(Yes, believe it or not, older kids requested morning workouts! I thought we would rotate them a little bit but favor the older kids with those morning workouts since parents won't need to get up and drive them.)
Monday 11/16: varsity 6:30-7:30 am (conditioning); JV 3:45-5:15 pm (strength and conditioning)
Wednesday 11/18: JV 6:30-7:30 am (conditioning); varsity 3:45-5:15 pm (strength and cond.)
Thursday 11/19: varsity 6:30-7:30 am (strength); JV 3:45-4:45 pm (strength)
Please note that this is subject to change as both Coach Dickerson and Singletary are coaching basketball (primary commitment) and they typically get their schedules the week of... It is also dependent on field and weight room availability coinciding with the needs of football (was hoping to know by now but we will update as we find out more).
Everyone that is not playing a fall sport is expected to be there. If you cannot make any of the practices you must come see Coach Leezer with an explanation why.
If this schedule works for both Coach Dickerson and Singletary (and most of our kids and parents) then we will most likely keep it the same for the 2 weeks in December. If we run in to issues then we will modify it and let everyone know.
2) FALL BALL
Fall Ball is almost complete! Only 1 more week left. I would like to thank everyone that has volunteered their time this year (kids and parents) to help make this successful. We couldn't do this without all of you giving your valuable time. I would especially like to emphatically thank all of our board members for how much they have given. If you have been there, you know that they are there every week and give above and beyond the call of duty. Thanks to you all for everything you do for our boys and the program!
Parents please don't forget to volunteer for the final week if you have not done so already!
Also, a huge thanks to all of our fall coaches this year too! Thanks for all that you do. Please let them know your appreciation when you see them this week!
3) SPRING PRACTICE SCHEDULE
The spring practice schedule is underway (a work in progress). I hope to have it wrapped up within the next couple weeks but it all depends and a multitude of factors. At the very least it should be finalized by the end of Thanksgiving break. If you have questions about any dates or practice times prior to it going out, please feel free to email me.
4) HELMETS
Varsity helmets are the matte gray Cascade R (new last year). All varsity players are required to purchase one. We get them at a discounted team rate of $190. If your child makes varsity, plan on purchasing one. Anyone may purchase them, however (JV included). As of now the JV play with white Cascade helmets but they are also permitted to play with the gray R.
We have 4 used matte gray helmets from last year (a couple seniors sold theirs back). If you would like a 1 yr. old helmet at a discounted price ($100) please come see Coach Leezer. They are 1st come, 1st served.
If you plan to purchase one as a JV player, please email Coach Leezer immediately. (I have an extended date on the purchasing of those helmets but am constrained by delivery times.) We will not be ordering any white Rs however. If you have a youth helmet that is not white please come see Coach Leezer also (and bring the helmet for me to see).
5) OTHER ITEMS
Please let me know if there is anything you have a question about that I did not cover or anything related to lacrosse in general. I am happy to answer any questions you may have.
Please relay this info to others and send me the name and email of anyone that wishes to be added to my distribution list.
Coaches and board members - if you have anything further to add, please reply all. Otherwise, thank you for an awesome fall!!!!
