From: Joel Banta

Parents,

I just wanted to give you some information before I leave for Georgia this Saturday. First of all I have attached some fitness exercises that we will be doing in August upon my return. The players need to be working hard during the month of July to come into the pre-season fit to play. They will be tested on the first day of practice and every one after for the next 2 weeks, and if they do not finish the 120 test they will not be allowed to play small sided games at the end of each session until they pass the test.(please encourage your son to spend this next month working out with and without the ball) Also I have listed below the training schedule for the month of August, until school starts. As well as that we have picked our tournament dates for the fall and they are listed also. Finally some of you have still not registered!! If you do not register by July 1st we can not determine if you are committed to play, and we need to register for league play. I can not register a team that only has 12 players that are committed. This means 5 of the selected players for our team have not committed and are holding up the process! We will not be able to play in the challenge league if these five do not register immediately.

Thanks
Joel

Trip Advisor info

With our first game at 12:30, some may choose to drive up Saturday morning instead of Friday night.  I have talked to the Hotel Group-Sales coordinator, and she has been very good to work with. At this time, all our names have been sent from CESA to the Fairfield Inn, and we have individual confirmation numbers. If you want to cancel Friday night, call 864-527-6122. Make sure she knows you just want to cancel just Friday and not the entire weekend. You may want to wait until early next week to verify that the schedules still haven't changed. However, you may not want to wait until the last minute because these rooms were secured via contract.

New Fall Practice Schedule

Starting next week (Aug 18)

Parents and Players, I have to make a change in the practice schedule for the fall. This will free me up for an early training time with the Academy players on Thursdays.

Tues 5:30-7:00 U15's
7:00-8:30 U18's

Wed 5:30-7:00 U15's
7:00-8:30 U18's

Thurs 7:00-8:30 (Both Teams)

With the new schedule I can have 2 separate practices with both teams and also allow each player 3 training sessions a week. Please note that practice times may run over an extra 15 mins each session. So that you know on Mondays and Thursdays I will be coaching the Academy in the early time slot and on Mondays I will be assisting older girls and boys teams in the later slot.

No practice during July

Just FYI in case you didn't hear.  Joel will be out of town for most of July.  There will be no specific training for our team until early August.  Joel may pass along optional training opportunities (such as other CoastFA teams, etc.) if you want to participate.
 
I think we'll probably start back during the first week of August.  More details later.
