Hi Ladies,

It looks like we ref first.  I will need everyone there by 8:15 and not a minute later, I'm being generous already as I'm certain all other teams will be there when doors open at 7:40.  If your late it will reflect in your playing time for the following game.  Let me know if you can't make it.  Let's dominate this tournament, I really think we can win it.  If we remember our defense and hit the way we did in our last practice then we will do well.  Also, remember we will be counting missed serves, just putting nice and easy in zone 7.  

This is not a CEVA sanctioned event which means you will pack your own lunches.

See  you Saturday.  Email with any questions.  

Thanks,
Rachael

That means we play first thing in the morning, please show up at 7:15 get situated and get your gear on, we will need to start warming up right away, a solid warm up will be important after sitting in the car  and waking up early, so get it going right away, I will be in the coaches meeting and I expect that when I'm done I can go onto the court and see my whole team warming up.


IMPORTANT:  Lunch, we didn't get enough parent volunteers for this tournament and since I had my baby I have been unable to coordinate it, so this time we are going to have to pack our own lunches.  Remember the players can not leave the facility so please pack a lunch and plenty of snacks and drinks to last the whole day.

Ladies-
It's really important that we win our pool, if we want to move up in the rankings and start playing against tougher competition.  Our goal is to stay focused on the task and play each ball to the best of our ability.  We have to continue to improve so this tournament will be very important to show that we deserve to move up and play against tougher competition.

Here we go!
