We wanted to send out a few reminders to make sure that everyone is in the know. All games will be played at Den Harder Soccer Complex (formerly Crossroads Park), located at 6600 Research Loop, Temple, TX 76502. Please be sure to check the schedule on the website, www.centexstorm.com, for game times and fields. All players need to wear cleats and
have their shin guards under their socks.


1) This weekend’s games are a great opportunity for our coaches to learn more about their team and can teach their players the great game of soccer. While it can be tempting to coach your child from the sideline, please leave that job to your coach. We want this to be a positive experience for our players so please encourage and cheer for them!


2)  Weather. We are closely monitoring tomorrow’s weather forecast. At this time, we are planning to play as scheduled. We do play in rain. We will clear the fields if lightning strikes within 10 miles and will stay off for 30 minutes after the last strike within that radius. If that happens, game times and lengths could be changed. If there are any changes or field closings, we will let everyone know by 7:30 AM through your coach, our website, and social media.

3) No Referee Abuse. Yelling and harassing our referees will not be tolerated. There is absolutely no reason to speak to the referees. If this happens, you will be asked to leave the field and will be subject to our Disciplinary Committee. If an issue arises that needs to be addressed, please talk to your coach after the game.


4) Leave your dogs at home. While dogs are allowed at the Pepper Creek Trail and on the frisbee disk golf course, they are not allowed at the athletic facilities, not even the friendly ones. If you still choose to bring your dog, you will be asked to leave it in your car or take it home.


Please remember the goal of recreational soccer is to have FUN!!! We look forward to seeing
everyone this weekend.  We really appreciate you being a part of the Centex Storm family. If
you have any questions, please email me at registrar@centexstorm.com.

Spring 2025 – Organizing teams https://centexstorm.com/spring-2025-organizing-teams/ https://centexstorm.com/spring-2025-organizing-teams/#respond Fri, 14 Feb 2025 14:33:47 +0000 https://centexstorm.com/?p=2272 < Back to Recreational Info Hub

Thank you to all the families who have registered to coach and play! We are looking forward to a great 2025 spring season.

Currently, Centex Storm’s volunteer staff is organizing the registered players into teams. Once all the coach’s are recruited, we will hold a coach meeting. Rosters are not distributed to the coaches until after the coach meeting, so players won’t hear from their coaches until later in February. If you are interested in coaching or joining our staff, please reach out to rec@centexstorm.com

Have a great season!

Spring Soccer Season Starts in a Few Weeks! https://centexstorm.com/spring-soccer-season-starts-in-a-few-weeks/ https://centexstorm.com/spring-soccer-season-starts-in-a-few-weeks/#respond Wed, 07 Feb 2024 18:38:35 +0000 https://centexstorm.com/?p=1816 Hi Centex Storm Family!

We are excited about the upcoming spring season! Thank you to those that have already signed up. If you are still interested in playing and have not completed your registration, please do so now as registration will close Friday, February 2, 2024. The link to register is at https://system.gotsport.com/programs/6204I9723?reg_role=player

We still have a few weeks before practices will start (late February), but it’s time to get your equipment ready. If you’re new to playing soccer, check out our FAQ webpage for more detailed information about what to expect this season. The link to the FAQ is https://centexstorm.com/recreational-faq/

Now’s a good time to make sure you have soccer cleats, shin guards and a soccer ball. While you are working on your gear, our volunteer Centex Storm staff is sorting through the registrations, making teams, and assigning coaches. We want everyone to have the opportunity to play but sometimes that is limited to the number of coaches we have. If you are interested in coaching or have questions about coaching, please reach out to registrar@centexstorm.com

As soon as the teams and coaches are assigned, coaches will begin to contact players (mid- February). Your coach will tell you your practice times, practice locations, and game schedule (when it becomes available). 

Thank you for choosing to play with Centex Storm Soccer Club. We hope you have a good experience this year, and if you have any questions or comments, please reach out to me at registrar@centexstorm.com and I’d be happy to help!

Thanks!

