Flag Football - From Coach Jeremy

FLAG-FOOTBALL

Parents & Players,

Welcome back from summer! I hope it went well for you and your family.

Football - No experience needed. Everyone is invited to play, work hard and have fun. Your child doesn't have to be big to play but everyone must be willing to be challenged and encouraged.

I’m looking forward to having another great season of football. So come! We played great last year and lost by a couple points in the last few seconds of play.

Practice will begin next week on Tuesday (Sept. 8 @ 3:20) after school. We’ll need to carpool over to Sorensen Park. Please make sure your player is ready soon after school to begin practice. Bring water!, footballs, and cleats. We haven't heard when games begin. We are hoping to get the official schedule soon.

NEEDED: First, Carpool vans, trucks, or whatever. If you can help on a regular basis, please let me know. Also, I'm looking for a parent who will cordinate both practice and game transportation. He or she would be in contact with other parents and players. Email soon if this is something you could do part or full time. Parents - Thanks for your help ahead of time, I know you'll be great in assisting me. Second, assistant coaches. Are there any dads or moms who would like to help coach with me? Both practice and game assistants and coaches are needed. Please email if you are interested. 15 kids is more than difficult to corral in football.

Be aware practice is mandatory unless there's an emergency. If your child will be absent, inform me or the office. Simply not wanting to practice is not a valid reason. Having everyone at practice is vital for the individual player, the team as a whole, and our ability to practice for the games. Abstention ought to be rare and could affect playing time.

This is the time to begin practicing at home for the season. I can provide drills for practicing alone or with a partner.
