Community Coordinators
The Community Coordinators are volunteer positions (just like the rest of the League), that help the League Director in many ways.
They are: 1. responsible for coordinating the activities of the individual teams within a community; including Fees, Forms, Call for Teams, Handling of Disciplinary Actions, etc. 2. the main link in all communications between the League Director and the Coaches, 3. EXPECTED TO BE PRESENT (or have a delegate) at all League seasonal meetings; typically held in January for Spring and July for Fall Season, 4. submit a vote for all League activities when identified by the Director, Board, or at the League Meetings - ensuring that the community's interests are represented.
Those communities not represented at the at the seasonal meetings or not having a volunteer capacity in the league activities are jeopardizing their particpation in the league; to include additional "attendance fees" for non-attendees assessed for each community not sending a representative.

Other Supporting Documents
Background Check Adults participating in the ICSL league need to perform an annual Background Check (Referees (>18 yrs old), Coaches, Assistant Coaches), which is managed through the IYSA link below:
Uniforms There is no set requirement for uniforms. It can be printed T-Shirts to full uniforms, including socks, jersey, shorts. All players must wear approved cleats, shin guards and conform to the safety guidelines as described in the Safety Document.
Sponsors Sponsors can provide financial support to individual teams; ICSL is not currently set-up to handle donations. ICSL is a 501c non-profit organization.
Rescheduling Games Please see Rules document for additional information. Simply put, rescheduled games are the responsibility of the coach, who must contact the opposing coach and referees. Teams are responsible for referees fees regardless of the number of players fielded.
If ICSL has to reschedule a game due to weather, field conflicts, referee availability, etc. then league directors will alert the community coordinators/coaches to the adjusted schedules.
Referee Information It is important to not only teach the players how to play, but how to take direction from the Line Judges and Head (or Center) Referee. The attached simplified "Referee Signals" can help Parents, Coaches and Players better understand the game, both on and off the field.
