• There may be a need to help setup or put away equipment for games. Corner flags, benches, and backstops may need to be moved or removed to facilitate mowing by city crews. There may also be a need to help the head ref with sidelines. Please check in with coaches to see what they need. 
• After practices and games, please check your area and pick up any trash or equipment left behind.
• Fields will be painted weekly. We may need to paint while practices are ongoing but we will work around players/coaches and won't stop play.

Finally, below is a map of the field layouts for this spring. Please feel free to forward to friends, families, or visiting teams. Red lines parallel to the fields are the spectator areas. Red stars are locations for restrooms (note, city controls when they are open and last year it was the middle of April before they were unlocked.)

Enjoy the spring season!

Iowa County Youth Soccer

The Iowa County Youth Soccer Association is community organization promoting soccer for all children in the Iowa County area.

Our organizations operations are volunteer run and are funded by registration fees, sponsorships, fundraising and donations.

We do not receive funding from Dodgeville Park and Recreation or any other public entity or business.

*If you are interested in volunteering for a board member position or to help with special committees, please contact one of the current Board Members.  Volunteers are what make this program happen.  We are in need of a few key spots on our board today!

All events, tournaments, games and other activities sponsored by ICYSA rely heavily on the “Spirit of the Game”. 

What is the Spirit of the Game?

The Spirit of the Game is an emphasis on sportsmanship, fun, respect-for-all and quality of play over winning, rivalries, or trophies. Highly competitive play is encouraged but never at the expense of mutual respect among competitors, adherence to the rules and the basic enjoyment of participating.

AND SPIRIT OF THE GAME IS FOR SPECTATORS TOO!

Spectating is more fun when you

1. Know the Laws of the Game, including special adaptations and specific rules for any event or tournament.
2. Appreciate hard work and quality of play over winning  trophies. Cheer for great plays and hustle, by either team.
3. Set your own best example. Take the high road regardless of how others behave.
4. Overcome obstacles. View adversity of any kind as a learning, parenting, or mentoring opportunity and not a reason to complain.
5. HAVE FUN! This is why kids play the game. In many surveys, asked why they play, “Winning” isn’t even among the Top 10 reasons.
6. Stay on the spectator side of the field; do not approach coaches during games. Cheer from the sideline without undermine the coach position with your own calls. Your player wants to hear you cheering THEM on.
