Practice Starts Today

Well, practice officially starts today. See the previous post as to where the field is that we will practice on.

Tues & Thurs @ 5pm on the CHESTER PARK FIELD.

I will be wearing a bright orange cap, to make it easier for people to spot us.

Email info@umdskiteam.com with any questions. Also, if you plan to be on the team and have class during this time, please drop me an email as well.

Thanks,
Andy

NEW OFFICIAL PRACTICE FIELD

All,
Well, it's finally happened, we have been granted our very own dedicated field that we will have for the entire season. No more getting bumped around to other fields wherever someone else is not.

We will be practicing on the Chest Park Elementary school field, which we often would use in past years as well. The good news is that we can park there now as well and that hopefully means that we don't have to hop the fence all the time.

THIS MAP shows with an ugly GREEN X where the field is in relation to campus.

Keep in mind that I will likely be breaking out my bright orange cap again this year, so that we are easy to spot. We'll be playing a game that is a variation on Soccer, using a soccer ball.

Finally some updates

Well, I realize that it's been quite a while since my last post on here and that probably has something to do with the seasons. Once skiing is done, it seems that we spend the rest of the year trying to get caught up and then to get ready for the next season. If you wanted results from last year's Nationals, they can be found here: http://www.uscsa.com/nationals06.php. We didn't have the best of luck, but it was great to make it. We did have the most injuries, with Ranger and the Doo both going down, which was a real bummer.

ANYWAY. On to the new season. We are going to be having an informational meeting for all of those people that wish to be part of the team.

When: Thursday, September 21st at 7:00 PM
Where: Kirby 355-57

To inform others about our meeting we will have a table set up outside the
Bookstore on M, Tu, W, Th (Sept. 18,19,20,21). Feel free to stop by and say
hello!

If you are unable to make it to the meeting but would still like to
participate, please email info@umdskiteam.com so we know that you are still
interested.

You can also show up for our first dryland practice which is
scheduled for Tuesday, September 26th at 5:00 PM on the hill above Field 4 (Rugby Field).
