By | November 1, 2017

Daylight Saving Time ends Sunday, November 5th. This will lead to some practice schedule adjustments between now and the start of winter break (Sunday, November 19).

We’ll adjust our practice time from our usual 5:00 – 6:15 PM slot and go 4:45 – 6:00 PM (or dark) instead, still on Tuesdays and Thursdays on the MNP TOPS field. The 4:45 PM start may be a logistical challenge for some families. We won’t penalize any players who can only arrive at 5:00 — we just ask that they arrive with enthusiasm!

MNP goalkeeper training:

Due to lack of light, we will stop our Thursday goalkeeper training sessions after our November 2nd session. We’ll resume MNP goalkeeper training in the spring.

United Quest Park

No change from our usual Monday / Wednesday 5:30 – 6:45 PM Quest field 7 time slot. Quest field 7 has lights, so we can keep our current practice schedule.

UQP goalkeeper training:

We’re not yet sure about our Wednesday goalkeeper training sessions. We’ve been solo on Quest Park field 7 so far, but other teams may be shifting to Quest Park field 7 after Daylight Saving Time ends. If we have space, we’ll continue our goalkeeper sessions until the end of the fall season.
