Training on Sunday13th September
Dear U9 members,
After a hectic start to the season, we now have a good list of kids registered at U9s. Please still try to encourage more friends or acquaintances to join up. All of the kids should now be registered and have their new kits, which we hope they are happy with.
Anthony Tse will not be available this Sunday so I hope Cameron can take over the lead this week. My husband, Peter, has offered to come down and help from 08.30-09.00 with any of the new skills that the U9s have to learn, if we need him. After 09.00 he has to train the U12s. Let me know if you want him to come, Cameron, and Peter can help with scrum, ruck or mauls etc. Also, I hope that Peter Fraser may be available on Sunday to help out with some new drills.
Kane Jury, our DeA Seniors Head Coach, has offered to have a chat with all U9-U12 coaches from 11.30-12.15 on Sunday, so I hope as many coaches as possible will attend this and make the most of this opportunity. If interested, please meet at the top of the steps leading down to pitch 3 at 11.15.
Special thank you to Grant and Angus Colman for sorting out all our U9 balls on their first day of joining DeA. Maurice Shiu, Mike Park, SJ Lim and Jason Cho agreed to look after the U9 balls and return them back to the container after every training session, so thanks to them too. It will be a big help for coaches as they will be very tired after training. Tim Ford is our first aid U9 coordinator but we need more volunteers as Tim is not present every training.
On 27th September the Discovery Bay Pirates will be training and playing against us at KP. Also, on 4th October Valley Fort will come to train and play against us at KP. We have got two weeks to train well before these two strong teams come to train with us. Please be on time so that the kids have more time to train.
Regards and see you all at 08.30 on Sunday,
Mel
