FIELD PREPARATION - 1st Games of the Day
Shown with a "SUN" icon in Matchtrak.
It is the responsibility of the teams that have the first game of the day (HOME TEAM) to prepare the fields.  This means painting ALL the lines including a continuous goal line (goal needs to be moved back), goal area, penalty area, penalty arc, penalty spot, corner arcs, halfway line and center circle.  
PLEASE DISPOSE OF SPENT PAINT CANS in the trash cans to keep the storage sheds neat.  Although these cans are not able to be recycled, they are not toxic to dispose of in the landfill as long as they are completely empty.

FLAGS

For divisions 8U & older Field Prep also includes putting out the corner flags and securing the goals with sandbags where necessary.    If the field is not ready then the referee will not start the match until the field is properly prepared.  

Due to referee availability & field scheduling, games that start late may be shortened to ensure all teams are able to play at their scheduled times.

FIELD BREAKDOWN - Last Games of the Day
Shown with a "MOON" icon in Matchtrak.
It is the home team's responsibility to collect the corner flags and secure them in the storage locker when they are the last game of the day on that field.  If there is a question if you are the last game of the day... if there are not teams waiting to take the field; then break down the field.  Field Parent(s) should also pick up any trash or debris and deposit in nearby garbage/recycling.  Lost and Found articles can be put into the storage locker.
