Super Bowl Fundraiser
This is a mandatory fundraiser; each girl will be responsible for 10 squares at $10 each for a total of $100. There will be 12 different pools. We will randomly pick one square in 10 of the 12 pools for each girl and place their name in it. There are 106 kids in the program so after we place all the names in, there will be 140 empty squares. You may sell more than the required amount of 10 and you will receive a 50% credit towards your dues per square you sell over the 10 (for example-if you sell an additional 10 squares you will be credited $50). If we sell more than the 140 empty squares we can always add another pool, if we don’t sell all of the empty squares then we will place TNL in the empty ones. It will be your responsibility to keep track of which squares you sell, we will just pay the winning squares to the player (parent). Please pay Jerry directly or your team rep (do not mail to the PO Box). Make all checks out to TNL Sports, Inc.(not to Jerry). See attached sample of the pools; we will draw the numbers the Friday or Saturday before the game or as the each pool is filled. Please email Jerry if/as you sell or need additional squares.

Here are how the payouts go (per pool)
$50 for the end of the 1st quarter score
$50 for the halftime score
$50 for the end of the 3rd quarter score
$200 for the final score

We also give $10 per square the touches a winning square (not diagonal), to create more winners even if you get bad numbers.

TNL Softball Mental Skills Training

TNL is launching a pilot program with John Kelly to work with the TNL athletes on softball mental skills training.  The game is 90% mental, right?  So let's focus some attention on issues like confidence, attitude, mental preparation pre-game, mental preparation in the on deck circle, work ethic, sportsmanship, team building and more.
