Home Matches are at Schoolcraft in Livonia.

PARENT VOLUNTEERS

‍Firebird Soccer is a volunteer-run organization, including all coaches, directors, and admins.  With that said, we cannot run without additional volunteers!  All Firebird Soccer families are asked to volunteer in some capacity throughout the season.  Discussion and expectations regarding volunteering will happen at the Parent Meeting at the start of the season with a sign-up being sent out shortly after. Some examples of volunteer positions are team photographer, fundraiser, banquet coordinator, spirit night coordinator, and more.

SPORTSMANSHIP

All players and parents are expected to conduct themselves in an appropriate manner on and off the field. When attending sporting events, you are representing your team, the Firebird organization, and most importantly Christ. Poor sportsmanship on or off the field will not be tolerated.
