Travel, intertown, and U9/U10 in-house coaches - Sometimes it makes it exciting and fun when players see their names in the papers after the hard work they've put into a game. Parents like it too. The two local papers in our area are the Poughkeepsie Journal and the Voice Ledger, both of which have printed scores and pictures from the BYSC in the past. The Poughkeepsie Journal has typically published results and interest articles regarding youth soccer in the Players section on Thursday. The Voice Ledger is delivered weekly on Thursdays (to my house anyway).

The easiest way to have a score published from your game is using e-mail. You can e-mail the score directly to the Poughkeepsie Journal and the Voice Ledger. But if you e-mail it to Kate Sprague (unicornkate@frontiernet.net) from the BYSC communications committee, she'll check it over and merge it with other scores so they can be sent in together. We'll also record it here on the website if you send it that way.

Include the score, the opposing team, goaltender, scorers, and if you wish, assists and up to 3 other key players’ names. They need to be sent in by Sunday to get published in the Thursday papers.

Also, if someone takes an eye-catching (typically - action) digital picture we’ll email that and it might get published too. Email photos to the secretary of the BYSC and I'll put them on the website if you want.

To help the coach, designate a team parent to do all this.

Thanks to Kate once again for getting the scores in for the past few seasons!

This web site's for you - I expect to have pages for the in-house, intertown and travel teams, with links that can be followed to the individual teams. For now though, if you have a photo of your team (not a photo taken professionally with a copyright) in digital format or an actual photo (I'll be glad to scan it) I'll post it on the web for your team. If you want me to list the members of your team, I can do that, but for security (risk management) reasons, I won't put the names of the players on your team on the web site in a way that relates faces to names. If you create a web page of your own using a service like eteamz.com, let me know the location and I'll put a link from here to there.
BYSC Coaches and Directors Manual - A PDF version of the Beekman Youth Soccer Club Coaches and Directors Manual is available here. It has been revised twice and so far addresses how travel tryouts are to be conducted, since they're coming up. Sections for in-house and intertown coaches haven't been written yet.
