Is your child going to be playing soccer for the first time this season? If so, click here to learn all about soccer through the Oakridge Soccer Club!
How we conduct ourselves as parents, players, and coaches is very important. It is NEVER ok to demean a player, disrespect a referee, opponent or opposing fan in any way. The following site has our Respect Campaign codes and are to be followed at all times - RESPECT. Failure to follow said policies will subject you to dismissal from the site and future matches. Don't be THAT parent!
Clubs can also now be fined for cards issued to coaches due to their behavior or the behavior of their fans. We appreciate your cooperation in this matter to keep the game enjoyable to those that are playing it!!

Oakridge Soccer Club Code of Conduct Rules & Policies: OSC By-Laws
- Failure to follow any of the rules below will result in whatever the OSC Board deems a fit punishment ranging from suspension from the next game up to a 1-year ban from all OSC activities.
All players and coaches must be dressed appropriately at any OSC practice or game. This includes Shirts, Shorts, Shin-guards, Socks, and Cleats. Clothing with profanity or inappropriate comments or images is not acceptable. When practicing or at home games please be sure to also abide by our school’s dress code.
Bullying on or off the field at an OSC event will not be tolerated amongst anyone involved with the OSC. This includes parents, players, and coaches.
If you feel your child is being treated unfairly and you feel you cannot speak with the coach about the issue, please file a written statement to the OSC board.
Under no circumstances is a parent allowed to curse, yell, threaten or reprimand a coach, player, or ref at any time.
OSC coaches and board members are all parents who volunteer their time to teach your kids and make sure they are able to play the game. As such they should always be treated with respect and in a civil manner.

FIELD RULES FOR LEAGUE GAMES for PARENTS!
Fans are not to cross the field of play at the conclusion of the match. The bench area is for players and team personnel only.
If fans need to cross to the same side of the field as the team benches to get to the parking lot they must go around the field boundaries and not directly cross the field.
This is to help with safety for our officials and to help speed up the clearing of the bench and technical areas for the next match.
Thank you for your cooperation in getting this message to our teams and coaches.
____________________________________________________________________
Refund Policy: OSC will refund a registration, as stated on our Registration Forms, when the following exists:
1. The player cannot compete due to a medical condition - supported by a Dr. Note
2. The player becomes injured before the season starts and will not return before the end of the season
3. The player's age group is eliminated by the League - GLCSL.
The last instance happens in very rare occasions, typically at the U17 level. In that instance players' parents are offered the option of "playing up" at the U20 level, or a refund of their registration.

Did you know that OSC has a travel soccer program through Grand Valley Soccer Association(GVSA)?
What does that mean?
A travel league is for "select" level soccer. This level involves try-outs, a little bit more travel and a lot more individual player development. It will cost more than the recreational teams, but you will be provided with higher levels of competition and weekly work sessions to improve skills. This will bring a more accessible program for those in our area. Our hope is that instead of playing select at other clubs, we will give our eagles a chance to stay here, and continue to develop and grow together.
What about Rec soccer?
Our recreational program, the program that you have experienced with us WILL NOT CHANGE! We will continue to grow and develop our players and coaches, as we always have. We will continue to look for new ways to give those players and families the best place we can for playing soccer! We hope to help them develop into the kids that are ready for that next level. Having a “Select/ Travel program” will simply help us to expand and give even more players more options at a higher level of competition moving forward.
We are very excited to be providing more opportunity to Oakridge!
