A message from Nigel ...Players/Parents,
A great weekend by all, the weather was as predicted (yukky wet!!) but with the help of the "Men" (Russ and Brad) and the "Ladies" (Robyn and Sue) the girls stayed dry under the biggest tarp of all time, had great meals and great care.
Robyn, you were super. The organization of the meals/travel etc was first class...thank you.
Susan, our additional team mom, you had just arrived and we put you to work immediately, you did so without hesitation....thank you.
Russ, we could not have done this without you, the tarps/transporting players and the transport of gear to and from the camp...thank you.
Brad, you da man!! The energizer bunny at all times making everything right....thank you.
Ken Garraway, the fields, the tent to stay dry, the game against the boys, the player feedback and advice were all made possible by you....thank you.
Players, well done on and off the field. Nothing was going to stand in your way of being positive and enjoying your time together. You rule at Saratoga speedway!!!...thank you.
No training Tuesday, back at it Thursday at PISE.
Take care,
Nigel.
