We received our official fall practice schedule. We start regular practices the week of August 8th.

• The Metro TOPS field is the small turf field formerly known as just the “turf field”. (Field 3 is now also a turf field, so we have to be more specific.)
• August 8th update:  We’ve been given the “all clear” to use the new Metro North Park TOPS field. (It has a padded backing instead of a rubber infill, so we won’t have to deal with crushed tire bits getting into shoes, socks and shin guards!) As of August 7th, the parking area nearest the TOPS field was still fenced off to store construction equipment and supplies. You may have to park a bit away from the TOPS field and walk around field 2 or around the fence to get to our field. Please remind the girls to stay safe by walking (not running) while they are in the parking lot!
• Before we start regular practices, please take 5-10 minutes with your daughter to review our practice session guidelines:  what to wear (and not wear), what to bring, and so forth.

Which / how many practices to attend?

We ask the girls to attend two sessions each week. For most players, these will be the two sessions at their home park. If a player has a schedule conflict with a session at  her home park, she’s welcome to attend a session at the other park, no reservation needed. (We’ll make sure she feels welcome!) If a player wants to attend an extra practice, she’s welcome to do so.

Bad weather procedures

Rain itself isn’t a problem, but waterlogged fields or lightning can cause problems. For info about how we deal with bad weather, please check our weather link.
