FW: Shamrocks!!!

 great season for the Shamrocks!

Our young ladies had a great season: getting to know each other, making new friends, and learning that soccer is fun!

 

I want to thank all of the families that supported our girls. Parents, grandparents, brothers and sisters! Great to see so many people at the games!

 

I encourage all of you to enjoy the winter, and I will send an email when I have information about the Spring session!

 

Thanks for everything, and have a great off-season!

Post-game Frozen Yogurt on Sunday

Sunday is the Shamrocks last game for the fall season.  Let's plan to gather at Froyo Frozen Yogurt at Lane Avenue after the game.  Everyone is welcome. 
 
Froyo used to be Cuzzins.  
 

           

Shamrocks: last week of the season!

Our girls did a great job this week! As always, they played well, gave it 100 percent, and enjoyed the beautiful weather!

 

Our 6pm Tuesday practice might be rained out, so please plan accordingly. As of now, we plan to have practice but be prepared for a possible rainout.

 

Our 6pm Wednesday practice looks like it might be a bit chilly, but no rain.

 

Our 9am Saturday practice will be COLD. (High of 45 degrees for the day...) Please send your daughter with layers. Once we get moving, long-sleeve t-shirts are best, but they should start with a sweatjacket/sweatshirt.

 

Our 2pm Sunday game (last game!) looks good, if a bit cold. Please let me know if you will not attend.

 

As always, thank you for supporting our team! Our daughters are learning, and having fun!

Another great week for the Shamrocks!

 The girls played a great game Sunday! Bummer about the loss, but the
 girls showed their toughness!
 
Weather looks good for practices this week.
 
Normal times for practices: 6pm Tues, 6pm Wed, 9am Sat, with a 2pm
 game on Sunday.
 
If you know your daughter will not attend the game Sunday, please let
 me know (so Coach Hugh can build the roster with only girls who will
 attend).
 
Thanks to everyone for attending the game and supporting our girls!
 Have a great week!

Tuesday 10/14 Practice is cancelled

Due to rain and wet fields.

Shamrocks!

Our girls are fantastic!
 
The girls gave all of their energy, worked together, and played a great game!
All of the coaches think that this was our best game of the season!

Our practices this week *might* be cancelled due to rain. Please make
your own judgment call about attending. I will send out an email if we
cancel practice. (Even if it isn't raining at 6pm, the fields might be
under water due to the amount of rain during the day...)

I hope we have practice on Tues and Wed, but I just want everyone to
make their own decisions about attendance.

Saturday weather looks great!

Our game on Sunday is 12:45pm.

Thank you for attending the game Sunday, and have a great week!

No Practice on 10/7

Due to weather.  Hope to see you on 10/8.

Great game Sunday!

Thank you to all of the parents and families that attended the game
Sunday! While all of the girls know the score of the game, the coaches
are not concerned.
 
Our girls did a great job, and the other team's coaches were very
complimentary of our girls' defense: "strong, organized".

(The other team's coaches also mentioned that the majority of their
girls were fourth graders and very tall for their age...The majority
of our girls are in third grade.)
 
Our girls did great work: they fought hard, they supported each other,
and they had fun.
 
One note: I would appreciate it if all parents could counsel their
girls to "support their team" when the girls are not playing: no one
plays the entire game, and instead of "horsing around" on the
sidelines, girls should be supporting their teammates and "learning
from watching". Thank you.
 
While we plan to have practice as normal this week, it is currently
looking like rain for Tuesday practice. Please play it by ear. We will
not ask the girls to play in the rain, so feel free to stay home if it
is raining...
 
Wednesday and Saturday practices are at normal times/location (and
weather looks good).
 
Reminder about photos at the upcoming game: please arrive early for
the team photo, and bring the photo form and payment.
 
Feel free to call, email or text me for updates throughout the week.
Thanks again!

Notes for 10/3, Team photos

Some tidbits:
 
- We have practice tomorrow (Saturday) at 9am;
 
- We have a game Sunday at 3:30pm;
 
- At the Sunday game, I will hand out forms for photos: team photos
will be held before next week's game (Oct 12), so please plan on
appearing earlier than normal; the forms explain everything, including
all the options for buying photos (size, number of photos, cost, etc).
 
- If you cannot attend this week's game, I will bring the forms to
next week's Tuesday and Saturday practices.
 
Thank you!
 
Dan

Soccer balls

Hi everyone,

If you have not yet received your soccer ball and you want one, please see Coach Hugh at practice on Saturday or at the game on Sunday to make sure you get it.  I still have three unclaimed.

Also, please make sure the girls have shin-guards for all practices and games, we are still playing ‘cluster-ball’ at this age (although we’re working on it) and when there are 20 girls in a huddle all trying to kick the ball, shins will get kicked and it hurts!!

Great season so far.

Go Shamrocks!

This Week for the Shamrocks (9/22)

A note from Dan Doron:

Great game Sunday! All the girls played very well, and gave it all of
their energy!

The game has given the coaches and the girls some areas to focus upon,
and everyone will improve in time for next week's game.

This week, we have practice on Tues, Wed, and Sat. The Sunday game is
again at 12:45pm (at the same field).

We plan to have the shirts returned to the girls before Sunday's game.

Thank you again for supporting the girls! Great turnout at the game!
