Spring League is upon us!

Spring League is upon us!

I have to admit, Shutterfly is a GREAT tool for team management.  They have a deal with AYSO to generate the teams automatically, and it is fantastic!  We got an email stating that several thousand sites need to be setup to keep the deal going, and I really hope that they keep it!

Besides having the roster automatically generated, you can add and change the rosters.  You can add photos.  You can put in the practice schedules and games with the address; parents can get a map autogenerated.  And the system will automatically email reminders for each event.  You can assign things like the snack schedule, or let parents sign up themselves.  You can send mass emails to the whole team, and parents can up load photos and videos to share.

All in all, it makes managing the team a piece of cake!

I spent a little time tidying up the roster with new players, then entered the games and 1st meeting, then sent out a mass email to everyone so they can view it and sign up for snacks and refereeing.

Shutterfly - not just for photo albums anymore!

Season starts Saturday!

Well, we are here at the brink.
I managed to meet the BU8 team today; we picked a name.
Since the uniforms were black and white, it came down to the wire for Dark Eagles, and Killer Whales.
Dark Eagles won!

We then had a little practice; we'll see how we do on Saturday!
