All Parents

Since you are already here, you have found the right place.  Bookmark our home page at melroseyouthsoccer.org.  This is your new starting point for everything Melrose Youth Soccer.  It even supports Google Translate (see the icon in the header) if you need to swap from English to some other language.

To login to the site, you will need a new account in this new registration system.  You can start that process easily using the REGISTER in the banner above.  You will need to enter all of the usual information appropriate for a new account.  Note that if you have created an account using a SportsConnect site for another organization (such as Mass Youth Soccer or as Melrose Rec Department), SportsConnect may transfer some of that information over to your Melrose account which might skip some initial steps setting up your account. 

After you have a working account on this site, you can LOGIN using the button in the banner and switch to your account (if you aren't there already) with the "MY ACCOUNT" button.  You can manage your existing info on that page and chose to Volunteer or find a link to your child's team page if they have been assigned to a team. 

Under each player listed in the account, you'll see text for any program in which they have been registered.  The first section of the text will show the program in which they are registered.  The second section will show the grade grouping.  And after they have been assigned to a team, you'll see that in the third section of the text.   

If you add a player in the future, you can do so using the very subtle "..." button on the main My Account page to the right of the word "Participants". 


Adding an Adult

Our SportsConnect accounts start with a primary account holder, the parent, managing the account and adding child players to the account.  You may also want to add a spouse/partner/caregiver to your account so they get updates about the players too.  To add an Additional User account to an existing Primary account, use the gear icon on the My Account page and scroll to the bottom to find the plus sign for adding an Additional Account Holder.  Enter the adult information there and that e-mail address will receive an invitation.  That adult should then click on the e-mailed invitation to accept the account and then they will be able to log in to SportsConnect too.   

Do not have that second adult start by adding their own account to the system.  Once that is done, the adult can't be added to an existing account (we have that in as an enhancement request).  If you find that you have two active accounts where one account can see things that the other can't, send a message to [email protected] with the two adult names that should be merged.  And for security reasons, both adults with accounts will need to give their okay to have the accounts merged.  


Volunteering to Coach

Our organization is 100% volunteer run and that includes our coaches.  For most roles, coaching requires very little soccer knowledge and we will help you learn what you will need to do to coach.  

If you have not yet volunteered for a coaching role or team parent role, you can do so from the My Account view.  Use the Volunteer link in the left navigation bar and then click on Find Volunteer Roles.  You can add a volunteer role for yourself or for a secondary user or the secondary user can volunteer themselves. 


Travel League Parents

The travel schedule is publicly available to everyone at https://myslfall24.sportsaffinity.com.  Parents can go there and either search by team name or select the “Flight” (grade and division) of your team and then look in the schedule.  It shows the field location and has a link to a map.  All of the info that parents used in Middlesex’s former SportsManager system is visible here through the other tabs on the top.
