End of Season

A few rambling items:

As we end another season, I wanted to take a moment to thank the parents and players for their time. And thanks to Sean and Ryan for all they did and for putting up with me.
The girls, as always, were a joy to work with and I hope everyone saw an improvement in their child's play.
For those that are returning in the Spring, we will have a change in how we handle practice time so that we can devote more age appropriate activities for both the younger and older players. There will be more on this later.
Keep an eye out for an email from Sean or Ryan concerning Indoor Soccer at Town and Country; probably for the second (January) session.
Also, even though our season is over, my son's team is still playing and will be practicing the next few Thursdays. Since I will be there anyway with Maria, I am extending an invitation to anyone who wishes to join us. We can have the girls play a few games, work on ball handling (I have picked up a few drill from Kings I want to try out) and let them play. I will be there from 5:30 to 7:00, but feel free to leave when necessary. This will be informal.

And finally, thanks to Mike and all the families for the gift and card. It was greatly appreciated.

Looking forward to next season,
Bob

Spooktacular Times

The games times have been announced for the Spooktacular. Please arrive 30 minutes before the game as parking will probably be an issue.

We are planning or working with Sean's team to set up an area as a base of operations, if you will, as we have families with girls on both teams. The schedule below lists times for both teams.

Sean will have a more detailed email coming out soon.

Thanks,
Bob

Since we did not play tonight, I will be at Silverlake Thursday at 5:00 if anyone is interested in practicing. Maria and Mallory will be there.

Otherwise, I will see you Saturday.


Thanks,
Bob

New player and change in fees

I am happy to say that we have added a player for the Spooktacular. Morgan Ball, who currently plays for Kelly Jefferson's U8 team, will be joining us. Morgan has an older sister that plays for Lee Bilz's U10 Girls, so a few of you may know her.

Morgan and her mother, Lori, will be at tomorrow's game to play with us and get acquainted.

As we now have 9 players, the fee for the tournament is reduced to $30 dollars. I will have a refund for those that have already paid.

Thanks,
Bob

Spooktacular

I will be mailing out the registration for the Spooktacular tournament Wednesday morning. I was unable to add additional players so the cost will work out to $34 per player (275/8).
We are guaranteed three games with an additional 1 or 2 if we advance. I will distribute a schedule as soon as it is available.

Also, a reminder that we play Wednesday at 6:00 PM at Spring Valley.

No practice on Thursday and out last regular season game is on Saturday.

See you tomorrow,
Bob
