Winter Info Consolidated

Cold weather uniform pieces;
    The Holloway winter jackets are being embroidered and should be finished soon.  Bob is outfitting all four of the high school girls teams with an Adidas hoodie that is fleece lined (black with white stripes) and a three quarter zip Adidas pullover (grey with red stripes).  Both will be embroidered.  Cost for both items embroided is $54.60 (covered by your $300 payment).  These items are in place of the red sweat shirt and black sweat pants. 

Regarding the above, I have a set of a medium and small.  I am attempting to get these into everyone's hand to try on and decide which size each girl needs.  I will keep everyone informed as these are passed around so you can report back to me the size needed for your daughter.
 
League information;
     We have to apply for Ohio South Soccer League OSSL.  If the Team qualifies for MRL Premier I league, we will drop out of OSSL with no penalty and only play MRL and showcases/tournaments.  If we don't qualify for MRL Premier I league, we will play OSSL and MRL but less tournamemnts.  FYI, OSSL is not as competitive as MRL.


Promotion piece for team;
     We are working on organizing a promotional "hand-out" at the showcase similar to what the U16 does.  Once I have a template with the Team/player information, I will email for everyone's review.

 
 

• Bob decided we are NOT going to do the Ohio Galaxies Showcase in Xenia that was originally schedule for 11/30 through 12/1.
• Instead we are applying for the Inagural Adidas Gateway Showcase held by King Hammer (local Cincinnati) on 11/22 through 11/24.  Once this application is confirm I will let you name but please mark you calendar.  This showcase is the same cost as the Ohio Galaxies Showcase, $700.
• We are signed up for the Adidas GSA Showcase in Fayetteville, GA (just south of Atlanta) for 12/6-12/8.  We will play one game each day, including Friday 12/6, therefore you will need to arrive at the hotel sometime on 12/5.  NOTE: For this showcase we will be staying at a Wingate, 7882, Senoia Road, Fairburn, GA 30213. I have block 18 rooms for 3 nights each, with a room rate of $89 night, including continental breakfast. There are 10 queen/queen rooms and 8 king w/pullout rooms. Each player's parent needs to call 770.892.3006 and ask for the "Adidas Invitational" block and chose which type of room you want and provide a credit card number to reserve the room.  Any rooms not reserved November 11th will be dropped.  Please call sooner than later and please do not call the hotel directly. 
• Disney Showcase information remains the same, no changes
• Disney Showcase - accepted - 12/30/13 - 1/3/14

Soccer Balls:

•  Bob wants the each girl to have the same quality soccer ball, which I have ordered.  Below is the link of the ball I ordered, and yes they are coming from the UK.  The cost per ball with shipping and international charges comes to just under $40 per ball.
