Weather alert (Saturday @
6:30 AM6:40 AM7:50 AM): All three games have been canceled due to waterlogged fields. We considered reserving the Metro North TOPS field for intra-Academy scrimmages, but nixed this idea due to the weather forecast: chilly, windy and wet. We encourage the girls to enjoy the day off. Happy Easter weekend!
Game day notes
- Two separate venues: Some girls play at Scott Hudgens Park in Duluth, some play at Quest Park. Please be sure to check the team assignment table for your daughter’s game location. Coach Sydney will be with the girls at Quest Park, and coach Ward will be with the girls in Duluth.
- “DH” girls needed: We have room for 1-3 girls from the 9 AM Quest game to play twice. If your daughter is scheduled at 9 AM at Quest, and she is also available / interested in playing again in the 10:30 AM Quest game, please e-mail Ward.
- Reminders: Shirts tucked in, shin guards, no jewelry!
- Hydration: We’re getting into warm weather season. Properly hydrated players are more likely to perform well throughout the game. Link: hydration tips
- Weekly quiz: We post a quiz each week below the team assignments. Scroll past the roster table for quiz details.
- Captains: Girls whose names are in bold print with a (C) indicator are captains. They are responsible for gathering their teammates and helping the coach start pre-game warm-up. Link: warm-up ideas

Weekly quiz – dribbling moves
Girls can win a treat after our Wednesday or Thursday practice if they can demonstrate at least two different V-pull dribbling moves to find open space away from pressure, and also answer this question: “What are the three parts of a front V-pull move?“
