The Board meeting was attended by Becky Walters and Greg Nelson, both of whom are looking to join the board for the 2012-2013 soccer seasons.
The winter meeting with Sun Prairie and Marshall was held at the end of January and they were very positive. We will continue our in-house league with them with Dan Rolling taking over the scheduling for all teams involved.
Winter sessions continue to be very successful as we are averaging almost 20 players per weekend!! This is a great turnout and there have been a lot of positives. The sessions continue through the end of February.
Dan will contact the coaches to see what, if any, equipment needs replacing for the upcoming spring season.
The coaches for the spring have been set and almost every team has two coaches which is great to see. The coaches meeting will be held the first part of March with the traveling teams kicking things off mid March with practices. All teams will start playing April 14th if not sooner.
Dan is looking into the purchasing of four, 4’x6’ goals for the U8 and U7 teams to use as we move towards having them play set games for the Saturday Morning Program. The question the board has is where they could be stored as we don’t want to leave them on the fields after practices.
Goal anchors will also need to be placed on all of the goals this year to prevent them from being moved or tipped over. This is in response to state law that went into effect requiring all portable goals to be anchored down.
The next Board Meeting will be Wed March 7 at 6:30PM in the Village Hall. Board elections will take place at the beginning of this meeting.
