Payment and birth certificate copies can be mailed to: Camas Washougal Soccer Club, PO Box 981, Camas WA 98607

• Does my child have to try-out?  Try-outs are held for players age 10 and older wishing to play at an advanced level of competition. These teams are "select" teams and only play other "select" teams in our district.  All other teams are recreational teams, players are assigned based on last year's team, team request, and sign-up date.
   

• Can my child keep the same coach he/she had last year?  All returning players are guaranteed a spot on their last year's team if they sign up by June 15th.  After June 15, players are assigned to a team according to sign-up date.

• What do I do if I am having trouble registering through cwsoccer.com?  If you are having trouble accessing your registration account it is probably because your e-mail address or phone number has changed in the last year.  Please go to cwsoccer.com and contact the appropriate registrar stating in your message the trouble you are having, your name and your child’s name, your telephone number and your new e-mail address.  The registrars will update your account and then e-mail you your username and password.

• My neighbor does not have access to a computer, or their computer is not working, can I register their child from my account?  Please do not do this, it messes up the data base and makes it difficult for coaches to contact players!  If someone is having trouble registering please have them leave a message on the soccer line at 834-6292 or e-mail one of the registrars for them stating the name of the person having difficulties and their phone number.  The registrars will get in contact with them.
   

• Who do I contact if I need additional answers?  Contact the appropriate registrar if you have more questions.  Claudia, girlsreg@cwsoccer.com, or Eric, boysreg@cwsoccer.com .
