Religious/Cultural Conflict Policy
The Swampscott community is diverse, consisting of many
religious and cultural backgrounds. SYSA respects that our players have
various holidays and celebrations. No SYSA player will be pressured to
participate in a game or practice should a game or practice fall on a
holiday or a family celebration. TRAVEL TEAMS need to follow ECYSA's protocol. Please notify your coach immediately when
there is a conflict.
A
message from the Swampscott Police Department:
We would like to ask
parents to avoid
parking on Charlotte, Muriel and Lodge Rd.
I met with residents of those
streets along with the members of the Town's Traffic Study Committee, and
the residents have expressed their concerns over the congestion and the
manner in which people are parking on the street.
As you well know the streets are heavily congested and residents are
certainly inconvenienced and concerned for the safety of the children with the amount of parking in the
area. The parking congestion does narrow the street in such a way as
to prohibit fire and ambulance access in the case of emergency (i.e. a
medical aid for one of the children) and certainly nobody wants that.
The entire parking lot by the old Kids Cove playground is continually
vacant so that is a suitable alternative. It has been recently resurfaced,
is in good condition, and does not pose an inconvenience to neighbors or
parents/coaches.
The residents in the area do have to put up with a lot of commotion and
have expressed that they are more than accepting of the kids playing in the
park naturally, but they do also have legitimate concerns with the
congestion and safety in the area. We are in the process of communicating
with the other sports teams as well as this is not just a soccer
issue.
Thanks in advance for everyone's help on this important matter.
Respectfully,
Lt. Gary J. Lord
