FUNRAISING DATES

Dear SHS Tennis Families,

Andy has arranged for SHS tennis teams to participate in a fundraiser to benefit both the boys and girls tennis teams. The SHS Athletic Department offers opportunities to its sports teams to clean the SHS stadium after sporting events. The dates offered to the SHS tennis teams are:
8/30 @ 10:00 a.m. Thank you to the boys Varsity for a job well done!
9/26 - following the scheduled SHS Homecoming football game
10/18 - 2:00 p.m.
10/25 - 2:00 p.m.
The teams will earn $100 for each cleaning. Mr. White, the SHS Athletic Director, has told us it should take 15 or so people, 30 minutes to clean out the Football Stadium.
Please look at the dates and if one or more work for you please e-mail me at kmba2@hotmail.com so that I am sure we have enough volunteers for each date. If we have more people than we need then it will take half as long! The 9/26 game will probably require the most help. It would be great if every player who attends the game stays to collect a bag before they leave the stadium.
I will be at the north end of the stands with a garbage bag for all volunteers. Having done this before I might suggest that if you don’t like dirty hands that you bring a pair of gardening gloves. Friends and family are more than welcome to join us!

Go Hornets!!

Pioneer on Wednesday!

Since we had a cancellation with Lincoln ,that opened up our Wednesday. So we will be playing Pioneer at Pioneer tomorrow. We will all get to play , which is a wonderful rarity. We have a bus and we will be leaving right after school on Wednesday.

Thursday, we will have photos taken by Tom Mac at the courts at the beginning of practice. PLease wear your Hornet Tennis tee shirt and navy shorts for the photo. If you have not gotten yours yet, wear a white shirt with not a lot of writing on it.

Friday, September 5, 2008

HERE IT IS!! Please note that most matches start in between 4-4:30, depending on traffic and distance for us or our opponents. I like all players to stay through all the matches. We are a team and I expect the players to support their teammates.

ALSO- I stressed this earlier, not all players will play at every match. We have a very large team and I do my best to work with other coaches to get as many matches as possible.


9/10 -@ Lincoln - we go with Varsity
9/15- @ Brighton
9/17-Skyline-- Varsity is playing them, NOT US. This may change.
9/18- @Detroit Country Day
9/20-Huron tournament ( at Saline High School) 8:00 am
9/22- Adrian- CANCELED b/c they have no JV team this year
9/24 -Huron home ( to be confirmed)
9/25- Detroit Catholic Central home
10/2- Greenhills home

* We will have to find time to play Dexter ( which was rained out) and I'd also like to play pioneer, but it is not on the schedule currently.

update

I will post the schedule , as i know it, later this morning.

For now, I want to say how proud I am of all the guys yesterday. They played their hearts out, and the were good sportsmen all around.

As for those of you who didn't know about the match, don't worry about it. I couldn't post anything on the blog because I didn't have comcast for a few days. My nieghbor had cable installed and they unplugged mine by accident. Obviously, it was was fixed and I have access once again! I did tell the guys about the matches . I sat them down ( literally I made them sit down on the wall on the lower courts and pay attention.) I went over the schedule for the entire week with them and they all nodded in agreement. Now, I didn't get the chance to remind them on Tuesday and I realize they are teenagers who need to be told several times, but they are also young men and should be listening when I make important announcements.

Thank you. Now, I have told the guys this announcement several times, too, the guys need to bring in 5 dollars for their shirt today. Andy said he was going to pick them up today. I don' t know why they were delayed. No money, no shirt.

If your student has not paid -to-participate, they will not be allowed to practice today or again until it is paid.

WELCOME BACK TO SCHOOL!

Hi parents and guys... Guys , welcome back to school!

On Tuesday, practice is from 3-5pm. Wednesday we are playing Dexter, should they have enough players for a JV team. I am still waiting to hear back to hear if it will be home or if we will be going with the varsity. I will let you know as soon as I know. :) UPDATE- We will be going to Dexter, but not everyone because Dexter has a very small team. Andy is waiting to hear back from the Dexter coach.

My phone is dead, and currently the only way to reach me is at katfoleyphoto@yahoo.com . I will be be checking my email later this evening around 8:30-9pm.

Hope you had a great weekend , hope you were able to play some tennis, too!
