Hi,

Soccer practice starts week of 3 August (less than two weeks.) Our preseason practice in August will be on Mon/Tues/Wed from 6-8 at Worthington Elem. Practices will start at 6pm sharp. Being early is very much appreciated. Plan to arrive at Worthington 10 minutes early to give your son ample time to get to the field. We practice on the lower field at Worthington by the baseball diamond.  I need all players to bring soccer cleats and running shoes, shin guards, an inflated size 4 ball, water, and one white and one dark shirt. Don't forget to bring running shoes for the whole month of August. We will be running, coaches too.

The week that Howard County schools start we will drop the Tuesday practice. Monday's practice will start at 5:30 sharp with a run through the neighborhood and Wednesday's practice will start at 5:50pm. Both practices will wrap up at 7:30. Planning to continue practice at Worthington Elem. (I'll send an update as we get closer to the start of the fall schedule.)
The Select Tournament is the weekend on August 24/25. The total cost for the tournament is $330. The registration fee is $250 and the ref fee is $80 ($20 per game, planning for 4 games). Cost per player is $25.40.

The cost for names and numbers is $12. This year the boys will have a white and blue jersey. The guy that I use charges $6 per shirt.
  • Please bring a check to Monday's practice made out to me (Mark Ordowski) for $37.40 OR drop a check in the mail ... my address is 4617 HUNTLEY DR ELLICOTT CITY MD 21043
  • I need a parent volunteer that can register the team and attend the tournament meeting on 18 August.
    • Registration date is 18 August at the Church at Covenant Park. Team registration should be between 6-7pm (before the meeting). The tournament meeting will follow between 7-8pm.
  • I also need everyone to fill out the medical release (see attached). The form does not need to be notarized. The forms are needed from everyone in order to register the team for the tournament on 18 August. You can email back to me a scanned copy of the form filled in.

Most importantly, I also looking for a parent to help organize team social events. I would like to get the players and parents together before the tournament so that everyone has an opportunity to meet each other. Something simple, maybe take some time from practice or extend practice time or maybe meet at a favorite ice cream spot. Going down as a team to one of the University of Maryland soccer games is almost always a winner. Participate in a local 5K event Columbus Day Weekend.

Have a great week. For those of you who are new to the team I will be hang after practice to meet you and answer any of your questions.
