SportsBeat #35 5 on 5 practices

There is limited practice space now that we have

begun games. Padre Field is available for practice on

Tuesday, Thursday and Friday evenings. PeeWee

and Junior teams are allowed to practice at 6:00pm,

Atom teams at 6:50pm and Bantam and Senior

Teams at 7:30pm on any of the above days. If your

game is on Monday, your team SHOULD use

Tuesday as your practice day. If your game is on

Wednesday, you can either practice Thursday or

Friday.

NEW***Summer Soccer*** We have added a new Summer Soccer program for

boys and girls ages 5 through 12. We are going to

play modified 3 on 3 soccer where each team will

field 3 players on defense and 3 players on offense.

Players will NOT be allowed to cross midfield from

their designated spot. At halftime, all the players that

were playing offense in the 1st half will be moved to

defense and defensive players will then move to

offense.

Parent Meetings/Players Ratings

**Smart Start 5-6 yr olds 5/18 9:00am

PeeWee 7-8 yr olds 5/18 10:15am

Junior 9-10 yr olds 5/18 10:45am

Bantam 11-12 yr olds 5/18 11:30am

Senior 13-15yr olds 5/18 12:45pm

**Smart Start: This is our new parent interactive

program to assist our younger participants in learning

the fundamentals of basketball in a structured, fun,

learning environment. We are presently looking for

one of our local elementary school coaches to teach

this program. For additional information, please

contact Mark at 954-327-3928.

NOTE: We have had complaints in our younger

age divisions in regards to the lack of talented

officials. We have recently signed an agreement

with SuperSports of Broward to assign all our

officials and I believe you will see a dramatic

difference in the professionalism and experience

in all of our officiated sports.

Girls Softball Thanks to a team from the Cooper City girls softball

program, we were able to add a 4th

team to the 14 &

Under girls program and will be playing a total of 6

games against this team throughout the month of

April.

Pitching Instruction Monday nights at 6:30pm, Cassie Famularo is giving

free pitching instruction to all the girls who are

registered in our girls softball program. Anyone

interested in learning how to pitch is welcome to

attend.

Baseball/ Softball Photo Day This Friday, April 5

th, The Sports Section will begin

taking photos of all the teams in baseball and girls

softball. Your team will be issued a picture packet

with a schedule of when your team is supposed to be

taking their photos. Please hand out the packets to

the parents on your team, and make sure your team is

on time. All photos are taken by the big trees just

north of the Pine Island Fitness Center.
