Commissioners and Travel Coaches:

As you know, PTSA is holding training sessions this month for those players who are eligible to tryout for Travel Teams in May for the 2008-09 year.  We had a great turnout this past Saturday, but some of the players attending were not the correct ages, which put a strain on the instructors.  To be age eligible to attend these sessions, a player interested in U10 Travel must be born between 8/1/98 – 7/31/99. 

This means the child must be 9 years old by July 31st, 2008

If a child will not be 9 years old by that cutoff, we have a great Street Soccer program in May. You will be receiving information on this to pass on to your teams, it's on the website, and also will be in the Soccer Shorts newsletter this month.

Please send this information to all of you teams, regardless of their ages, because this is important information for siblings as well.  Please make parents aware that, just like at tryouts in May, we need them to be clear of the sides of the fields.  For a great view, they can watch from the top of the hill near the playground.  It's much less distracting for the kids if the parents are not in their line of vision.

Contact me with any questions –
