TEAM REGISTRATION
Recreation programs are not required to submit teams to NJYS. However, should a recreation program participate in an NJYS member recreation league, team submission may be required.
PLAYER REGISTRATION
Submit Player Information to NJYS Platform
Every player, regardless of a new or returning status, must have a new application (i.e., registration) submitted for them each year. This can occur through the upload portal by completing the upload player template with updated information for the player, through the Sports Connect club platform, or by manual entry (only recommended for less than 15 players).
COACH REGISTRATION
Register Coaches (Submit SafeSport, Concussion Certificates, & Background Check)
All adults applying as a recreation member (i.e. recreation coach) must submit the appropriate compliance documents to NJ Youth Soccer via the coach’s Sports Connect account for verification (if not previously verified). See the compliance requirements below:
Concussion Education (No Expiration Date)
SafeSport Training (Annual Requirement - Completion Date after June 1st, 2021 or completion of Refresher 4)
All adults applying as a recreation member (i.e. recreation coach) must also clear a background check. Coaches can submit through NJYS for a background check. For organizations that conduct their own background checks, the organization must complete a "Certification of Criminal Background Screening Compliance for Recreational Youth Coaches."
