Pre-season recap

First games are Friday night!

We had a lot of trouble getting coaches this year.  We had to disband a BU10 team!  Fortunately we were able to absorb the kids into other teams, but it was hard.  I don't know what parents are thinking! 

This is really a failure of our previous coach administration - which was non-existent.  We get a good surge in U6-U8, it really is pretty easy - training is online, no pressure, teams are fun.  What we need to do, is encourage those guys starting in the middle of the season to think about getting the next level of training.

We did this with the referees - seeing who is having fun, supporting them, and encouraging them to go to class.  We can do this with the coaches too!

However, what I hated the most were the teams where the parents didn't even bother to get back to us.  I find this quite rude.  I wanted to disband those teams just because!  In any case, this whole division had better not expect any favors!