Pamela Casebolt

Spring 2023 Picture Day on April 22nd https://centexstorm.com/spring-2023-picture-day-on-april-22nd/ Thu, 13 Apr 2023 19:32:23 +0000 https://centexstorm.com/?p=1448

Spring 2023 Picture Day on April 22nd

Picture day is April 22nd. We are using a new photography vendor, so there are new procedures to be aware of compared to last year:

  • Photos are being taken as a team, so the whole team must be present together, including the coach. No make up photos are available. 
  • Coaches/teams can pick up picture forms from the concession stand immediately. 
  • The order form envelope should be returned to Fanatix Photography with your team information at the team’s picture time. 
  • Photos must be pre-purchased or purchased at the time of the photo using the order form that your coach can provide. If you are not happy with your player’s photo, the vendor says you can return the photo to them and they’ll issue you a full refund.

Picture Day Instructions from Fanatix Photography

Reminders for parents to have a smooth and successful photo day!

  1. Please have teams show up at least 30min before their photo time. (We are on a schedule so if you don’t make it by the photo time your child may not be in the team photo.)
  2. Have parents fill out order form envelope and have payment inside envelope before their photo time.
  3. Parents check in at the front table if your buying pictures. Gather together as a team and when all players show up we can start taking team photos. (Bring at least one nice soccer ball)
  4. Please use checks or have exact cash to pay for pictures.
  5. Have players picture ready. Tuck in shirts, have hair done, wipe off face..etc
  6. Only coaches and players are allowed in the photographers photo area.
  7. After your team has taken their individual and team photo, please clear the photo area for the next team.

Spring 2023 Rec – Informational Email 2 – Coaches have been assigned

Hey Centex Soccer Family!


You can always find the latest announcements and information on our Recreational Info Hub here: https://centexstorm.com/recreational/  


For all of you parents like me who maybe procrastinate a little longer than we should, it’s time to get that soccer gear because…


We have assigned coaches! Practices will start very soon. You should hear from your coach by February 28th! If you have not heard from your coach AFTER February 28th, then and only then please reach out to us at rec@centexstorm.com. We do want to make sure you have a good line of communication with your coach because they are going to be your primary point of contact.


Your coach will tell you:

  • Practice times

  • Practice locations

  • Game schedule (when the coach receives it; it’ll be a little longer)

  • Provide your game jersey and game socks when they receive it (it’ll be a little bit longer before we distribute jerseys)


Remember, the coach is a person just like you! Be supportive and help anyway you can. Also, please note your coach does not have 100% control over practice time or location. We are balancing many teams across a few fields. 


Most of the time, the fields will be shared by 3 or 4 Centex Storm teams practicing at the same time. Please be mindful of this. Your coaches’ space selection and the parent chairs need to be positioned so as not to block out the other teams.


Also, the game schedule is still being finalized. When it’s done, it will be sent to the coaches. Please keep in mind that kick off times are set in stone. If the game is at 8:30, we are starting at 8:30 on the dot. So for your coach’s sake, please arrive early! We the League have to promptly keep the schedule because there is a full game of days with many teams using the same fields.  


Thank you for choosing to play with Centex Storm soccer. We do this because we love the game of soccer. We hope you have a good experience this year, and if you ever have questions or comments, please reach out to us as rec@centexstorm.com


Thank you,

Anthony Woolstrum

Spring ’23 Rec Roster Assignments are being published https://centexstorm.com/spring-23-rec-roster-assignments-are-being-published/ Tue, 21 Feb 2023 17:43:34 +0000 https://centexstorm.com/?p=1350

Spring ’23 Rec Roster Assignments are being published

Coach,

Please find the attached roster. The player management system has been down, so we manually sorted this list.  If there is a problem, please direct ALL roster issues to Ron  Please be patient if additional players are added later or any changes have to be made (but feel free to go ahead and contact the parents). 

Please contact your roster by February 28th at the latest. We suggest you form a (free) GroupMe group and add your parents to it. This will be a good place to make team announcements. 

Common roster problems include:
– The player registered as male but is actually female, registered as the parent’s name, or the phone number or email address are misspelled
– The player mistyped their birth year and is in the wrong age bracket. (Age bracket charts are in the rec faq on website for reference)
– A player requested XYZ. Sometimes these requests can be accomodated, but sometimes the league is not able to accomodate the request.  

You only need to send these issues to Ron if you cannot sort them on your own.  

Thank you,
Centex Storm Rec Team
