EARLY PRACTICE THIS WEDNESDAY. WCSH6 filming for Fit at 5.

Practice will go from 4:15 to 5:45.  Please remember water.

Practice Tonight and CYC registration

Hello Gael Force parents and supporters.

CYC registration is upon us with all players needing to register by June 30th.  Tonight, I will be taking pictures for the player ID's they will need to register.  They are used to create the badge they'll wear at the event.

If you prefer to provide your own picture, please take a photo of your player from the chest up, wearing their jersey, number visible if possible (for team identification).  Send it to the mainegsa@gmail.com address.

Practice tonight will be 5- 6:30-ish with a concentration on "in the air" ball control.  As per normal, there will be drills focusing on 2 skills, then 2 scrimmages.  The 1st will utilize the skills we learned and the 2nd will be a full rules game. 

Remember to bring water tonight!  Also, remember shinguards.   I have 2 spares.

Coach James, Rob, Doug, and John will be there to start with James and Rob leaving after 6 to play in the adult league. 

CHANNEL 6 COMING NEXT WEEK!

We're trying again to get on the news and Kelly Labrecque is doing her best to give us great weather.  WE WILL BE STARTING AT 4:15 PM and going to 6 to accomodate the filming schedule.  They are filming from 4-5. 

Slainte!

Getting into the groove

Tonight was the first practice following the successful blitz in Canton last weekend.  The kids are really getting into the groove being with each other.  All of the kids are getting to know names by calling each others name when they pass to each other, sort of a forced"get to know ya!" 

We finished up with two great scrimmages and lots of sweaty, tired kids(sorry if they all stink..goes with the territory!)

The season moves on..more good weather please!

MGSA players invited to Youth Hurling Blitz in Canton, MA June 12th

More to follow on this, so stay tuned for an upcoming post, but we are trying to get an idea who will want to make the trip to Canton, MA on Sunday June 12th for a Hurling Blitz at the Irish Cultural Center.  They usually hold 2 each year, but with the Youth Championships in August, this will likely be the one true hurling event.  The trip takes nearly 2 1/2 hrs, so it is a comittment of a day.  The Tierney kids are definately attending, and we have room for 2 more in the car but we are trying to organize a car pool if people want to come down.  We'd plan to stop for dinner on the way home.

Kelly Labrecque from WCSH6, who was to film practice has advised against it.  We'll try again (perhaps Sunday?) soon.
