Rides for Saturday

Hi everyone,

On Saturday, our family is planning to leave from the OAT Theater (across from the high school and First Baptist Church) at 1:15 pm. We will have 7 extra seats - please let us know if you will be wanting/needing a ride at this time. JH Boys who aren't riding with us, you need to leave Rolla no later than 1:15 pm, and plan to arrive at the game by 3:00 pm - game time is 3:30 pm.

 

Girls' Gold Team - you need to leave Rolla by about 2:30 pm, in order to make it to St. Louis by 4:15 pm - game time is 4:45 pm. If you are interested getting a ride with us at 1:15 pm, please let us know. Priority will go to the JH boys, but we may have some extra seats.

 

We will probably have a second car going -  I (Becky) will be driving and leaving from OAT Theater at about 3:00 pm. I will have up to 5 extra seats. I'm going to try to make it to St. Louis about 4:45, so I can watch both the Girls' game and the Varsity Boys' game. Anyone who would like a ride at this point is welcome to come with me - let us know.

 

Varsity Boys - you would need to leave Rolla by 4:00 pm or so, in order to arrive in St. Louis about 5:45 pm, half-an-hour before your game at 6:15 pm.

I just received this email of confirmation from the St. Louis Knights and Patriettes. Note the location is different than where we have played in the past. I just googled it from  the Kroger parking lot in Rolla, and it shows a driving time of 1 hr 40 minutes.

As long as the schools are in session tomorrow, Junior High boys will practice tomorrow from 4 - 5:30 pm at Wyman; Varsity boys from 7-9 pm at the High School. Girls practice Friday night from 7 - 9 at the Middle School.

Blessings!

Tuesday Game cancelled as well

Well, just our luck -- we get bad weather when we have games scheduled!

Our games tomorrow are now canceled -- Rolla Schools are closed tomorrow, so we can't use the facility, and besides, the Houston coach called tonight already wanting to cancel. We did reschedule with him for Thursday, Feb 26th. We will try to reschedule with Lebanon, too, possibly that last week of February as well.

We'll keep in touch...stay warm and be careful if you have to go out

tonight's game cancelled

Hi everyone -

The decision on this one just got taken out of my hands -- I just received a phone call from Calvin Morrow in Lebanon, and he felt the wisest course of action at this point was to cancel tonight's games. Even though the precipitation has not started yet, they are 100% certain it is going to by 3 or 4, and they are expecting heavy ice in Lebanon. His concern is that even if we got there, by the time we finished our games, we may not be able to get home safely.

So, it looks like we don't play Lebanon, again! Enjoy the evening off.

Junior High Boys -- since we don't have a game, Coach Hall would like to have your regular practice at Wyman from 4 - 5:30 pm. We will send an email out at 3:30pm confirming that (in case we find out the school is closed, or the weather is really bad at that point). Those of you coming from St. James or out in the country, please feel free to call us at home 573-364-4858 to double-check that we are on.

Everyone take care!

tomorrow's weather forecast and game

We are aware of the weather forecast for tomorrow, and will make a decision as early as we can about whether or not to travel to Lebanon.  As of now, the forecast says that Lebanon will to start getting sleet/snow early in the morning; however, we will probably wait until afternoon to make a final decision, to see how bad it is and in the event the system passes more quickly than they are predicting.  The Junior High boys are scheduled to leave Rolla at 4 pm, so we will make a final decision by 3 pm at the latest.

Please feel free to give us any input, especially about road conditions that you encounter during the day. The trip to Lebanon is primarily on the interstate, but we also understand that of you have to contend with other roads to get to the interstate, so we want to take that into consideration as well.

Also, let us know if you are going to be unable to check your email tomorrow afternoon, so that we can be sure to call you if we cancel.

clarification of Jan 31 games in St. Louis

We had hoped to be able to play 2 girls games in St. Louis. They were not able to schedule 2 games, however, due to facility time constraints. So only the Gold team will be playing. Hopefully, the JH team will get a chance to play the Patriettes 14u team this weekend!

When they come here, though, we will have 2 girls games.

Sorry for any inconvenience.

January 31st game schedule time changes

We have a confirmed game schedule for next Saturday, January 31st. They could not find a facility for the middle of the day, so the games will be later in the day than previously scheduled (remember, when I gave those times, I cautioned that they were not confirmed). I know this is actually better for those involved with Pirates of Penzance, because it should eliminate conflicts with rehearsals.. So here is the final schedule:

3:30 pm Junior High Boys vs. St. Louis Blue Knights
4:45 pm Girls Gold team vs, Patriettes Varsity B
6:00 pm Varsity Boys vs. St. Louis Blue Knights

The games will be held at a different facility than we have played at previously. They will be sending me a link with directions, and I will pass that on to you when I have it.

Ladies and coaches--

In double checking facilities and times, we realized this morning that we have made an error on your calendars. (it probably won't be the last, unfortunately : ~ )

ALL Tuesday practices at Redeemer Lutheran Church cannot start until 7 PM -- the gym is used by another team until then. We have the gym from 7 - 9 pm, NOT 6 - 8 pm.

PLEASE reply to this message to let us know you received it. We don't want people showing up an hour early tomorrow because they didn't get the message!

Thanks,

Schedule and Team Issues *Important!*

Hello everyone!

The coaches had a meeting with the girls tonight after practice, and (while we trust they will share what we talked about), wanted to get it into writing for all the parents who didn't happen to be there. Hang in there - it's long, but all important.

1.) The coaches have chosen to divide the girls up into two main teams - Blue and Gold. These divisions have been based on experience, age, and ability. Attached is the roster, with the teams divided - if you have any questions at all about which team(s) your daughter is on, please discuss it with the coaches. If your daughters have questions, encourage them to speak with the coaches about it, and not to the other girls.

2.) You will notice a "Junior High" team, in addition to the two main teams. This "Junior High" team is determined by age only (14 and under), and will be the team that plays in the Lebanon JH tournament, January 23-24th.

3.) We have assigned specific games to each team - please take careful note of which team your daughter is on, and therefore which games she needs to go to. The google calendar, as posted on the RHAA website, has been updated - each game now has either a "Gold" or "Blue" after it. Here is the direct link. http://www.rollaroyals.org/basketball-3/girls-basketball-team/girl . All the practices are still for all the players.

4.) This Thursday:

The coaches would like the Gold team to go down to Springfield for the game. Remember, the other girls are welcome to come along and support the team, but should not come expecting or prepared to play. The plan is to leave from Kroger at 4:00 pm. Our family is not going at that time and will not be able to give anyone a ride - if your daughter needs a ride, contact Coach Applegate.

5.) Remember that there is a Friday practice scheduled for this week. It will be from 7-9 pm at the Rolla Middle School.

Once again, thank you all for your flexibility - I know that this schedule stuff can be crazy, but you have all been wonderfully understanding. As always, feel free to ask if you are uncertain about anything. We try to keep the google calendar on the website up-to-date. Keep in mind that it will usually be more current than the schedules we e-mail to you.

Thanks,

Becky
