Step One: Online Registration

Online registration is encouraged before attending an in-person registration date. Please create an account if you do not already have one with the Community Grassroots Soccer Association.

During this step, you will:

• Register for an account in CGSA’s RAMP InterActive, or log in with an existing one (if used for previous seasons)
• Input information about your player(s) for the season
• Express interest in coaching opportunities

NOTE: Members of other communities can only register with Delwood if they do NOT have CGSA in their own community.

Visit Delwood Hall to finish your registration on only one of the dates below. This step is mandatory. Please bring:

• Your player’s Alberta Healthcare Card
• Cash, cheque, debit or credit payment for registration cost and volunteer deposit ($200) per player

During this step, you will:

• Finalize registration details submitted online
• Provide proof of Community League Membership (or purchase one)

Step Three: Team Assignment and Uniform Pickup

Once registration is complete, each player will be assigned a team to play on. In some limited cases, players may need to be transferred to other communities with available space.

Once teams have been assigned, players will have an opportunity to pick up their uniforms and meet the rest of their team. Please bring:

• Your player(s) to be sized for a jersey
• Cash, cheque, debit or credit payment for the uniform deposit ($75) per player

During this step, you will:

U5 and U7 players are sponsored by Timbits Soccer and can keep their jersey after the season ends. They will also receive shorts, socks, a soccer ball and a medal for free.

U9 – U17 players are required to return their jersey and any borrowed shorts at the end of the season.

Uniform Pickup Date

Date	Time
Friday, October 10	7:00 – 8:00 PM

Step Four: Play the Season

The indoor soccer season will run from late October 2025 to late February 2026. All teams will be notified of their schedule by mid October.

Games will be held on Friday evenings, Saturdays and Sundays at three indoor soccer facilities: Dow Centennial Centre, Servus Place or Millennium Place. Note that these facilities are still subject to change.

U9 teams and older will participate in a minimum of 7 practices during the season, scheduled by coaches.

Step Five: Uniform Return

Once the season has come to a close in late February, U9 – U17 players will be asked to return their Delwood jerseys. There will be a uniform return date.

At this date, you will:

• Return your player’s uniform
• Receive your returned $75 uniform deposit

Uniform Return Date

Date	Time
Sunday, March 15	6:30 – 8:00 PM
