We will have a ladies soccer parent committee meeting next Thursday, March 11th at 6:30 PM in Coach Echeverria's room. This meeting is open to all parents who would like to help coordinate our team events, functions, and responsibilities. We have to discuss the hosting of Soccerrama and Freshman tourney this year. All team administrator positions need to be filled. _______________________________________________________

Note to parents:

Dear parents and players,

I hope all has been good during this break. It is time that we start to think about the next season. In the past we’ve held pre-season conditioning but I hope to change that this year. It is my concrete belief that high school athletes benefit from participation in high school sports. Therefore, rather than provide conditioning, I highly recommend that athletes participate in track and field. Even players involved in spring soccer should think about their conditioning and cross-training. It is a good idea to develop speed and physical condition in track. Coaches will work with the girls to develop them for their sport. Remember that track and field offers a flexible training schedule and many opportunities to compete and be recognized. Track begins Feb. 24.

I also recommend that players develop with a club in the spring, begin weight training, and take advantage of the activities at Ryle. Ryle has an open gym futsal Tuesday and Thursday in March. All girls are encouraged to participate. In the summer Ryle will have the 7 v 7 games, again, I encourage girls to make 9 people teams to compete.

Besides these opportunities, I want to talk to girls who want to play at the collegiate level and start to put together their portfolio. These girls should also attend camps during the summer and begin a weight training program. I will speak to them in March.

We will have a parent committee meeting in March and a parent/athlete meeting in April.

Conditioning will begin with the team after the last day of school (AM) until June 24
