Program Philosophy

The mission of all Wahoo Parks and Recreation youth sport programs is to promote a fun, yet challenging environment in which participants are introduced to and taught the basics of a given sport.  This is a developmental program which emphasizes equal opportunity for involvement and participation.

Registration Period

Now through June 23rd.  Any registrations received after June 23rd will incur a $10 late fee and will only be accepted 'as needed'.

Program Format

2nd Grade, 3rd & 4th Grade, and 5th & 6th Grade leagues will be offered.  All league matches will be played on Saturdays (primarily AM) and Monday evenings if needed (only Wahoo, RC, or Mead teams would be scheduled for Monday nights).  Schedules will be released on or before July 24th.  League play will begin August 8th.  All teams will play a six-match, round robin schedule.  All matches are played 6 vs. 6.  Doubleheaders will likely be scheduled using Wahoo, Mead, or other area school gyms to reduce travel time and help avoid schedule conflicts.  If you are a coach and a specific date needs to be avoided please note this on your child's registration form.

Wahoo Teams - Roster Policy

If possible, Wahoo team rosters are formed via school affiliation.  Once teams are formed, coaches are responsible for contacting players on their rosters to set up practices and distribute information.  See the example below describing how teams are formed:

60 players are registered.  6 teams with 10 players each will be formed.  The first 6 volunteer head coaches registered will be assigned to coach teams in the order they registered.  Once coaches' kids are removed from the pool of players to be assigned to teams, the remaining players will be assigned to teams in the order they registered.  As a result, player requests are not accepted.

Out-of-Town Teams or Club Organizations - Roster Policy

All kids in each community and school are able to play on your team.  If a child is interested and not asked, WP&R reserves the right to place them on your roster if not enough children remain to create another team from the community/school.  Communities and organizations with multiple teams must divide those team rosters as evenly as possible via grade and skill (unless otherwise approved).  All rosters are subject to league director approval.

Out-of-Town Teams or Club Organizations - Group Discount

Any organization that:  1) follows the stated roster and uniform policies and 2) sponsors three or more teams is eligible to receive a $10 discount per player.  All player registrations on your teams must be paid with one check!  Organizations should collect all registration forms and mail/drop off forms in an envelope with full payment to:  Wahoo Parks and Recreation, Attn: Bob Schmidt, 310 N. Linden, Wahoo, NE 68066.

Equipment

All players must wear tennis shoes with non-marking soles.  Volleyballs are provided.  Kneepads are recommended.

Uniforms

Youth participating in Wahoo Parks and Recreation youth sports are required to wear the WP&R uniform t-shirts (blue & red).  These shirts are used for all youth sport programs and are available in a variety of youth and adult sizes and can be purchased at the Civic Center for $8 each.  Out-of-town teams/organizations need to wear a shirt approved by the league director that displays the WP&R logo.

Coach Selection

Wahoo Parks and Recreation utilizes volunteer coaches for all youth sport programs.  Coaches can request one assistant to coach with.  If there is a situation where A requests to be with B, and C requests to be with B as well, the first coach registered will be who coach B is with, regardless of Coach B's desires (communicate with one another before registering).  All coaches selected by WP&R are subject to a mandatory background check.  Out-of-town teams will be responsible for performing background checks for their respective coaches.

Refunds

Refunds will only be issued if a child is unable to play due to injury.  Any requests for refunds should be directed to Bob Schmidt.

Miscellaneous

Participants and their parents/guardians should be aware that there is a risk of injury during participation in Wahoo Parks and Recreation youth sports due to the inherent nature of the activities.  Individuals participate in Parks and Recreation youth sports programs at their own risk.
