Team History Overview

During the 2006-2007 Soccer Season, the District IV Website implemented a Team History function. The intent of this function is to allow applicable users (Club/Association Officers & Registrars) the ability to see Team History information for team’s under the authority of their organization. The System Administrator has the ability to create new Team History data as necessary to track any team placements throughout a Seasonal Year Period. Typically, this is updated once per seasonal year in preparation for a new seasonal year. Following the performance of this task, the current Team Placement Table is purged to allow for the placement of teams for a new Seasonal Year. The data is tracked by Team ID# and basically contains the following information for each individual Team Placement. Please note that an individual team may have several distinct placements within a Seasonal Year, but only 1 placement per individual season within that Seasonal Year:

• Team ID #
  9 Digit WSYSA Team ID #
• Team Name
  Team Name assigned to that team on the District IV Website by the applicable club registrar.
• Team Age
  The age of the oldest player on this team as identified by the applicable club registrar.
• Team Staff Information (Coach, Assistant Coach, Manager, Trainer)
  General listing displays name of Coach assigned, but can view entire staff listing by opening any team’s history record.
• Team Placement (Period, Season, Authority, Division, Level, Gender, Notes)
  Defines the actual team placement in the specified Period by Season (i.e. Fall, Spring, Cup, etc.), Authority, Gender, Level, Division, etc.

This data is intended to provide all Club/Association Officers, Registrars, Administrators the ability to track the placement history of any particular team within its authority based upon its individual Team ID #. This makes the Team ID# critical as a team progresses through the youth system on an annual basis. Returning Teams (those typically with a minimum of 8 returning players) should retain the same Team ID# from year to year no matter what League, Division, Age bracket it participates in.
