New Summer Format in 2024
We will be doing things a little differently this summer with our training/practice schedule. This schedule will allow us to maximize our time together (players time together), while also allowing freedom for family summer as well. With everything added up we’re actually adding additional training time then previously before.
Another reason for the adjustment to our schedule is the change in tournament schedule – events are more scattered then in previous years.
This new change will consist of 3 separate training camps (Tuesday – Thursday), consisting of a morning session & and evening session. There will be time between sessions for players to have downtime alone or (ideally) spending time with teammates (opportunity to hit the pool, grab lunch and hang out, etc.). Kids now a days are so isolated even when interacting with friends (online gaming, etc), we really hope players are able to engage and hang out more directly through this
format as well.
These will all be the week of tournaments as well to hopefully ensure we’re clicking on all cylinders come tournament time. I understand this will come with some planning (carpools, etc.), If players have work conflicts with morning sessions this is something that can be communicated together.
With the additional time we will have a combination of games and other activities that will keep players engaged. We will have a wide range of coaches including current college players/coaches as well as our current coaching staff.
Total Practice Time:
Old format (last year) = 26 practice hours, spread out over the whole summer
New format (2024) = +40 practice hours, consolidated within 3 week period (more training + more freedom)
Practice Location: Hazel Woods Park @ (3789 W Lower Springboro Rd, Springboro, OH 45066)
Secondary location: Berachah Church @ (1900 Johns Rd, Middletown, OH 45044)
Jr. HS only – Summer Update
We have had some players drop from our (2029 team due to summer conflict’s), because of this and to maximize coaching we will be keeping our 28/29 roster in tack (with the few additions we have for summer only).
I’m happy to answer any questions at all people might have for the upcoming summer. I look forward to seeing many of you play this spring and wish you all the best of luck with your HS & Jr HS teams! Lead through effort and character.
