We’ve reserved a field for optional Junior Academy Girls practice sessions each Friday morning in July.
These are “come if you can” events. If your daughter has already signed up to sew masks for health care providers, don’t change your plans!
Player availability poll:
We’ll post an availability poll each weekend and then schedule players accordingly. Depending on player availability, we could have one, two or three sessions each Friday. (We want to keep the player:coach ratio lower than usual during the early days.)
Who plays when?
Friday, July 31:
- 9:00 – 10:15 AM: Antoci, Cadic, Edens (2), Jarrett, Kilfeather, Maselle, Michalke, Patel (2), Roller (2), Wiliams (2)
- 10:15 – 11:30 AM: Augustin, Barbalho, Calvo, Edens (2), Mannino, Masisak, Patel (2), Roller (2), Wilkens, Williams (2)
About the practice sessions:
Sessions will take place at Metro North Park on the TOPS field. (The bathrooms may not be open, so plan accordingly.) Girls can wear any soccer gear — it doesn’t have to be official NTH practice gear.
We’ll ask players to practice appropriate social distancing during the initial skill-building parts of the sessions. We’ll finish each session with small-sided scrimmages. Physical contact is likely during scrimmages. If you’re not comfortable with your daughter participating in scrimmages, she is still welcome to attend and participate in the skill-building activities.
