 We have a new photographic company this season, SportsWest Photography.  They are offering, on line ordering for your photo packages.  GBYSL will be supplying each player with a 5X7 team photo and an individual photo in a memory mate frame. Every player must fill out a form for this photo even if they are not ordering any additional photos. Please have your child bring their order form to the field filled out in advance. You may place additional orders online by following this link or the traditional paper order envelopes will be handed out the week of March 15. You may just go online to look at the price lists and familiarize yourself with the product choices. You may order online using a credit card, credit cards are not an option using the paper order envelopes. All orders must be paid for in advance. If you purchase online you will get a print out of the order which your player will bring to the field the day of the photo shoot. Please if you are using the paper order form please have your check or cash sealed inside the envelope.

Starting Spring 2010 teams U8 and above will be gender specific. We have researched this and felt this is the appropriate time for the change.  We spoke to over a dozen leagues throughout the country, US Youth Soccer Association, Nevada Youth Soccer Association and various district school officials.  There is a difference in how boys and girls play and all of the experts felt the appropriate age is U8.
