Hong Kong Football Club festival on Sunday 14th March 2010 - programme/schedule
Dear DeA Minis Members
This is a final reminder that there will be no training at King's Park on Sunday, as DeA Minis will be playing at the HKFC festival, Happy Valley. Please enter the playing area via the tunnel entrance next to Happy Valley race course. Details of the playing areas for individual age groups, and the playing schedules, are outlined in the HKFC programme, which can be found on the DeA Minis website at: www.deatigersrfc.com
Basically, the playing times for matches for each age group are:
U6 = 09.30-11.30 (please note that U6s MUST NOT wear studded boots on their pitch, so please ensure your U6 child wears training shoes)
U7 = 08.30-11.20
U8 = 08.30-11.20
U9 = 10.00-13.25
U10 = 10.00-13.50
U9/10 girls = 13.00-14.00
U11 = 13.30-16.15
U12 = 11.24-16.30
U11/12 girls = 14.30-16.45
It is important that all players are at HKFC at least 30 minutes before their first scheduled game, as coaches will need time to organise teams and to get the kids warmed up.
This is the last major tournament before the HK7s, so we hope we can have a great turn-out from the DeA Minis. We also hope that parents can offer plenty of support for our teams at all age groups, but remember that the spirit of fun and fair play should prevail, so keep your emotions in check and always smile at the referee when decisions do not go DeA's way!!
It is also the final decider for the Richard Hawkes' trophy, which is for the U11/12 girls and the U12 boys. Teams will be playing for the end of season trophies, so it would be great if DeA members could stay behind and give our U12 boys and girls lots of support on the HKFC main pitch as they strive to win these trophies. Why not make a day of of it, even if your kids finish playing in the morning? It would be great for the younger kids to watch the older Minis in action and to cheer them on!!
Go Tigers!!
