Match Information for Saturday, 28 June

Dear Eagles Moms, Dads and Supporters:

We've got another fun weekend of touch rugby coming up, and here are the details:

U-11s
I will skipper the U-11s on the first real road trip this club has ever undertaken, way on out to Winchester.
Kickoff is 10:00 a.m., so all players should show by 9:30.
I figure a travel time of approximately 90 minutes, so recommend a departure no later than 8:00.
I have room for up to six rugby players (and moms/dads, if needed) in my truck. The rally point will be Collingwood Park, with a departure promptly at 8:00. Let me know if you need to carpool.
I anticipate about an hour of play, with another hour or so of hosting (if they do it right). If we depart by noon, that should have us back here by approximately 2:00 pm.
We still do not have directions from Winchester, and I will send those as soon as we get them.

U-13s/U-15s
Both will play at home on Saturday at Collingwood Park.
The U-13s will lead off with a kickoff at 11:00. Both U-13s and U-15s need to be at the field by 10:30.
Both SYC and Braddock Road will be coming, so we'll play 2 10-minute periods of U-13, followed by 2 periods of U-15, and on until everyon'e gotten to play and the kids are all tuckered out.
Coach Vonada will need the following assistance:
Line the field, starting at 9:00. If four folks help out, you can go over the lines I put down last Saturday and have the field done in about 45 minutes, flags, posts and all.
Someone needs to track our scoring stats for all of our matches, first and last names and scores, as I'm tallying this for all teams.
Kelley Perconti, Sue McKinney and the rest of the volunteer U-13 and U-15 parents have gotten a really good handle on hosting, so take their leads. We may need a volunteer or two to make a quick run to the Safeway for last-minute items, but that's easy to do.

Jerseys
We are still waiting for our jerseys, and will distribute them as soon as possible. Players who already have a jersey from past play should wear it, to show our colors.
We have the loaners for wear once more.

Mouthguards
All players bring your mouthguards, especially the U-13s and U-15s as we're going to work on tackling and contact at training tomorrow night. A player without a mouthguard will not participate in contact training, and will not play in tackle matches.

Man of the Match Trophy
Last Saturday's man of the match winners need to bring their trophy to their matches so it can be awarded to this Saturday's man of the match. See you at practice tomorrow evening.
