Winter Indoor Soccer League 2013
Welcome to the 28th annual Winter Indoor Soccer League. We look forward to providing a fun, exciting, skill- building season of indoor soccer!
For 27 years, the Winter Indoor Soccer League (WISL) has provided Marin County youth soccer players with an exciting and fulfilling soccer experience during the winter months. Players from ages 4-18 are given the opportunity to continue (or begin) their participation in the beautiful sport of soccer in a supportive, inclusive format, and to develop the skills, game awareness, and team spirit that they can then carry over to their outdoor soccer play.

REGISTRATION
Players can register as a confirmed team member, or as an individual. Individuals will be placed on a team.
FEE: $170 per player, by Dec. 7th.
No sibling discount. After Dec. 7, a late fee of $25 per player is applied. Late registrations will be accepted until Dec. 14. Thereafter, interested players will be placed on the Wait List and included as space is available. The entire Wait List registration fee will be returned if we cannot place your child, (most waited listed players will be placed on teams).
REFUND POLICY:
Written requests for refunds must be received by email by January 4, 2013. There is a $40 per player non-refundable administrative fee for all refunds. After the program has started, only credit vouchers will be issued. You must have this voucher (hard copy, original only) to use credit; please email or call to obtain one.
PLEASE NOTE: WISL fills to capacity each year. Players will be accepted on a first come, first serve basis. All signups received after the registration deadline will be automatically placed on a waiting list and included on a space-available basis.
Team Signups
A team consists of 9-10 players. We recommend that a team have no more than 10 players in order to assure adequate playing time for each team member. However, this is not a mandatory limit. Players may register as members of a team by designating their coach’s name on the registration form. Coaches must submit a roster of their players and a team name.
Individual Signups
Players registering as individuals will be combined to form teams of comparable level for league play. However, we encourage parents to consider organizing a group of 9-10 players and entering as a team. Even if you have 4-5 players, you can start a team and we can add from our individual-registrant list to complete the roster. A coach and/or team parent is required for each team. The time commitment is 1 to 2 hours per weekend game only. No prior coaching experience is necessary.
We will provide information and assistance as needed. Whenever possible, requests for teammates will be honored.

Divisions
The WISL offers an exciting series of games scheduled with awareness of the diverse playing levels and experience of its participants. Divisions are organized within age groups based on a combination of factors, including teams' and individuals' scheduling needs, (anticipated) skill level, and (when possible) geographical convenience.
Equipment
Players wear T-shirts, soccer shorts or sweatpants, and tennis shoes (w/ non-marking soles). Shinguards are not mandatory, but are strongly recommended. Special indoor soccer shoes are available at soccer stores. Goalkeepers may use goalie gloves and/or knee pads (we do not provide either). WISL provides balls, scrimmage vests, goals, and first-aid equipment. The ball is soft, felt-covered. Coaches wishing to purchase their own ball may do so at soccer-supply stores. However, to avoid mix-ups, we ask that coaches not bring their own indoor ball(s) to the games.
WISL Sites
Marin WISL games are scheduled at locations throughout Marin County. Facility availability is limited and size of facilities varies (i.e., smaller gyms may not be suitable for older groups, etc.); participants cannot be guaranteed play at the nearest site (see FAQ page for more details).
