PTSA Commissioners / Board Members,

 

Please send another reminder of the Annual Mtg on June 6th to all Coaches and please respond / have Coaches respond to me whether they (or an Assistant Coach) are attending, or not.  So far, I've had just ten responses from Coaches / Board Members regarding the meeting ... I need more response so appropriate food / beverage planning can occur by Bella Piatto Restaurant.

Fwd: Volunteers Needed: Challenger British Soccer Camp - Jul 16 - 20

Commissioners,

 

Please send an email to all Coaches with a request they ask their team's parents for volunteers to help coordinate this summer's Challenger British Soccer Camp which will take place July 16 - 20.  Jamie Ross is PTSA's Camp Coordinator and has a big need for volunteers to make the camp a success .. we are expecting about 200 soccer player campers this year ... the biggest camp ever for PTSA to manage.  Challenger Sports provides the professional soccer coaches (probably about 10 this year) to manage the soccer aspects of the camp, but Jamie has the huge, huge task of coordinating most everything else from registration promotion to on-site coordination.  Volunteers are needed to help with any of the following aspects:  hosting coaches, helping with first day registration, monitoring the mini-campers (ages 4-6), maintaining water/ice coolers, handling minor injuries (scrapes, bruises, heat exposure), helping with July 15th coaches reception, and other tasks that Jamie can't handle alone (especially since the camp will be held at multiple locations this year due to the size of the camp).  No soccer expertise is required .. just a love of the game and a willingness to help out.  Volunteers should contact Jamie Ross directly at:

Fwd: PTSA 2007/08 Travel Team Coaches Needed

---------- Forwarded message ----------
From: Peter Chiste <pmchiste@hotmail.com>

Subject: PTSA 2007/08 Travel Team Coaches Needed

Commissioners,

 

PTSA Travel Teams are in need of coaches for the 2007/08 Season.  As you know, Bill Harmon preliminarily recommended formation of 14 Travel Teams based on the number of players that attended a tryout.  However, as of a week ago, Bill had received just 5 applications for head coach.  Please send an email plea to all your In-House coaches (and others you know would make good travel coaches) to consider coaching a travel team next year ... the application form is on the PTSA website and should be submitted to Bill Harmon before next Monday's Board meeting.  Teams that are in need of coaches are U12G, U14G, U15G, U10B (two), U11B, U12B, U14B and U15B.  In the event that the dearth of coaching applications continues, the Board will need to consider alternatives which may include elimination of certain age-group travel teams ... that would be a result that would be very hard to accept.

Fwd: Trophies

Subject: Re: Trophies

We have handed out almost all of the U6, U8 and half of the U10 trophies.  If extra trophies are needed, we have them in the storage shed at Peterswood. I would ask that coaches contacting commissioners about picking up trophies be directed to the shed at Peterswood and simply let me know the coaches name and the number of trophies, so I can mark them off

Thanks

PTSA Picnic

Please forward this link as a reminder of the Soccer picnic on Saturday.

Fwd: Trophies

U8 Coaches:

Participation Trophies (to be handed out after your last game) can be picked up at the Pavilion overlooking the PSC in Peterswood Park between 8:30am and Noon on Saturday May 19th.

Make sure you pick up the right number of trophies for your team. So, check your roster size before showing up.

Remember the PTSA Picnic is also on this day. There will be plenty of food and drinks for all the PTSA families throughout the day.

The player trophies are expected to arrive next week for all Rec players in the township.  I plan on bringing the trophies to the pavilion at Peterswood Park on Saturday morning May 19th.  To accommodate the U6 coaches, I will stay at the pavilion from 8:30 - noon.  Please inform the U6, U8, U12-U15 coaches to pick up their trophies during this period of time.   As in the past, the U10 players will have an end of the season tournament with separate trophies for the first and second place teams.  I ask that the U10 commissioners pick up the trophies for all U10 teams, including the trophies for the division winners and runner ups at this time. Please inform the coaches to only pick up the appropriate number of trophies for the registered players on their team and to return any extra trophies that are not used. 

 

We were able to get a very good price ($3.95 includes shipping) on trophies this year. Each player will receive a 12" trophy for participation. 

 

Please call me if you need to arrange alternative plans.
