Program Notes for the Week of 3/7/11:

Fundraising Note:
I believe that Mario Q. has sent out an e-mail about a road race fundraiser for 3/12.  These road races are an important element of our total fundraising package and we need the girls to volunteer to work them.  Other than the early time frame, the work is easy, fun, and they usually go home with a race t-shirt also.  The money that we raise goes right back into the girls program to support the team building camp, Strongsville Showcase, t-shirts, uniform socks, and events like the Alumni game.  We have stayed away from selling items and going door to door and our fundraising events all consist of "sweat equity" activities where we just put in our time and effort to earn money.  We need everyone's help at each event to ensure that we don't have to do the selling of items.  So, check your schedule and be sure to reply to Mario.


Soccer Site of the Week:
In keeping with the conditioning theme at this time of the year, this week's featured site is:

As the name would imply, this site is loaded with info. & videos on skills, strategy, and conditioning.  Once in the site, pick from the tabs on the left hand side to select specific topics.   The articles are written by former players, coaches, and others with appropriate credentials.   An interesting feature of the site is the soccer history tab.
