FIRST DAY OF PRACTICE! MARCH 8

THE FIRST FORECAST FOR THE DATE OF OUR FIRST PRACTICE HAS BEEN PUBLISHED:

CLICK HERE

AT LEAST IT DOES NOT PREDICT SNOW.

Sixth (correction) TCS Snow Day this year

In the well known words of British Coach Hildreth from another generation, "A foot of snow is an opportunity, not an hindrance."

March 2014 Practice Information

2014 Practice Information for March: 

Scheduled practices are Tuesday and Thursday afternoons, roughly 3:15 to 4:45, and Saturday mornings (see below). PLEASE DO NOT ASK TO PICK UP YOUR STUDENT UNTIL PRACTICE IS OVER. With only three days of practice per week, we need every minute of these practices.

We will have organized sessions after school two days per week, on Tuesday and Thursday. If others can help on those days, please let me know (as soon as possible!). We will usually have some students at TCS and some at Montville HS during these practices. Students are expected to attend all practices unless excused by the coaching staff. If there are regular scheduling problems (e.g., a job) let us know and we will work something out.

Saturday practices will again be at 8:30 a.m. sharp on Saturday mornings at Montville High School for both teams . PLEASE DROP THEM OFF SO THEY CAN BEGIN WARMING UP PROMPTLY AT THE TIMES NOTED. PRACTICES WILL GENERALLY END AT 10:00 ON COLD OR RAINY DAYS and in the beginning of the season, and by 10:30 on other days. Please be prompt in picking up your students at those times. Note this policy: If a student is not picked up at the time the workout ends, he/she will be taken to TCS and dropped off to wait indoors in the school lobby to be picked up. This ensures that the athletes will not be out in the cold for too long, and also allows those of the coaching staff to lead a (more) normal life! Thus, if you come to pick up your athlete and he/she is not there, proceed to TCS.

Saturday March 8 8:30 sharp first practice both teams
March 11 Tuesday Both teams
March 13 Thursday Both teams
March 15 Saturday Both teams
March 18 Tuesday Both teams
March 20 Thursday Both teams
March 22 Saturday Both teams
March 25 Tuesday Both teams
March 27 Thursday Both teams
March 29 Saturday Both teams: TIME TRIALS WILL BE HELD THIS DATE
