REGARDING CLUB REQUIREMENTS:
To be a Club that is a League of Registration with the ability to register your own players, the Club/League would need to be approved by Cal South. Check with Cal South as to requirements needed (www.calsouth.com). Clubs with 5 or less teams may not be accepted by CSL. Only 3 teams in each age/gender will be accepted per Club and their affiliations. ***Before a NEW Club is accepted for participation in CSL, they must email ksparks1@cox.net to be sure they meet all requirements.

REFEREE RECRUIT REQUIREMENT:
Each Club needs to provide a Referee Recruit willing to go through certification along with $65 for the certification clinic, then join a local association and officiate at least 5 CSL games, or pay a $250 deposit until a recruit can be found. (Clubs with 10 or more teams provide 2 Recruits/$130 or $500 deposit)

REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS:
Cal South's Coaching Credential Requirements:
Coaches Credentials: To COACH a game, start a game, continue a game, the Coach/Administrator MUST have the following....
1. Have gone through a Coaching Clinic for an E License or higher with Cal South.
2. Have done their Risk Management Registration (Live Scan fingerprinting)
2. And have a laminated USYSA/Cal South Coaches/Risk Management Pass registering them to their Club - just like the Player ID Passes that are given to the referee.
***Go to www.calsouth, RISK MANAGEMENT, for revisions and updates.

Administrators Credentials: (For a Team Admin. or any Club Admin.) The Manager/Team Administrator/Club Administrator MUST have...
1. Gone through Risk Management registration (Live Scan fingerprinting)
2. A WHITE laminated USYS/Cal South Administrator/Risk Management Pass registering them to the Team - just like the Player ID Passes that are given to the referee. (***This does NOT allow them to start a game, continue a game, or finish a game)

***If a coach is ejected...the only person that may take over and continue or start a game, is another person with a laminated USYSA Coaches/Risk Management Pass registered to the same Club/League of Registration (which is not CSL, unless CSL registers your players). It is SUGGESTED and ADVISED, but not required, to have at least two people associated with the team that would have this documentation...or a team may get someone else from their Club/League with such documentation to help coach their team if needed. This is to prevent the forfeiture of games for not having the proper credentialed administrator on the sideline at all times.
Go to www.calsouth.com or contact Cal South, if you have any questions regarding Coaching Certification Clinics or Coaching License.
