BE AWARE
Please watch out for anyone moving our nets from VanBourgondien to The Field of Dreams. Two goal posts were broken while someone was trying to move them to the Field of Dreams. If you see someone other than club members trying to play on the fields please let us know.

Field of Dreams Turf Field
The Turf Field located behind Our Lady of Grace is off limits to all teams within South Shore Soccer Club of West babylon. No team is allowed to practice, scrimmage or play games on that field. South Shore Soccer does not have a permit for that field and as a result has no insurance coverage should someone get hurt playing on that field.

Kids Soccer Goals Recalled!
WASHINGTON - About 190,000 MacGregor and Mitre folding soccer goals were recalled Tuesday, after the death of a young child.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission said a 20-month-old boy from Texas was strangled when his head and arm became entangled in the net of one of the recalled goals.
The agency received one other report of a child's head becoming entangled in a net.
The gaps in the recalled nets are about 20 square inches, which is a dangerous size according to the CPSC. The agency says netting should have gaps less than 17 square inches or greater than 28 square inches, to prevent dangerous entrapment and strangulation.
The Chinese-made goals were distributed by Regent Sports Corp. of Hauppauge, N.Y., and sold by sports and hardware stores nationwide, including Wal-Mart and Ace Hardware. They were available between May 2002 and May 2008.
Parents and caregivers are advised to stop using the nets, which can be returned to Regent Sports in exchange for a free, safe replacement. For more information, call 877-516-9707.
