Return to Competition Protocols
For Fall 2020 U9-U14 play: please read the TCSL Return to Competition Protocol for more information about league play this fall. There is an excellent TCSL summary of safety plan for Fall 2020 HERE.
Specifics for ESC can be found on the Fall 2020 page of our website.
We encourage you to read COVID-19 Sports Guidance for Youth and Adults document from the Minnesota Department of Health
You can also read the TCSL and MYSA Return to Play documents, both updated as of June 22, 2020.
Even more! Here's a great timeline of return to play for youth sports from the MN Dept of Health and MSHSL: specifically about a gradual return to play between clubs/communities beginning in late July 2020.

Referees Needed!
We are excited to plan for the Fall 2020 TCSL League season, which is underway!
In order to assure that there is a full crew assigned to every match for our soccer club, we need more referees. Adults: this is a great way to spend time with your kids while making money!
The Minnesota State Referee Committee has made some changes to the new referee process:
- All new referee requirements can be completed ONLINE at MinnesotaSRC.com
- There is no in-person clinic!
- You can complete the process at your own pace, all online.
- New Referee certification is good all the way through December 31, 2021 (as is any certification done earlier in 2020).
You can earn anywhere between $25-$70 a game.
Refereeing is a great way to stay active and involved in the game.
If you have any questions, please contact either Bill Garner or Tyler Dalsin, ESC's representatives at MAT Assigning, and/or visit ESC's Referee webpage.

ESC Implements Zero Tolerance Policy on Referee Abuse
This policy has been developed to address the growing (and unfortunate) trend of referee abuse in youth sports, in general, and youth soccer, in particular. Our policy, as set forth in the document below, is simple: Any physical or verbal abuse of referees is as unacceptable as physical or verbal abuse of players. It is never acceptable for spectators to criticize referees, verbally or otherwise, at an ESC event.
See the link below to view the new policy in it's entirety.
