I am calling for a quick team meeting tomorrow night at 7:30 before
pick up. We need to make sure people are on the same page and start
thinking about a couple of things.
Update on upcoming events:
*Sectionals* Sept 27-28
Everyone we are up to 13 people on the roster for sectionals. All
people who have made a practice, etc. That is sweet! Let's get
everyone out to practice this Saturday, only two practices left
between now and Sectionals.
Roster is: Mike , Hartl, Eric W, Eric T, Dan S, Dan G, Lance, James,
Jim, Aaron, Dave, Dennis, Alan. The whitey white bread names around,
go Elvis!
We need to start thinking about a place to stay. I am all for
getting one room and cramming as many guys into it as possible. Who
else is up for that? Who is traveling with a wife or girlfriend who
wouldn't be into that? I want the team to stay together, and would
like to get reservations in at a place soon.
*Lucky 7's* Nov 1-2
If you have been counting we gots lots of dudes. We even got dudes
who can't make sectionals but who have contributed at pick up and
practices, Edwin, AO, Hardy, Vinnie, etc. Potentially that's 17+ men
competing for 5 spots on the field. Do you want to only play every
third point and sometimes every fourth? I don't.
I would like to try for two Vegas teams. To do that, we need to
recruit more women. I believe we can play with can form two teams as
long as we get 7-8 women. Ashley, Su, Jen, Monica, Clare, please
commit to this tourney we need you. Everyone else, we need more
women, so get recruiting.
If we don't go as two then we go as one team and that means we start
cutting people. These are decisions for the next captain (could be
you), but what criteria do we want to use for who makes the team and
who doesn't and what is our roster cap? Potentially these are
harmful issues to the team, so I want to be as up front as possible
so feelings aren't hurt.
We need to make a commitment as one or two teams to Eric as soon as
possible. Nothing hurts planning a tournament as much as teams being
flaky. Eric when do you need a commitment by?
Get back to the group if you can't make the meeting.
