Bulldog Bash at Westfield HS Dec 28, 29, & 30

All

Just wanted to let you know about the high school tournament that will be held at Westfield HS during the holiday break (Dec 28, 29, 30) - it looks to have some great competition and there are some excellent girls' team in this year's event. Local girls' teams participating include Westfield, Centreville, Flint Hill, Madison, and Freedom SR (some of the girls who have helped with our clinics will be playing for Westfield - Dani, Allie, Yawrely). PLEASE NOTE that ALL youth players get in FREE if they wear their jerseys (and are accompanied by a paying adult). Regular admission costs are $6 per day (good for all games on that day).  A three-day tournament pass is available for $15 (good for all games in the tournament).

If you have a night where you are looking for something to do, bring the girls out and enjoy a morning, afternoon, or evening of basketball!

Basketball Clinics Next Week

All

I hope you are all having a wonderful holiday -

Amy, Avery, Kayla, Shayna, and Sami have expressed an interest in
attending the clinics next week. Right now, due some conflicts, I know
that I am personally targeting Monday (27 Dec) and Friday (31 Dec).
However, we're trying to find out if anyone else is interested. If you
are, please let me know by Sunday, so I can send out a message Sunday
night and maybe we can arrange some carpooling transportation. BTW,
I'm still trying to see if we can get some type of team discount -
hopefully, I'll know something by the 26th.

Once again, heres the clinic information:

---------------

Game-Time Skills is holding a basketball clinic at The Potomac School
Dec. 27-31 from 9am-12pm. The clinic is open to boys and girls of all
ages. Players can register for the entire week or for single days.
Cost is $200 for the week or $50 per day. I am attaching the
registration flyer to this email. If anyone has questions or would
like to register, please have them email me.

Game-Time Skills is focused on skill development in each individual
player. We will spend time on skill building drills, focusing on
correct form and technique, as well as implementing those skills in
game situations. Please pass this information to all of your players
and other coaches you may know.

Thank you and have a wonderful Holiday!!

Saturday's Game

Winter Mustangs,

(FOR THOSE PLAYING ON MY COUNTY TEAM, THIS MESSAGE IS REGARDING OUR
2ND TEAM)

I just got our schedule for this Saturday - we will play at 5:30PM at
Falls Church HS. Please TRY to be there by 5PM (as far as I can tell,
this should not conflict with any of the U10 FCYBL games (I think
Mercer plays Vienna at 3:15 at Liberty - hopefully you will be done on
time and can come straight to Falls Church).

URGENT: Please bring the reversible Mustangs jerseys I gave you last
summer (everyone but Emily should have one) - if you don't have one,
please let me know, I'll try to have a few on hand - Wear black shorts
Here are the primary players for this week - We've got twelve which is
more than we will normally have, but if possible, I'd like all twelve
to come so we can try to use this as our opportunity to get organized
(everyone else is welcome, but I don't think I can play more than 12
players this week) - If anyone on this list has a major conflict or
will not be attending this weekend, please let me know as soon as
possible.

Amy
Avery
Tatiyone'
Emily
Erin
Grace
Kate
Ruth
Sami
Sarah
Savannah
Tess

OK - that's it! Looking forward to seeing you on Friday. BTW, if
schools are closed tomorrow, they may still have games as scheduled on
Saturday. I'll send more information regarding the gym use hotline.
As always, please let me know if you have any questions.

Weekend's Game

All,

We will most likely play our first game sometime early Saturday
evening (should not interfere with any FCYBL travel games). I should
have details later tonight or by tomorrow morning. I'll put together a
roster for this one and we'll go from there.

If anyone has any questions, please let me know.

Ed Knox
edknox@mac.com

URGENT - PLEASE RESPOND TODAY!

All

I know the FCYBL travel schedule has not yet been published for U10
girls, but aside from that, please RESPOND to this email ASAP with
your schedule conflicts for this weekend. We will play either Saturday
or Sunday and I want to try to maximize our participation - they are
trying to put the schedule together tomorrow, so I need your input
ASAP (everyone PLEASE respond - if FCYBL is your only conflict, please
let me know, I'll see that schedule when it is published).

Thanks!

Schedule & More

Mustangs

Hope all is well and that everyone is handling the new wave of cold
weather!

Since the county has yet to release its schedule, we will not have a
game this weekend. However, I have acquired a court from 6PM - 8PM at
Hoop Magic (please try to be there a few minutes early) on Sunday
evening. If possible, I would like everyone to come so we can put it a
foundation. This will probably, be our only practice this winter,
however, starting next week, I will invite everyone to attend "skill
days" practices that I run with my SYA team.

Thanks - I look forward to seeing you on Sunday!
