Extra 15 minutes:

We are adding 15 minutes to the end of each August practice. If you’re in a car pool situation and this presents a logistical challenge, your daughter is allowed to leave at our usual stop time.

Friday practices in August:

08/17/2018: Friday practice groupWe are also adding two optional (come if you can) Friday practices. This Friday’s practice is at Metro North Park, but it’s open to players from both Metro North Park and United Quest Park. We won’t penalize any players who are unable to attend the August Friday sessions.

We don’t plan to have regular Friday practices. We’re just looking to catch up for lost time, and early season Friday practices make sense right now since we don’t have Saturday games just yet.

Goalkeeper training:

We had originally planned to start our optional weekly goalkeeper training sessions this week. Since we’re on a special make-up schedule, we’ll shift our goalie training back one week.
