Cross COuntry Practice Schedule for Runners going to Citiies

Congratulations to ALL runners who ran at the Eastern Conference Finals at Thomson Park today. Ms. Carson kept sending us updates back at Clairlea to let us know how the races went and remind us that it's cold and windy, brrrrrrrrrr (no worries I was warm ans toasty in my classroom, he he he).
We had some outstanding finishes but most importantly is everyone ran their best race regardless of how you placed! We proud of all of you!

PRACTICES - If you're advancing to the city finals there will be an easy practice Friday morning for a quick 3 laps meet at 8:00 so you can get a little extra rest. If you're training both Saturday and Sunday on the weekend you may want to use tomorrow as a rest day (your decision).

SUNDAY PRACTICE  - If you're moving on to the cities we will meet at Centennial Park on Sunday afternoon to run the course. It helps a ton on race day to know and practice your course. Please come see me and tell me if you can make it.

PRACTICE NEXT WEEK - practices will be posted with soccer and football tournaments and practices being considered (such a busy time!!!)

CROSS COUNTRY BREAKFAST - Stay posted for the date and time of our Cross Country Breakfast to celebrate our amazing team and parent volunteers

5/6 Boys soccer practice after school Monday October 15th

Please come to practice to start for 3:20.  Practice will end at 4:15.

Also our tournament is the next day so this practice is quite important.  It will be in the gym if it is raining.  Reminder to parents that shin guards are required in order to play and cleats are highly recommended.

Girl's Soccer Oct. 15-19

This whirlwind week has come to a close, but the season is far from over.

Grade 8

The grade 8 girls have a playoff tie-breaker game Monday after school at Cedarbrook PS with the winner of that game moving on to the playoffs. With the mounting injuries, we will not be practicing Monday morning. For those girls that have not returned their jerseys to me, a) I'm not happy
b) please put them in my hand Monday morning.

Grade 6

Today's fantastic performance has resulted in a ticket to the Conference semi-final on October 22nd. More details to follow. Great job girls!!!!

With the X-country conference final on Thursday, we will practice Wednesday and Friday morning at 715-815.

Have a great weekend ladies!!

Grade 6 Girl's Soccer Tournament Tomorrow

Hi players and parents, our big day is tomorrow! I would like to send out a special thanks to Cedrika's mom and Husna's dad for helping out with transportation tomorrow and an honourable mention to Amelia's mom for the offer to help if there weren't enough cars. Your help is very much appreciated!

Players need to be at school for 815 tomorrow.  We plan on leaving by 830 at the latest. Corvette PS is fairly close so our travel time should be swift. Please come straight into the gym when you arrive at school. Running Club members please remember to bring your jerseys, the rest of the team will get theirs when they come to school. Running Club members should not be going to the RC practice tomorrow morning.

Tomorrow's weather is expected to be much colder than recent days, with a "feels like" temperature of 4 degrees for our 9am game.  Please come prepared. Warm pants over your shorts (if that's what you're wearing) possibly long sleeves for under your jerseys, extra socks (3 pairs at least), hoody (in case you want to wear it during the game), jacket, a packed lunch, snacks, water.  A toque wouldn't hurt either. If parents are staying to watch the games, that goes for you too. It's always better to be too warm with the ability to strip off layers than being cold.

Get a good night's sleep and have a good breakfast, see you tomorrow.

GOOOOOO PANTHERS!!!!!!

Boys 5/6 soccer practice is cancelled for tomorrow

Practice is cancelled for Thursday October 11th.  We will try to make it up Friday and or Monday.  Listen for announcements

Next week is short and packed. The grade 8 girl's have practices Tuesday and Wednesday morning at 7:15. These will be our final practices before a crucial game @ Joseph Howe Wednesday afternoon. We will be leaving school at 2:45. Let's get ready to play our best!!!!

The Grade 6 team will be equally as busy with practices Tuesday and Thursday afternoons from 3:15 - 4:25. The tournament is Friday at Corvette P.S, with the first game starting at 9am, followed right up with our second game at 10:15. The day will potentially progress into the afternoon, so please come prepared with a lunch, snacks and water. A few extra socks won't hurt either. Enjoy the long weekend and you also get ready to give your best!!

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Just a reminder, unless we have posted here on the blog, practice will run as scheduled. If weather doesn't allow us to be outside, we will be using the gym so please make sure you are attending our scheduled practices!

Here is the Junior course maps for the East Qualifying Meet at Thomson Park on Thursday, October 11th.   I'm trying to post the Intermediate and Primary maps as well. The Primary Course is 1.5KM and the Intermediate Course is 3KM.
Please get out for a run or two over the Thanksgiving weekend to keep your conditioning up. You've all been working so hard! Please check the Athletics board to see if your name is on the team list.
We will have our NEXT practice on Tuesday, October 9th (NOT WEDNESDAY - rest day)

Grade 6 Girl's Soccer

Thursday's practice is ON. As it seems there were more than a few players who were at practice on Tuesday without the coach, please remember to check the blog prior to leaving for school.

My apologies for the confusion Tuesday. As of Monday night the plan was to have practice in the gym Tuesday morning. Unfortunately, sometimes life gets in the way of the best laid plans.

Have a good night's rest and I look forward to getting in a good training session tomorrow. For sure.

Grade 8 Girl's Soccer Practice...

...is cancelled tomorrow (Wednesday).  As we discussed in our meeting after school, I will see you tomorrow at 3:15 for our game at Cedarbrook.
