Here are answers to the questions families often ask, along with club policies and resources.
Common questions.
Which program should my player join?+
Start with your child’s age group: Littles (4U–7U), Developmental / Recreational (8U–12U), Youth Academy (8U–10U), or Competitive (11U–19U). If two programs overlap, ask the club which is the right fit. You’ll still need to confirm age eligibility and placement for the season before registering.
How do we register?+
Open the BUSC registration link in PlayMetrics. You can sign in with your existing family account or create one if you’re new. From there, you’ll see the available programs, fees, and deadlines for your player.
Where do I find practices and game times?+
You’ll find practices, games, field assignments, and team updates in PlayMetrics. The calendar on this website lists club-wide dates.
Where do we play?+
Bushnell Park is at 32100 Bushnell Rd, Burlington, WI 53105. You’ll find directions and an interactive field guide on our Facilities page. Before each session, check PlayMetrics to confirm where your team is playing.
Where can I find my coach’s biography?+
Go to Coaches & Staff, find your team’s head coach, and select their name to read their bio. We’ll add more team assignments as the club confirms them.
What happens when weather affects a session?+
Lightning, heavy rain that makes play dangerous, or unsafe field conditions can delay or cancel a session. Your coach will let you know about team cancellations; BUSC posts club-wide field closures on Facebook. Check PlayMetrics messages and club announcements before you leave. You’ll find a summary of the club’s April 16, 2024 weather reminder and a link to the original post below.

Weather & field closures
Published
The club’s weather reminder lists three reasons to stop or cancel play: lightning, rain heavy enough to make play dangerous, and field conditions that require a stop. Lightning causes an initial delay. Repeated strikes can lead to cancellation.
Your coach will let you know about individual team cancellations. BUSC announces club-wide field closures on Facebook. The club’s reminder says decisions are usually made later in the afternoon, unless conditions are already severe.
Before you leave, check your team’s PlayMetrics messages and the latest club announcements. Follow your coach’s and match officials’ instructions.
BUSC has zero tolerance for referee abuse. The club’s announcement explains that U.S. Soccer’s Referee Abuse Policy applies to players, coaches, and spectators.
Treat match officials respectfully and keep the focus on the players. You can read the club’s original announcement and watch its linked video for more about the policy.
The club’s parent resource post encourages families to learn how they can help prevent abuse. It links to parent education from the U.S. Center for SafeSport.
You’ll find those resources through the club’s original post below.
