VFW

We are a few days away from our fourth tournament this season. The Jets tournament will be this weekend 7/29 and 7/30 at Hollenbeck Middle School in East Los Angeles. If possible can you please bring your practice jersey to practice on Wed. night 7/26/06 at Mariners. We need to get the boys used to looking at numbers again for this weekend. We have a game at 12:00 and 3:00 on Saturday and 3:00 on Sunday. Please remember to bring your tournament bags with an extra t-shirt and socks with your sweatshirts. Please try to have the boys in bed by 10:00 p.m. on Friday night. Feed them a good breakfast but not after 10:00 a.m., we will be giving them a light snack between games but nothing heavy for our second game. REMEMBER THERE ARE NO SLEEPOVERS THIS WEEKEND SO THAT THEY CAN GET THEIR REST. WE HAVE TWO GAMES ON SATURDAY AND THE WARRIORS ON SUNDAY. THERE SHOULD ALSO BE NO SWIMMING, BOWLING OR ICE SKATING THIS WEEKEND, STARTING ON FRIDAY. We also are going to try and cut out soda from the boys for the next three weeks, it is so hot in Las Vegas that we need them to cool off their bodies with their own sweat. Soda retains water and does not let them sweat. We will only have eight players for the three games so everyone will be playing heavy minutes. There will be a schedule for Las Vegas given next Monday after the tournament is over. We need to concentrate on this weekend before thinking about the Dodgers tournament. See you all tomorrow night, Mark
