    Everyone's desire is to have our children develop their skills, learn the sport they are participating in, and certainly to enjoy the experience of the team and  individual achievement.

       Additionally, each child brings a unique set of skills and ability to the team. there are also expectations from the coaches concerning practice time, listening to instruction and following direction. Skill levels also vary and will influence how a coach will utilize a player.   Each and every player is provided opportunities to participate and enhance their skills.  Participation in a sport requires a level of commitment to be in attendance and to work on developing their skills, whether on the practice field, at home or during games.
