Check In

Mandatory Team Check In – After Acceptance

Dear Coaches and Managers,

The following are instructions for teams to check in for the Roxbury Soccer Club Kick Off Classic Tournament.  This is for ALL teams attending the Tournament in August.  You have two options to check in, the first is electronically which we believe is the most convenient for all.  Alternatively you can come to our complex on Friday night before the tournament and do it in person.
