Community Outreach, Sponsorship &amp; Public Relations:<\/strong>\u00a0 Putting player development as the #1 priority of the club has always been at the forefront of everything that we have tried to do at Roseville Youth Soccer Club (RYSC).\u00a0 Being formally part of the Players First community gives us access to resources and best practices outside of the Roseville area that help us meet that stated goal and hold ourselves to the highest standard possible.<\/p><p><strong>Q: What does it mean for\u00a0Roseville Youth Soccer Club\u00a0to now be an official Players First-licensed club?<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>Millsap:<\/strong>\u00a0 RYSC is the largest youth soccer organization in Northern California and the only one we know about that has a Players First license for both our competitive and recreational parts of the club.\u00a0 It&#8217;s a true honor to be recognized for the focus placed on making sure the kids develop regardless of wins and losses.\u00a0 The program also provides us with access to best practices from the greatest clubs in North America where we can share lessons learned and be on the tip of the spear for new development techniques.<\/p><p><strong>Q: What makes Players First licensing different from other initiatives or programs your club has participated in?<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>Millsap:<\/strong>\u00a0RYSC is an all volunteer-led organization including our Board of Directors and all coaching staff which also makes us one of the most affordable clubs available.\u00a0 The Players First licensing canonizes\u00a0our commitment\u00a0to the philosophies of providing the youth with a holistic approach, continued education, open communication, and favoring long-term interests of the players in all that we do.\u00a0 This sets a roadmap and playbook for all of our volunteers to follow as we help the youth in our charge grow and develop.\u00a0<\/p><p><strong>Q: What would you like the parents of\u00a0Roseville Youth Soccer Club\u00a0to know about what this means to them?<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>Millsap:<\/strong>\u00a0 I would want the parents of RYSC to know that we put the best interest of their children first in everything that we do.\u00a0 We are committed to providing the best experience possible to help their\u00a0child grow into an active &amp; confident adult regardless of the wins and losses on the field.\u00a0 This commitment to the Players First philosophy and continually learning the best practices ensure we are there with you all the way through.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section
