Get ready to go to Des Moines!! Yipee!! At least it's going to be sunny!! (Forecast)So when Heather found out that we're going to Iowa she bought tickets to go to Palm Desert for the weekend....hmmm am I missing something?
Either way I'd rather coach your daughters than golf and swim any day!
Also, I've been hearing rumors there's a party group amongst the parents. We'll just have to wait and see who they are!
Here's our Just For Girls itinerary: Download Here.
This has the weekend schedule and maps to the hotel from Lakeville, from the hotel to the field and our tournament schedule with field map. It also has a packing list for the girls and my expectations of their behavior during the tourney. There are also some nutrition suggestions for those late risers in the morning. Please ask them to read through the itinerary.
Meals: I have organized a brunch from Brueggar's Bagels after our first game on Saturday. We need a volunteer to go pick up the order and bring them back to the fields. I've ordered 15 cheese and egg bagels and 15 cheese, egg and ham bagels, along with 2 dozen bagels with cream cheese for families and the girls. Let me know if this is enough, you may want to bring your own lunch as well, but the time frame of getting healthy food in the girls' stomachs is tight.
Lunch: Option to cater from Olive Garden cost around $7-10 per person or is this too much pasta for people? Right now, it's lunch on your own.
The Butler's have reserved space at Spaghetti Works downtown for Saturday Night.
Goto Google Maps for all locations here.
Times: I don't expect everyone to be there by 8pm Friday night but if the girls can be in bed by 10pm we'll have a chance for Saturday breakfast. We'll meet in the lobby for a goal planning session and a fun game at 8pm Friday Night. Absolutely no swimming Friday.
For the ride to Iowa: I want all the girls to review the restart portion of the Learning Packet. I will have a short quiz for them Saturday between games. Please make sure they have a copy.
Ballskills homework: Download here.
Several of the girls have been doing an awesome job with this. I'm also seeing a big difference in the ones who are spending time with the ball. I firmly believe that these are skills that dedicated players need to practice on their own. Waiting around for a training session with a professional coach to do stuff you can do at home is a waste of good training time. Please download and print the packet. At least one homework sheet is mandatory each month.
See you Thursday!
