Reminders / Updates - Regular Season games and Post Season Tournament
May 30, 2024
Coaches,
We hope you all had a great week back after the Memorial Day weekend. Below are few reminders and updates around the 2nd half of the season and as we prepare for the post season tournament.
We are expecting rain this evening, likely during the 1st set of games. Tonight will be a little crazy as we intend to attempt to get as much playing time in as possible. There is a small chance that the rain coming in around 7p will go around us and we will play the 2nd round as scheduled. It will likely be a game time decision.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Please feel free to share this email with the families on your team.
