Crystal Hunting Trip, fundraising, practice

Coach Cooke lead an expedition to the crystal mine near Verdi.  Jesse Villasenor and his son Josh were the crystal locaters.  They opened up a great vug than provided crystals for all who went.

This next weekend, the team gets to earn money for tournaments or other activities by manning the opening soccer day parking fee collection.  The league collect $5.00 per car for parking to help keep the fees low and to maintain the fields and hopefully set aside some money to get lights installed for some of the fields. They will man the gate from 7:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

No practice on Labor day.  Parents need to keep in mind that unexcused absences may affect playing time of their child.  Hope to see everyone on Tuesday and Thursday.  We are now through with practice by 7:15 p.m.  and we will start with players that are there by 5:30 p.m.

We are still working on defensive skills and that will be the emphasis again this week.
