SUMPMLAEYREREFVEEESNTS Captain’s Practice – What is this? The seniors and returning letter winners will be hosting team play opportunities. These sessions are open to anyone and an opportunity to play together in the off-season. We have boys spread out on many different competitive teams, this allows them to keep in touch. For June, the sessions are every Tuesday and Thursday at South County fields. 6pm-7:30pm Carson Clancy has taken the reigns, any questions – you can contact him through teamsnap. High School Preseason Camp WIN Institute will be hosting a boys and girls high school opportunity in September. The flyer is attached. Player self-assessment Take time to reflect on your individual game. What are your strengths? What are your weaknesses. Make a plan for yourself to refine your strengths and improve on your weaknesses. We expect a very competitive selection process this October. MINDFULNESS JOY DEDICATION GRATITUDE



PHYSICALS AND PAPERWORK There is a new process to upload all of our athletic paperwork. The directions are attached to your email. All players must have an account in home campus. All of the documents for parental signatures are there. The physical form must be physically filled out by your physician and then uploaded to the account. Thank you for taking care of this responsibility ASAP. FUNDRAISING We are asking players to seek out businesses that wish to support our program. The pamphlets will be attached to your email. It is great when the boys solicit sponsors, it provides them the opportunity to highlight our program and meet members of the community. Coach Winkler’s information is on the flyer should a potential sponsor have any questions.

JUST DRIBBLIN ABOPLUATY(EWROFREDESSFROM THE COACH): Personal Responsibility Now is the time to take a breath. It’s summer time and you should take a vacation, read a book, hangout with friends, and kick back a little. That doesn’t mean to leave the soccer ball a corner of the garage and just play video games on the couch for 2 months. Take responsibility for your fitness, your skill development, maybe a summer course to improve your grades. No one is going to do things for you. You have to make a plan for the summer and get after it. My topic for Motivational Monday for 6/5 has to do with leadership. Leadership does not just fall to the captains. Every player can be a leader. Many players just follow. If practice breaks down because teammates are goofing off, a leader will demand the team to get back on track. A leader may not say anything but they may increase their effort to encourage others to do the same. It is too easy to laugh at the behavior and fall in with the crowd. Does that help the team? Does that help you – as an individual? We (coaches included) have often shrugged some of this behavior off to our youthfulness of the team. That can no longer be an excuse. Our schedule will be significantly tougher than any year previously. Our expectation level is significantly higher. This team should be competing for a district championship, that only happens if we embrace our core values and we hold each other accountable. Ask yourself – “How will I make an impact this year?” “How will I make my teammates better?” #BELIEVE #LIFTEMUP MINDFULNESS JOY DEDICATION GRATITUDE
