Update from Andy - Wed 6th Oct

Hi all

For those that couldn't make it to training yesterday, here are the key points of what Andy had to say.

1 - Training will move indoors as from Wed 13th Oct, using the facilities at Soccer City,
1 Benyon Pk WayLeeds LS12 6DP from 6:30pm to 7:30pm.
At the moment no funding has been received for this, so Andy is requesting that parents bring £1 with them on the night to pay towards the venue.

2 - Andy and Lesley Dooner are trying to organise a bag packing day at Morrison's, possibly Sat 6th Nov, the proceeds from this will go towards paying for the venue for training. Will update you on this once the date has been confirmed.

3 - Andy reiterated that parents should try and refrain from coaching the kids from the sidelines and continue to encourage them in a positive manner.

4 - Andy also said that the general behaviour of the kids needs to improve, so a couple of things have been implemented:
  • The kids have been informed that if they are disruptive they will be giving warnings which could result in them having to sit out for the whole training session.
  • Good trainer and reward badges will also be introduced and these will be given out each week to the players identified by the coaches as the best behaved players.

5 - Finally, Chris informed everyone that he has decided to step down from his coaching duties due to his current work commitments.

WELL DONE AND THANK YOU

All the coaches would like to say a BIG well done and thank you to all the players involved in the summer league. We have been very proud of their development over the last few months and how they have managed to get a place in the final.

Unfortunately we didn't get the result we desired and probably deserved in the final, but each player can be pleased with their performance on the day. One of the organisers said that this was the best match he had seen out of all the other finals over the last two weeks. A big thank you also to everyone who turned up to support, i'm sure this give the players a big lift.

Everyone now deserves a break and we are all looking forward to the winter season kicking off again in Sept. Watch this space for future updates. Cheers Rob
