Thanks to all the juniors who came out to juniors night. Here is the updated dates/schedules for the upcoming season:

U-18 Boys practices are scheduled to being Tuesday, June 8th @ 7 PM and will be every Tuesday and Thursday through the summer. U-18 Girls practices are scheduled to begin Tuesday, June 15th @ 6:30 PM and will be every Tuesday and Thursday through the summer.

First games are scheduled to begin Wednesday, July 7th, 2010. All games will be on Wednesdays through July and August. Most will have a 7 PM kickoff. This means registrations and payments need to be received by Monday, July 5th, 2010 if you want to be eligible to play in this first game. We will continue to take payments and forms beyond this date. However, the AJRA needs more concrete numbers in order to plan the season schedule so we need players to be bringing in their registration forms and payments ASAP!! They have set a deadline of Friday, June 25th, 2010 to get a MINIMUM of 10 players registered per team in order for them to schedule us into the league.

If you have questions or concerns, feel free to email Alexa Fleming (Club Registrar).

Mini’s and Junior’s Schedule

Alexa — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 20:00:22 +0000

The mini’s and junior’s schedule has been posted by the AJRA. You can find the webpage here.

First games for MINI’S are scheduled for Saturday, May 1st, 2010.

Games for mini’s are festival style, so they will be pooling all of the children from each age group to make the teams — that is why there are no specific team times on the schedule, only age group times. Please show up for the start of your age group time.

First games for junior’s (U-18) are scheduled for Wednesday, July 7th, 2010.

Games for junior’s will be team based, so once final team numbers have been determined a more detailed schedule will follow.
