CONGRATS Girls 5/6 Soccer Team, the CITY CHAMPS will be on October 25th at Monach Park. Permission forms will be sent home sometime next week.

CONGRATS Boys 5/6 Soccer Team on their win today! The next tournament will be on the Tuesday, October 18th - these games will be the semi and conference finals! It will be during the day, so the Coaches will be sending home permission forms that need to be handed back by Tuesday, the latest!

Practice for both teams will be on Monday, October 17th after-school from 3:30-4:30pm! 

Running Club and Cross Country Update

 As mentioned yesterday, runners had a chance to run their distance today, as fast as they could. Those who came in within the required timeframe made the cross-country team.  Those who did not make it in the required time are invited to come to the meet but will participate in the Fun Run which is a non-competitive, shorter route and is just for fun! Competitors are coming home with a blue permission form and fun run participants are coming home with an orange permission form. Please bring these to this Friday's practice!

There were some runners who did not come today. They will have one more opportunity this Friday morning to run their distance. 

** Running Club will continue to run until the final cross Country meet (October 26)** All students are welcome and encouraged to come out every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday even if they are not going to the meet. (there may be the odd practice when we only ask competitors to be present)**

** All runners who are competing are EXPECTED at EVERY practice going forward. Missed practices may result in the removal from the team. Competitors are expected to speak to their coaches should they be away. **

Intermediate Girls' Soccer

This week's practice schedule:

Tuesday, September 27

Wednesday, September 28

Thursday, September 29

To Race or NOT to Race...

Students in Grades 3-8 who have been working hard in the running club have been given some information to think about over the next couple of days. 

Going forward, everyone has 3 OPTIONS:

Option 1: I want to continue coming to Running Club for fun and exercise! I have NO interest in competing at the meet this year. 

Option 2: I want to come to the meet on October 13, but I only want to do the FUN RUN - (this is an easier route, which is not a race but gives the kids a taste in case they would like to compete next year.) Students cannot choose to do both fun run and competitive.

Option 3: I want to compete in the meet on October 13.

Those interested in Options 2 or 3 will be invited to the meet as long as they can run their allotted distance. In order for the day to run as smoothly as possible, we are unable to take those who need to walk. 

This Wednesday's practice is VERY important! We will be talking with all runners in hopes to get an idea of who will be going to the meet for options 2 or 3.  Permission forms will go out before the end of this week! 

If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to send them our way!
