Jerseys and shorts must be returned on the last day of training which for the JV team is Thursday. This won’t be the last event of the season though, we will have a whole program event at the end of the season in which details will come out once the varsity season is over.”

Per Team Linkt message on 10/5/2023:

“Good morning everyone –

I’m sorry, but I think we need to cancel the spaghetti supper this week. We’re having difficulty finding an appropriate venue. We had hoped to have practice out at our place, but that won’t be possible this week.

We will happily provide snack this Saturday at Albany, with our sincerest thanks for your understanding. Is this a bribe? Maybe. 😉

Yours in Christ,
Laura Zim”

If you did not get the email from Mrs. Gravel here are the details for the game tomorrow:

Saturday, Oct 21 at Oostburg High School 410 New York Ave, Oostburg, WI 53070
Game Time: 4pm
 
   We do not know yet what the entry fee/ticket is for spectators but prepare to have $6-7 per person in cash ready. I’m not sure what the fee was yesterday out of the top of my head but on Tuesday night I went to see Waunakee Vs. Beloit Memorial and the fee was $7. Below is an image of the facilities map at Oostburg to help give a better idea about their soccer field’s location

I know tomorrow’s game is pretty far out but all the support from friends, family, and staff from the three schools would be greatly appreciated by all of us. On Monday’s practice to inspire the boys I shared the history of our program which started in 2014. By far with the inclusion of our JV team this year for the first time ever, this is the most successful season ever for our boys team. A couple years ago in 2021 we made the regional final, the game we play tomorrow, for the first time ever. We made it last year as well but did not win it, either in 2021 and 2022. We have a history of upsetting teams and I am so confident we can do it again tomorrow. We are hungry to do it for the first time and I couldn’t think of a better group of young men to have the opportunity to accomplish this with. In order to do that we need all of your support so please come out if you can and invite as many people as possible!

Thank you! As always if you have any questions please feel free to reach out.

Best,
Benny
