Upcoming Week!

OK Green Conference, here we come!

Big week...for multiple reasons: getting our minds right for the upcoming start of the school year, Holland, Byron Center, puzzle pieces, Dirty Shirt effort, living up to our "one word" on a daily basis, being top 10 guys, playing to our POTENTIAL, etc.  Let's do this!

Here goes with the tentative schedule for the upcoming week:

**Monday: home game vs. Holland...meet in my room no later than 3 PM...wear official gray...Mikah = meal/vid...Anthony/Merrill = ball boys.
**Tuesday: 3-5 PM training...wear black.
**Wednesday: home game vs. Byron Center...my room by 3 PM...wear official gray...Bryce = meal/vid...Kyle/Spencer = ball boys.
**Thursday: 3-5 PM training...wear black.
**Friday: 10-noon training...wear gray.
**Monday, Sept. 4 (LABOR DAY): 5-7 PM required training (planning for turf field with an away game at Holland Christian on their turf the next day...stay tuned as we have to work it out with football)...wear black.

Note: players and family members, if you haven't already in the past and would like to now, please feel free to sign up for free text reminders during the course of this season by texting the message "@jvvarsity" to the phone number 81010!

Looking forward to another week with the Hamilton Boys Soccer Family! Go Hawkeyes!

Glass half full: we are undefeated on the season!

That said, we can and NEED to get better...especially with tough OK Green action on the horizon.

Let's get back to work tomorrow! :)

(Note: will talk "Dirty Shirt" award, puzzle piece, and DeVos Hospital first thing...plus will hear Will sing at some point!).
**Tuesday: 10-noon training on the turf field...wear gray...6 PM SPECIAL SPEAKER IN THE HS AUDITORIUM FOR ALL SPORTS PARENTS...7 PM VARSITY SOCCER PARENT MEETING IN MY CLASSROOM (ROOM 111)...7:15 STUDENT-ATHLETE (JV/VARSITY PLAYERS) MEETING WITH SPEAKER IN THE AUDITORIUM.
