Josh's awesome little boy once again made an appearance and also brought along a friend so that each side got to have a pint size Pele to call their own.
I announced that our uniforms are to arrive by next Monday (UPS says the shipment is 15 lbs!) So extra incentive to make it to next Thursday's practice! Remember numbers are first come first serve within your size. I am so excited for us to get these!
Also I announced that I am going to have practice this Sunday (21st) and next Sunday (28th) for sure as turn out has been pretty good on those practices and they are appreciated by those who can't make the Thursday practices. As for labor day weekend, I for one don't have plans so if enough people are in town (at least 5 lets say?) then I am totally down for practicing on the 3rd.
Also we discussed the idea of continuing to offer a weekly practice once the season starts. Ian has pointed out that the fields at U of O should be open during the fall. Tentatively fall practices is looking like Sundays again, at U of O at 3 or 4pm (on account of it getting darker earlier).
Finally as previously mentioned I am offering to throw a BBQ for the team and the first step for that is for you all to answer the survey I sent out so we can pick a day. Please fill that out asap, preferably by no later than Sunday so that we can all plan (especially me...)
I am happy to offer the opinion that I think we are all getting much better due to the practices. Especially for those who had not previously played soccer, I think its been really cool to see how much more comfortable they have become and the growth in confidence!
