Training reminder, particularly U6s & U7s

Welcome to the Leichhardt Saints! Just a reminder that, weather permitting, training will begin this coming week - that's Wed 10th March for U6s & U7s (and U8s too), at 4:45pm sharp, on King George Oval. The park cannot be accessed via Darling Street, you will have to enter from westbound Victoria Rd; turn left on either Callan, Toelle or Clubb. Team lists will be posted there.

If there is any uncertainty about the weather, please make sure you have signed up for the mail list through the 'Mail List' tab on the user menu at right. Council updates its grounds closure information line (9367-9190) at about 3pm each day, so you can check that if you are concerned and haven't had an email about it.

If someone would just volunteer to run it, we'd like to have a table set up to sell shorts, socks and second-hand soccer boots. Come on over to the canteen if you can help! After your first night of training 2010, please stay and enjoy a sausage on a roll prepared on the club's brand new barbeque. (Remember too, all players must wear soccer boots and shin pads to all training sessions as well as games). See you on the pitch!

Training Times

Details of training times and days for the junior teams have been added to the Training page.

Clinic

Traditionally, we have run a player's clinic during the first school holidays each year. The club is hoping to do so again this year and is working towards organising it for the second week of the hols - Tues Apr 13th to Thurs Apr 15th. This will be confirmed in the coming weeks, and further info will be posted here and sent out through the .... mail list!

Equipment Collection

Robert, Equipment Officer Extraordinaire, is keen to get started distributing training equipment, and has kindly volunteered his time to make it available to those coaches who are returning to the job in 2010. He will be at the storage container at King George Oval on Tues, Wed and Thurs (2nd to 4th March) from 5:30 to 6:30 and the following week Tues, Wed & Thurs (9, 10 & 11 March) from 5 to 6pm. If you are someone who has coached previously and know you will be doing so again this season, please go down and see him during one of those times. This is especially important for teams that will be training at Sydney Secondary College Leichhardt, who will not have gear access at that field - getting organised early will make that first training session so much easier. If you are not sure whether your team has a coach, then sit tight for now - team formation is still a work in progress for most age groups. If you would like to be a coach please contact This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it to register your interest.

Also, we really need a volunteer to take care of merchandise sales at King George on a Wednesday night from 5pm please!

Training begins the week of Tues 9 March. Most teams' training times are published under 'Training' in the Information tab, above.
