On Monday, February 28th, Eleftheria Pancyprian Soccer Club hosted the Spring 2022 updates zoom call for parents. Hosted by EPSC Directors Billy Antoniou and Paul Kontonis, the meeting recapped the Winter updates and provided information about for the upcoming spring season.

The EPSC Board of Director kicked off the meeting with a note to all the parents and players:

We hope that 2022 will be a great year filled with health, happiness and soccer!  Our focus is to build a well rounded soccer program that gives every one of our young players the tools necessary to be successful in life.

- Community and family first
- Consistent and positive environment
- Develop the player and the person
- Structured player pathway from “playground to professional”
- A long term vision
- Passionate and patient
- Encouraging and rewarding hard work

Highlighted takeaways from the meeting included:

• The announcement of new coaches: U14 Coach Josefina Velez Tirado, U10 Coach Juan Dominguez, with U12 and U13 coaches to be named soon.

• TeamSnap is your most important source for all scheduling information and communications.

• Spring practices start March 17; 3 practices a week for U9+ with weekly SAQ and goalie trainings. All schedules will be updated in TeamSnap as soon as the spring season schedules are finalized with the league.

• Spring season games start as early as March 12 and will be played at St. Michael’s Playground and Astoria Park.

• Every player must have on the correct Capelli Sport uniform for practice and games. Here is the link to our team store.

• We are a development club focused on challenging our players and competing in every game. Many teams are going up a division in the spring.

• Zero tolerance for referee abuse at games from players, parents, managers and coaches, and parents must refrain from yelling instructions out to their child during the game. The only instruction should come from the coach.

Thank you to the Board of Directors for their incredible support. Thank you to the Managers for their continued commitment to make sure every runs smoothly and to all our parents and players for believing in our vision. We are all working together to create a great environment for the kids.
