The HEAT will have a team (parent & player) meeting, at Long Park, Tuesday, June 17th, at 8:15 pm at the large pavilion. PLEASE DO YOUR BEST TO HAVE AT LEAST ONE PARENT AND YOUR SON AT THIS MEETING.  If you can't make it, please let Coach Jeff know. We will have fittings for the new VSA uniforms, it is very important that all players be fitted for their uniforms to assure we can place our order early and have the uniforms back in time for our upcoming tournaments. 

We will be discussing the upcoming season, as well as camps and tournaments. We will also  be looking for volunteers for various team duties. Open responsibilities include: STAR Volunteers (http://www.ncsl-soccer.com/home/110708.html), Fund Raising Committee, Tournament travel coordinator (hotel, transportation and activities), Uniform order coordinator, team "activities" coordinator (think of, and coordinate, "fun stuff" for the boys to do to get together a few times each season. This should really help with team building both on and off the soccer field)!   

We will be collecting our first team dues installment at the meeting tomorrow. Our seasonal dues payment  will be broken up into installments. We will discuss this in detail at the meeting. We will also advise of ways you can reduce, or possibly eliminate, your out of pocket expense for these dues.

For our new players, please email Coach Jeff (jkerxton@kerxton.com) your complete contact information. Please make sure to include all parent's names, cell phone, home phone and email addresses you want to make sure get copied on team communications. For our existing players, send anything you need updated.

See you Tuesday!
