MLS Coach’s Club information is on the table for anyone who would like to join. MOSA and Jersey Coast are going well in spite of the weather. Any traveling teams that are using the schools’ gyms need to make sure that all trash is cleaned up.

For a smooth season, please make sure that we have all head coaches’ and assistant coaches’ phone numbers. Communication is the key to a successful season. Please be sure that schedules are handed out to all parents of your players, especially players who have parents who are divorced or separated. COACHES ARE NOT PERMITTED TO CANCEL ANY GAMES!!! If you cannot attend a game, please contact a Board member and someone will cover your team. Make sure you have an assistant coach to avoid this problem. This coming Monday, April 7th we will start training our recreation players. It has been suggested that each player have their name on their shirts so that the trainer can call them by their names. In case of bad weather we might be able to use the schools with the trainer. More information to follow. An issue surfaced about an injured player taking part in practices and games. As long as the doctor has signed a release form that the child can play, the child can, in fact, play. If playing the sport aggravates the injury more, then the child should not play until the injury is healed. Please use common sense.Quartermaster: ProgressOld Business:Saturday, May 10th will be the Scavenger Hunt. This will be held as our club’s fund-raiser.
