As we close the first week of school, the Freshman boys have the honor of opening the official interscholastic season. All four teams have had the chance for some scrimmages, both in-house and with a number of outside opponents, but on Friday the frosh will host Manchester Memorial at Dresden at 4:30. They will take the normal practice bus after school, and will need a postgame pickup. Be sure to bring mouthguard!
*Bus Alert! The after school busses are running on time! Today, they may have even left 30 seconds before 3:45. That's a great development, but players need to be sure to be ready to go at the appointed time.
*Shin guard alert: Shin guards are required equipment for all practices and games. Players will not be allowed to participate in practice if they do not have shin guards and proper soccer socks to keep them in place. There may be some warmup drills that do not require them, but no player on any team will be allowed to participate in any type of scrimmage or game-related drill without shin guards.
There are several changes to the Friday practice schedule: The JV1 team will have a regular practice at Dresden at the regular time (4:00 - 5:30). The JV2 team will have an optional Captains' practice (at the request of the Captains) at Dresden from 4:00 - 5:30. Balls and equipment will be provided.
The Varsity will have an optional Captains' practice on the HHS turf from 6:45 - 8:15. Balls, equipment and adult supervision will be provided.
All Subvarsity teams will have the Labor Day weekend (Saturday, Sunday and Monday) off. The varsity will train on Sunday at 4:00 on the turf, and on Monday from 5:00 - 7:00 on the turf.
