Boys' Soccer Update... Wednesday, April 22, 2015

Unfortunately the Boys’ Soccer team is folding from LK league play due to lack of committed players.  This has been a tough and disappointing decision for those wanting to play and the coaches. 
However, they are committed to playing in the two tournaments but need some help with drivers/chaperones:

1.         Need for drivers for Tilbury on Friday, May 1: in the morning to Tilbury and in the pm pick up from Tilbury.  As of now, Coach Roger has no coaches or volunteers to help him with this. 
2.          Need for drivers/chaperones for the Christian Schools Tournament on May 8 and 9.  As of now Coach Roger has no coaches or volunteers to help.  This tournament is in the Burlington/Oakville area and the team will be staying at Redeemer College University.

Please call or text Coach Roger’s cell 519 365-4788 as soon as possible to ensure that they have the drivers necessary.  Thank you.
