Player Move up and Move Downs

 Player Move up and Player move down Requests!

Player Move Down:

Alberta Soccer Association requires players to play in their division as per their birth year.

All requests for playdown must be approved by the district’s board of directors.

If a player is requesting a move-down, a physician’s letter that clearly states a physical or mental impairment diagnosis that they are receiving treatment for and supports the downward movement request must accompany the Player Movement Request form.

The player movement request will be submitted online, and the physician’s letter will be emailed to info@fortsasksoccer.ca.

These will be sent to the district board of directors via our zone for review and approval. All requests will be reviewed after registration closes.

Move Up!

Player Movement requests will be considered only after all players of the proper age have been registered.

All requests must be on a Player Movement Request form which can be accessed from the FSS website and must be received by the FSS sport coordinator prior to the close of registration.

As per EMSA rules we only move up players that are one birth year younger than the age level the player is requesting to play in.

It is Fort Saskatchewan Soccer’s practice to try and keep all players playing at the age level they belong to. This is for the growth and development of the players. Players must play in their appropriate age group unless our Technical Committee along with the program director determines exceptional circumstances, that may allow the player to compete at a higher age level.
