On behalf of the Roman Tulis family this is to let you know that Roman passed away last night after a long and hard fought battle with colon cancer. The details of the location and time for the service will be available on the following website in the coming days should you wish to attend. In lieu of cards or flowers, the family asks if you would kindly donate funds in Roman’s name to a local registered charity whose mission it is to help families who have children with cancer and who are struggling financially. "The British Columbia Childhood Cancer Parent's Association" at www.bcccpa.org and click on the “About Us” link. There will be a donation box “In Memory of Roman Tulis” posted there very soon.
Roman Tulis has been a full time coach since 1978. A former Czechoslovakian, he served for ten years as youth coach for Slovan Bratislava, coached Slovakia's National Youth Team, and was a youth head coach in Austria.
After immigrating to Canada in 1988, Roman became involved with B.C. Soccer in 1993. Tulis opened his full-time school in September 1993 with 12 students - the first of its kind to operate year round in Canada.
The school has now grown to include both an Excellence and a Junior Program and coaches over 200 players twice weekly from September through June. Tulis alumni have moved on to play for professional teams abroad, and many have received college/ university soccer scholarships in the USA and Canada.
On behalf of the VYSA we would like to pass on our condolences to the Tulis family. |

Please be aware that portions of the Failure to Produce Photo ID have changed starting the 2009-2010 season – check your league’s Rules and Regulations.
Failure to Produce Photo ID
From October 1st onwards it is the responsibility of team officials to make the team’s BCSA photo ID cards available to the referee prior to the start of any game.
Players and team officials without validated BCSA photo ID will be ineligible to play, coach or manage. Exception will require written permission from the District Discipline Chair or, when specific to registration, the District Registrar. This would have been done in advance of your game.
If the team official(s) choose to play an ineligible player, or for themselves to coach/manage, without a validated BCSA photo ID card the referee will inform the opposition. The person will be allowed to play, coach or manage but the referee will include this information in his game report and the team official(s) will assume responsibility with regards to the discipline. |

Missing from 4-District Guide |

Although the following is in the Guide under U11 & U12 Program Information it got missed from the Rules page.
FIFA LAW 4: Player's Equipment - Safety
A player must not use equipment or wear anything that is dangerous to himself or another person (including any kind of jewellery.)
Religious Articles
Religious headwear may be worn at games, however, all jewelry must be removed (this applies to referees' as well). The only time that there is an exception is for MedicAlert and religious bracelets. In these cases both must be totally covered by tape so as not to cause injury to the player or anyone else (2.5 cm either side). If necklaces are worn for religious purposes they must be taped so that they do not come out from underneath the player's jersey.
All piercings must be removed.
Casts
Providing the cast is completely covered by bubble wrap or foam the referee can make an observation and decide whether it is of danger to the player or anyone else.
