Saturday game

Girls Game Saturday --

11 am in Springfield, at Central Bible College.

I suggest you meet at Kroger and leave at 8:30 am. That should give you time to get to the college by 10:30 am

There are two attachments - one is a google map showing you the general location of CBC. The other is a written description of how you actually get to the gym... also copied below. For those of you who have been with RHAA, this is where we played the SWMO Eagles in basketball last year, as well as where we went for the Eagles volleyball tournament this past fall.

Central Bible College, Springfield – SWMO Eagles

As you head west on I-44, take Exit 77 (Hwy. 13 or Kansas Expwy.).  Turn right onto 13/Kansas and immediately turn right again onto Norton Road.  You'll pass the Zoo and the Fairgrounds on your left and come to a stoplight at Grant Ave.  Turn left and go half a block; take the first right into the CBC parking lot.  As soon as you turn in to the lot, make a sharp left and go north to the end of the lot.  Make a sharp right turn and head east through the lot for half a block or so. You should be able to see a building in front of you and down the hill, with a lot of glass on the front.  You'll probably see the trophy cases inside and people milling around the snack area. Follow a winding road to the left and then right into the lot by the gym. Use the entrance on the west side of the building that has stairs leading up to it.  The gate is right inside.  It's easier than it sounds!

another addition!

We have another change/addition to the schedule...we are going to scrimmage the girls 7th grade SIR team on Thursday, Dec. 10th from 6:30 - 7:30 pm at Wyman Elementary. I'm not sure how formal this will be, but we'll be working out the details and will let you know.

practice change for next week

Due to a conflict for the coach and his family, we have changed next week's practice date.

NO practice on Monday, Dec 7th.
Practice at Mark Twain Elementary from 6 - 8 on Tuesday, Dec. 8th.

I am waiting for confirmation from the SWMO Eagles as to the location and time of the game Saturday. At this point, it is scheduled for 11 am at Central Bible College. I will have more information by practice Thursday.

practice tomorrow

REMINDER --
Practice Monday, November 30th is at Redeemer Lutheran Church. Same time, 6 - 8 pm.
Feel free to email me or call (364-4858) if you need directions.

We may add a couple games to our schedule -- both are tentative. We need to be sure we have enough players available to schedule these games. Both would be 18U games.

• Saturday, Dec. 12th -- 5 pm
• Saturday, Jan 2nd -- time to be determined, probably afternoon.....(this would replace the practice on the schedule)

Please respond to this e-mail
1) I want to know you got it
2) Let me know if either date is a conflict for you/your daughter

Thanks

uniforms that don't fit

If you have a uniform piece that does not work for you, you may bring it to practice tonight. I will be there at 7 pm and can collect those pieces and possibly re-issue some. Most of you will have to wait while we order some new pieces.

Thanks

more about uniforms

A final  reminder to have your players try on their uniforms before they come to practice tomorrow night. (And parents, you have the final say as to the fit.) Please email me if you need a different size, but keep what you have until I ask you to bring it to exchange.

Yes, we are trying to use the uniforms we already have, but it is also important that they fit somewhat reasonably, so please don't be shy about telling me a bigger or smaller size would fit better. We are going to have to order a few pairs of shorts, so we might as well be sure everyone has the size they need. It is more costly to get new jerseys (because of the printing of logo and numbers), so we'll probably try to make due with those, but if we need to, we can buy some new ones.

If you did not get a uniform yet: 
I will NOT be at practice tomorrow night, but I will send a box of bags with Mr. Hall. Each bag holds a uniform for players who did not get a uniform Monday. Please take these home and try them on, then email me if you need a different size of anything, since I guessed at sizes and/or gave you what was left. Again, keep them until I ask you to bring them to exchange (if you need a different size).

New Players:
Each of you gets a white Royals t-shirt to use as a warm up shirt as part of your registration.
Please email me the following information:
1) T-shirt size (I suggest you go a size higher than what you usually wear, so it will be loose over your game jersey)
2)  Name to put on the back -- your first or last name -- siblings can choose to have an initial, too (like C. Cates for Christopher, since his sister Emily also plays)

Returning players may buy a new warm-shirt for $10 if they want a new one... please provide the same information requested above.

I've attached a t-shirt order form in case anyone wants to order additional shirts for family members. They come in navy, gold, and white. I am hoping to order some smaller sizes than are listed on the form, so feel free to add sizes you'd like to buy, and we'll see if we can get them. I need t-shirt orders by next Monday at the latest. (you may pay when they arrive)

Thanks,

Uniforms/parent meeting

Thank you for your patience last night as we distributed uniforms. It is very important that everyone try on the uniform they took home to make sure it fits. We are going to try to use the uniforms we currently have, but we will order some additional sizes if we need to. We are particularly concerned about the shorts fitting properly -- we don't want kids worrying about losing their shorts!

If you were not able to get your uniform last night, it is very important that you pick it up Thursday. I will just be assigning uniforms by my best guess of size, so you will need to let me know if something doesn't work. If for some reason, you are unable to attend practice on Thursday, please contact me to make arrangements to get your uniform.

Thank you to all who came to the parent meeting. We covered a lot in a short period of time, so please feel free to ask if you have any questions. I will include the agenda and calendar in the bag with your players uniform for those who weren't able to attend the meeting, so be sure to ask them for it Thursday.
