MNJYSA Registration Instructions

1.	Please read each step carefully prior to completing each form or item of paperwork. All of the paperwork is carefully reviewed by a League official. Paperwork will be easily rejected if it does not meet the specifications. Your child's first and last name must be consistent throughout all of the paperwork. For example, if his first name is Robert, use either Robert or Bobby throughout. Do not use both forms of the name.

2.	Locate and make a photocopy of your child's birth certificate.

3.	Locate or cut-out a 1" x 1", high-quality, color photograph of a head-shot of your child. Write your child's full name on the back of the photo. The photo will be used on your child's state player pass. Note that the league will reject any low-quality, home-printed photos. Please do not bring us larger photos that need to be cut out; cut them to size yourself.

4.	Use a paper clip to secure the photo to the front of the birth certificate and set them aside for now. Do not use staples on any of the paperwork.

5.	The following forms are in Adobe Acrobat (.pdf) format. In order to open and print the forms, you must have a recent copy of Adobe Acrobat on your machine. If you do not already have Adobe Acrobat installed, you can get this free software by clicking the following icon:

6.	Print and fill-out the Player Membership Form. Leave the following fields blank: League, League #, Club, Club #, Team #, Player Pass # and Age. We will fill those in for you. Be sure to fill out the bottom section where you print and sign your names and provide the date signed.

6a.	ADDS and TRANSFERS ONLY Only perform this step if you are being added or transferred to a team after regular season registration has closed. If you are preparing paperwork for the regular season registration (which occurs in August for most teams), then you do not have to perform this step. Print and fill-out only the fields specified below on the Player/Coach Add or Transfer Form. Only fill out these fields: Name, Date of Birth, Gender, Added Player/Coach signature and Date. Leave the rest blank and contact the club's director of registration to arrange an appointment to have a player/coach pass filled out and to help you complete this form. When you have completed this form with the registration director, and only after he/she fills in the missing information, you will need to make 3 additional copies before delivering the paperwork to the league.

7.	Print and fill-out the Medical Release Form. Do not sign and date this form until you are with a Notary Public. Forms that do not have consistent dates will be rejected by the League. We hope to have a notary public present at the Registration Night. Forms can also usually be notarized at your personal bank by a notary.

8.	Print and fill-out the S.A.G.E. Form There are four slots for signatures at the bottom of the form. Be sure that you and your child both sign the form, leaving two slots empty.

9.	If you are not a coach, assistant coach or team manager, skip to step #12.

10.	If you are a team's head-coach, assistant coach or team manager, print and fill-out a KidSafe Disclosure Form. Also, if you are new to coaching in Metuchen Travel Soccer Club, print and fill out a MTSC Secure Player Contract Form.

11.	Coach/Assistant Coach League Paperwork Photocopy of your state coaching license 1" by 1" color, high-quality head-shot photo (photo paper only) Coach Membership Form.

12.	Review all paperwork for correctness and completeness. Missing or incorrect information can result in your child being unable to play in a pre-season tournament, or not being registered in time for the first game. Then use a paper clip (remember, no staples) to secure all completed forms together with the photo and birth certificate on top.

13.	Bring the packet of forms with you when you come to registration night. Remember to also bring your checkbook to registration night. Your child will not be registered with the league until we receive both the registration and unifo9rm checks.

14.	If you cannot make either the Registration Night or the two office hour nights at the Registration director's house (along with your child), deliver the packet to your head coach or team manager so that they can submit them. Please note that you will have to arrange a time to have your child sign the player pass with your coach and/or team manager.
