MSA Spring Season Update
Spring is here and we're ready for some soccer with you and your families. Unfortunately, we're dealing with something out of our control this season. Due to the impacts of Covid-19 we have decided it's in the best interest of everyone's safety that we push the start of the season back a few weeks. We're hopeful this will soon pass and we can enjoy time together watching the kids play soccer. Following is our revised timeline.
May 4th - Practices Start
May 9th - 1st Game Day
As we get closer to the start of the season and, gain a better understanding of the full impact of this situation, we will certainly provide further updates. Until then, please understand we truly don't have anything further decided, however we will be considering our options and notifying everyone as we get closer to May 9th.
We hope that you are all safe and healthy.
