The Kittyhawk tournament winners within each division will have the opportunity to then compete in The Ohio Area State Tournament (TOAST) located near Cincinnati, typically in Mid November.

Fees
Fees are $95 per player for the season. The fee includes jersey, shorts, and socks. A late fee of $20 per player will be assessed for registrations after July 21.
In order to keep our costs down please considering volunteering.

A late fee of $20 per player will be assessed for registration

Enon SAY Soccer is a volunteer run organization. We depend on parents to volunteer with our organization so that we can continue to provide the high quality program we have offered since our inception.

A non-volunteer fee of $20 per account will be added during registration. The fee will not be assessed if you choose to volunteer.

If you would like to coach or volunteer, register as a parent when creating an account. Then add your player(s) to the profile. You may then select if you would like to Head coach, Assistant coach, or Volunteer for concessions in the volunteer section of the registration.

Two divisions will be available to your child during registration. The first is the "Normal" division they would typically be placed in based on their year of birth. The second is for children who are "Advanced" players wishing to "play up" a division.

Please note there are NO PLAYER REQUESTS PERMITTED.

- Volunteer Head Coaches may request ONE Assistant Coach.
- Assistant Coaches may request a Head Coach, but this request is not guaranteed.
- Siblings in the SAME division may request to be on the same team.

Team Rosters are automatically drawn and overseen by the Kittyhawk Area SAY Organization.
