• CITY OF ARDEN HILLS <br />MEMORANDUM <br />DATE: January 6, 2000 <br />TO: Tom Moore, Parks and Recreation Director <br />FROM: Michelle Olson, Program Supervisor /40 <br />SUBJECT: Fall Co -Ed Youth Soccer Evaluation Summary <br />Background <br />Attached you will find the results of the 1999 Fall Co -Ed Youth Soccer Evaluation. <br />There were 222 youth fall soccer participants; 151 Families. Every family was mailed an <br />evaluation. We had 31 evaluations returned, which is a return rate of 21 %. <br />Conclusion <br />Positives <br />1. High scores for Customer Service. <br />2. The participants felt that the league was very organized. <br />3. The participants felt that there had been significant improvements — water at field, <br />field coordinator, etc. <br />4. All participants that responded said they enjoyed the season. <br />5. 94% responded that they would enroll him/her next season. Of the two that reported <br />either no or unsure, they both stated reasons such as age or other sports conflicts. <br />6. 97% responded that they would recommend the league to a friend. <br />Negatives <br />1. The games often started later than scheduled. <br />2. It was hard to field a team on MEA weekend! <br />3. Playing other cities sometimes brings up conflicts such as "level of competitiveness", <br /># of girls vs boys, rule interpretations, etc. <br />4. Buddy system — Too many requests! <br />Summary <br />The Fall Co -Ed Youth Soccer season was a success. The league size remained the same <br />as 1998. However, we did increase our 7th and 8th grade teams from 0 last year to 2 this <br />year. <br />The number one concern expressed was MEA weekend. Playing on this weekend was a <br />scheduling conflict due to family vacations. We will look to address this issue for next <br />season. Also, we will try and add time between games next year to help eliminate delays <br />in game start times. <br />
