Parents/Coaches/Players:
Thank you for registering to participate in Mockingbird’s outdoor lacrosse league originally scheduled to play at E.P. Tom Sawyer Park. After cancelling games last week due to high heat index, and with the forecasted heat today, we must cancel this evening’s games as well. With increased chances of postponement of future dates, we have decided to move the league indoor to MVSC’s climate controlled facility at 3000 Mellwood Avenue. However, the league will now be played on Saturdays, beginning this week. The league will consist of 6 games total.
League Dates: Saturdays, June 26 through August 6 (No Games July 3)
Weekly Schedule:
9 – 10 a.m. – 3rd & 4th Grade League (skill warm up followed by 40 minute game)
10 – 12 noon – 5th & 6th Grade League (skill warm up followed by 40 minute game)
11 – 12 noon – 7th & 8th Grade League (skill warm up followed by 40 minute game)
League News:
3rd & 4th Grade – I will split them into 4 individual teams and issue jerseys this Saturday. Please arrive no later than 8:45 a.m. Maximum number per roster is 14, games format will be 7 v 7. If you are unable to attend the first game, we will hold your jersey.
5th & 6th Grade – I will split them into 6 individual teams and issue jerseys this Saturday. Please arrive no later than 9:45 a.m. Maximum number per roster is 14, games format will be 7 v 7. If you are unable to attend the first game, we will hold your jersey.
7th & 8th Grade – there are currently 24 kids registered, so I will split them into teams each week allowing them to play with and against their friends and offer a better balance of experience per team. I will issue jerseys this Saturday. If you are unable to attend the first game, we will hold your jersey.
I realize this move to Saturdays from Tuesdays may present a conflict for some players, for this I apologize. However, this move allows us to guarantee no future postponements of games and allow for more playing time for each individual player. If you are unable to participate, I am happy to issue you a full credit for any MVSC program or refund.
Regards,
Ryan Smith
