The Alton Rec Soccer Player of the Week for Week 3 goes to AYDEN PORTER of Alton Country Store's 5/6 Stanley.

Coach Casale says 
Ayden has been working at goalie off and on for a few years. This year he’s been starting on the 5/6 team and has been doing a great job. This weekend he had 3 or 4 amazing stops on hard shot balls. Ayden only had 1 ball get by him all day and he nearly stopped it by diving and getting a hand in it. The ball just has enough to roll into the net after his attempt. Great job Ayden.

Congratulations Ayden! You will receive an exclusive player of the week t-shirt from your coach!

The Barnstead Rec Soccer Player of the Week for Week 3 goes to SPENCER RUSSO of Pike Industries 1/2 Sheets.

Coach Sheets says 
Spencer is an amazing soccer player. Week after week he comes to the games ready to play and with a passion to play soccer. This past Saturday, he scored a few goals for his team while playing offense and also saving a few goals playing goalie. He is a competitive soccer player already at this age and we look forward to watching him get even better at the next games.

Congratulations Spencer! You will receive an exclusive player of the week t-shirt from your coach!

The Alton Rec Soccer Player of the Week for Week 2 goes to KENDALL OSMER of Dawnland Auto Glass 3/4 Casale.

Kendall has been a strong player for us all season. This week she played both offense and defense. She played in any position she was asked to and did them all very well. Good job Kendall.

Congratulations Kendall! You will receive an exclusive player of the week t-shirt from your coach!

As we have all seen recently, the increase in COVID-19 positive cases within our community have been rising once again and we need to do our part to ensure players, coaches and families remain safe at the fields. Effective immediately, all players are required to utilize the RSVP function within their sportsengine account. This function works as our contract tracing system in case we need to go back to games or practices after hearing about a positive case. If you need a reminder on how to RSVP, please visit this article https://help.sportsengine.com/en/articles/822-how-do-i-rsvp-to-a-game-or-event

Additionally, players should not be participating in after game handshakes with the opposing teams. Players should refrain from sharing water bottles at practices and games, and players are encouraged to use hand sanitizer before and after practices and games.

If your player has a fever or any potential symptoms of COVID19, please keep them home from their practice or game. It is extremely important to not potentially continue the spread of COVID19 within our teams and communities. 

Coaches have all received COVID19 protocols and in cases where needed, games or practices will be cancelled as required. We are all doing our best to beat this, from our volunteers to our parents and the players who want to be out on the field each week, please continue to follow these request so we can all remain on the soccer fields this season. 

Thank you for your attention and understanding to this important reminder!
