We hope you enjoyed the holidays, and now it is back to Cosom!
We would like to share some important information as we resume our programs.
Email Communication
- Our Director of Tech Ops has been working hard on trying to improve our leaguewide communication, as we know many of you were not receiving our emails. We are testing a new form of email communication that we hope will improve our correspondence.
- If you continue to have issues or have any other feedback, please contact Alan at techops@rcfha.org

Photo Day – Saturday, January 17th
- Please see the attached document for the Photo Day Schedule
- Photos will take place at Burnett in the small gym. Please arrive 20 minutes early so you and your team are ready to go for your team photo, as Darby runs through everything pretty quickly.
- Please bring your blue jersey for the photo (don’t forget to bring your white jersey if you are the away team on that day). Full-time goalies, you are welcome to wear your green goalie jersey if you choose to.
- As part of Youth registration fees, a team photo and individual photo is provided without extra charge. If you would like to order something extra, Darby Photos will provide an access code to their website, where you can order online. Please remember to get your access code from your team manager or coach on Photo Day if you wish to order anything extra (if you do not wish to order anything extra, you do not need to do anything except show up on Photo Day).
- If you cannot make your team’s exact photo time, you are encouraged to attend photo day for just an individual image. You can do this between the hours of 9am and 10:30am on Jan 17th.
