SPRING TRAVEL DIRECT LINK TO TEAM COMMITMENTS 

LIST OF TEAMS ALREADY COMMITTED FOR SPRING TRAVEL AND THE DIVISIONS REQUESTING

When you enter the Team Commitments, you will be asked to add a team.  It will be easier if you create teams first in your team section, so then when asked in the Team Commitment Form section you can easily chose the team you are submitting. (you do not need players on the roster and have time to add them).  

HOW TO NAME THE TEAM: :  Club name, Age Group, Gender, (team name if they have one) Division 

This is for ease identification for team placements and game day match cards

MAKE SURE YOUR REPORT YOUR FIELDS BEING USED IN THE SPRING SEASON ON YOUR COMMITMENT FORM IN GOTSPORT. 

AVOID DOUBLE BOOKED GAMES AND FIELD THAT DON'T EXIST.  CDYSL DOES NOT KNOW ALL YOUR FIELDS, ADDRESSES, AND WHICH TEAMS ARE PLAYING ON THEM. 

THIS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT INFORMATION.
