BAYSL Volunteer Hours for 2009-2010 U7 Teams

Good news!  At the team parent meeting last night, the U5-U8 coordinator, Donna Graham  said that our group of teams will not be assigned to volunteer duties until February.  Remember that as a participant in BAYSL, all parents are required to pledge at least 2 volunteer hours per player to BAYSL each season. 

You probably signed up for your volunteer roles when you registered your player(s) for the season.  As the team parent, I will be keeping track of volunteer hours fulfillment by parents on our team. 

If for some reason, you can't fulfill your hours, you can buy-out your time at a rate of $25 per player.  Checks for buy-out must be given to the Team Parent or mailed directly to BAYSL and made payable to BAYSL (with the players name on the check) at:

PO BOX 3322
Brandon, FL 33509

If you have any questions about your volunteer responsibilities, please feel free to contact me or Donna Graham, the U5-U8 Recreational Volunteer Coordinator. 

Play Hard!  Have Fun!

A Hand(ly)y Reference Tool!

I am always forgetting which field is which at JC Handly, so I am attaching a layout of the practice and game fields for you all to have just in case: BAYSL Fields

Welcome Firecrackers!

By now, most of you should have received a message from Coach Benz letting you know about the upcoming BAYSL season.  If you need more information, keep checking here and I will provide updates about the season.  It looks like we have a great group of players, and I hope everyone will have fun!

Practice starts on Monday, 11/16/09, on the S1C field at the JC Handley complex. 

Practices will be held on Mondays and Wednesdays from 6:00 to 7:30 pm.

It is important to bring: 

1. cleats,
2. shin guards,
3. water, and
4. a size 3 soccer ball to practices.

Remember, our first game is on Saturday, 12/05/09, so we'll have a few practices before games start.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.  I am excited to be your Team Mom this year and look forward to meeting all of you. 

Go Firecrackers!!!
