SOCCER GAME TODAY CANCELLED

(yay!)

Stay tuned for makeup game info.

practice cancelled!

I'd say it's about a 50/50shot that we're gonna get hammered at practice tonight, so to give the field and the kids (and the parents), I'm going to cancel practice tonight.  Sorry for the late notice, but you never know with this stuff.

If it stays nice, please kick the ball around with the kids!

Snack Schedule

Hi everyone,

Great game Saturday despite the frigid temperatures.  Coach Caleb promised to bring his propane deck heater for the next sub-40 game.

Here is the snack schedule, randomly generated by the Blue Thunder Schedule Computer:

Apr 27 - Julian

May 4 - Nathan

May 11 - Yuvraj

May 25 - Jacob

June 1 - ???

June 8 - ???

As you can see, we'll need a few volunteers for the last two dates.  Please let me know if you're willing to contribute.

See you all Wednesday,

-Coach Costa

Hi Everyone,

We have 8 more games, and 7 players have yet to be on Snack Duty:

Jaiveer

Julian

Nathan

Yuvraj

Jacob

James

Nick

I will volunteer for snack this weekend, just to get everyone warmed up.  For everyone else, please let me know if you have a week that you prefer or have conflicts.  If not, I will randomly assign weeks before next weeks practice.

What will we do for the final slot?  I'll figure it out later ;)

Reminder that practice begins this Wednesday at 6:15pm, Field 1.

Don't forget your balls, shinguards, and shoes (make sure to try your shoes on!)

Game reminder

Hi All,

Just a friendly reminder to please at the games 15 minutes prior to game time.  This is so I can split the kids up even, and so they can all get warmed up and hyped up for our domination of the other team ;)

See you tomorrow at 8:15,

Costa

PRACTICE CANCELLED

Despite my kids' insistence that the Blue Thunder should play in the rain, I am cancelling practice tonight.

Sorry for the short notice, but it just started raining and thundering.

Fwd: Spring soccer

According to the commisioner's letter (see below), the recent cold and wet weather has delayed the start of the season!   I will therefor likely hold practice Wednesday April 10, at 6:15pm.  NOTE this is different than what we did before, which was 6:30pm.  This is to try to take advantage of daylight while we can, and hopefully we can keep this schedule just so we're not getting home with wired kids at 8pm like last year :)

I'm also delighted to know that we should have the same roster as last fall, with the addition of Joey's twin Nicky.  I think Nick saw how much fun we were having and decided to hop back on the soccer train.

See you next Wednesday, and stay dry,

Coach Costa

Hey everyone,

The board just finalized their vote and the decision is to DELAY THE BEGINNING OF THE SEASON one week due to the recent weather.

The first games will be played on APRIL 13th. This should give us some more time to get some warmer weather, drier fields, and get some lines painted on those fields.  The season will now end on JUNE 8th.

The games schedule was finished, let me just "tweak" it and I will send that to you ASAP, along with the field lining schedule for the Spring.

If you have any questions, comments or concerns please let me know.

THANKS,

Mike Colberg

If someone does not, however, please let me know so that I can adjust team rosters with new registrants.   Also, start thinking about whether you want to jeep the same practice night.  If you do, I will let the field manager know. If not, I will make that adjustment.
