*UPDATE End of the 2nd week of practice

Hi Rookie Green:

Great job so far!!! Yesterday was a tough, hard hitting practice. Today we're going to take it easy on the kids and keep them fresh for the Jamboree. Please have them wear just shorts, their jerseys and helmet to practice today. ***UPDATE - PLEASE HAVE THE BOYS BRING SHOULDER PADS THOUGH FOR JERSEY FITTINGS AFTER PRACTICE.

Parents: Eric, Rob, Bill and I have appreciated the help and communication as well. One request though... starting next week, even if you've told us face to face about a practice that'll be missed in the future.. could you also follow it up with an e-mail? There are so many kids if we don't write things down at practice, it's difficult to keep track. For example... is anybody going to miss the Jamboree??

Thanks,

Coach Mike

PS: As things move along you'll slowly start to see us adding things here and there to the offense and defense. For example... quick tight end passes... etc... but at this level... it's basic!! Kids learning their assignments and learning how to play the game. It's been fun so far.. I hope your families have enjoyed it. mdardis67@hotmail.com
