We did it!

Wow! we did it! We made it through the regular season with a perfect 9-0 record! This is so exciting! Our boys have practiced hard for the last 3 months and it has paid off! They should be very proud of themselves, I know the coaches are very proud of the team. It is a big accomplishment to win all of our games!
Here we come playoffs! We do not have our playoff schedule yet but Coach is attending a meeting Monday at 6:30 where he is expecting to get the schedule. However, there is a 3-way tie for 3rd place in our division so we may not get our exact schedule until after they have the tie-breaker game between those teams. I will let you know as soon as possible what time our game will be on Saturday. Since we are first place in our division we will play the #4 team.
If you have any questions about the playoffs and how they work please let us know!

We will be practicing this week at Riverton Park. Practice will be Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 5:30-7:30. We are practicing under the lights so we will be able to have full practices throughout the playoffs.

Riverton City Park is 12650 S and 1500 W.
You can turn onto 1500 W from 12600 S.........this is a very large park and there are several different areas of grass fields to practice on. We do not know exactly where we will be practicing, it is a first come first serve basis as to which field location you get. So look for Coach's black truck!! We will try to get the same field throughout the week!

Thanks! If you have any questions please call!

Practice Schedule for this Week

Hello Team!

Due to the forecast of very cold and snowy weather this week practice will be scheduled as follows:

Tuesday 10/27 5:30-6:45
Wednesday 10/28 5:30-7:00
Thursday 10/29 5:30-7:00

Please remember to dress the boys for the weather. This week will be good example of the weather we are likely to face throughout the playoffs and tournament games. It will be good for the boys to wear clothing that helps keep them warm but that they can also play comfortably in.
The boys have been provided with hand warmers and neck warmers in an attempt to help keep them warm. Please use them! Also they should double up on the socks, cold toes usually results in the rest of the body being cold too!
I have talked to many of you about buying tights.....yep, girls tights! The boys kinda throw a fit at first but tights really go a long way in keeping the body warm. They can be hidden beneath socks and pants and provide an extra layer on the feet! They really work well!
I have put a box of the little hand warmers in the coaches bag. If the boys activate one of those heat pouches and put it in the hand warmer they were given it really keeps that little pocket warm!
I will also do my best to keep hot chocolate available for the boys on the sideline!

For future games.......
In the event of snow, it is nice to have the shade awnings and tarps that can be put up for shelter. If anyone has these items that they would be willing to bring and set up please let me know. We would want one for the team to stand under and then of course we need to protect ourselves!! :) This is only if we end up playing in a storm, so far we have been very fortunate with the weather, but you never know!

We have had a phenomenal season! I'm so excited for the success of our team and hope we can play just as well throughout the playoffs! I just want to say again how much I appreciate all the parent support that we have on our team. I know the boys and the coaches really appreciate the crowded sidelines at each game. It makes all those nights of practicing worth every minute!
