Lots to report - Please read

I've got quite a few things to share with you.

1. We have NPL games this weekend. I'm sorry for the late notice. I didn't realize these were happening so soon. It looks like both games are at 5:30pm at McGovern. You can see the NPL schedule here. Please let me know if you CAN'T make these games.

2. In September, we should be moving to our normal training schedule. This means T-Th are our dedicated training times. We will have a speed/agility/strength/conditioning session as well. And then the girls are always welcome to train with the 00's on the M-W sessions. (Just as they have the option to train with us on T-Th).

3. Our SRPL schedule is still a little bit of a mess. Right now it shows us with no games over Labor Day Weekend, and unassigned games the weekend after that. Supposedly there will be an update later tonight. I'm not sure what will happen to the game from Saturday that got rained out.

4. Since we don't have anything scheduled for Labor Day now, I'm seeing if I can squeeze us in to the Plano tournament. So, tentatively keep that open if you can. I'll let you know as soon as I hear something.

5. On training and weather - Vedad really hates missing practices because of rain. We've been using the Strake facility, and sometimes Adrian reserves the courts at The Zone for futsal. So even in foul weather, plan on some type of training. However, there is a cost associated with this. The Strake fields and The Zone aren't free, but we share the costs with the 00s or in last week's case the DA boys. Depending on how many times we get rained out, this will add to our team's expenses. It's something like $8-10/player/session. If you have any objections, let me know.

6. Vedad would like to have a brief team meeting after the game on Sunday, so please plan on staying a little after. 

Plano game cancelled

I think y'all saw the groupme, but just in case you're checking here, the game in Plano on August 20 has been CANCELLED. 

Plan on a scrimmage on Sunday. I'll let you know as soon as I know more. 

SRPL Game - August 20

Ahoy!

We have our first SRPL game this Saturday, August 20th, in Plano. The game time got moved to 12:30pm because of a conflict with Vedad's other team.

The game will be played at Russell Creek Park on Field L.

3500 McDermott Road
Plano, TX 75025

We should wear green, but please bring navy just in case.

It's about a 4 hour drive with no traffic from this part of town, so please plan accordingly. I know y'all know this, but nutrition and warm-up will really matter. Plan your morning by reverse engineering a meal time that will work with your daughter's needs. Also, I believe a more robust warm-up is needed after sitting in the car for 4+ hours. Let's try to have them fed, hydrated, and ready to go at 11:30.

In other news, I'll need medical releases from our new players, y'all know who you are.
Here's a link to the release. Can you please fill this out and get it back to me? Email is fine or a hard copy at practice or the game is ok too. For returning players, if anything has changed, please update and send to me.

I also have to make our new player cards. I want to do some high quality photos of the girls, but given the weather and that a few of you are still out, I'll probably have to do that next week. Again, if you're new to the team, please email or text me a picture of your daughter that I can use for the players cards.
