Dear all yall,
It's that time of year again. Time to start lacing up your cleats and dusting off your sweatbands for another action-packed season of ultimate. I can only hope yall have been working out over the summer, keepin up your throwing, and playing lots of frisbee, but even if that's not the case, it's time to turn that around! This season, your charming captains (Renzo "Baby Dong" Lalimarmo and Will "Still wears that pink hat" Tanenbaum) have the great pleasure of leading the team this season. Our hope is that, by upping the practice and workout intensity, coupled with effective and organized team management on the part of our admin council (President PJ "Blackout" Hemler, Vice-President Thomas "That guy who's been DJing all your parties" Hervey, Treasurer Dan "Thor" Dresser, and Oliver "I'm gonna be in Connecticut all summer" Kubrik) we can make it back to Regionals in the Spring.
That said, our preseason begins on Friday, August 3rd at 5:30 PM on Erickson Field; please, everyone bring a light and a dark shirt as well as water. Expect practice to last at least 2 hours, after which the team will hang out and have a picnic in the Giant parking lot till whenever. We will continue to hold practices every Friday in August at the same time and place, pending weather. Renzo and I will go over the basics of our offense as well as address any questions about the new direction for the team. These practices are open to anyone and everyone who wants to attend, so feel free to bring friends, potential rookies, etc. While not exactly mandatory, I cannot stress the importance of attending these practices enough; the sooner everyone gets back into the swing of things, the sooner we can kick things into a higher gear.
Our performance this season will be determined by how much we're willing to work for it.
We're gonna build a house.
We'll stay in it at Regionals.
-Will
