Parent's meeting

We held the parent's meeting on Monday night and discussed many items. I'll try to capture them all below:

1. We lost four players for the Winter and Spring seasons: Justin, Damien, Franco and Danny
2. Two more players will not likely join us next fall: Joey and Jake
3. In addition, three players will be considering another sport their primary sport in the spring: Joey, Jake and Dario. This is especially problematic for a Spring tournament.
4. That leaves us with eleven players going into the Spring. I will be working with Wayne Soccer Club and on my own to recruit more players so that we don't have to fold in the spring. We cannot enter Spring session with only eleven players. That would mean we would likely start every game short one or two players.
5. We decided to save some trainer money by not having any more game day trainers in the winter and spring
6. We also want to consolidate trainers to just Leo for the spring.
7. There is money in the budget for a spring OR winter tournament.
8. We decided we should spend this on the Winter tournament. $375 covers almost the entire cost of the tournament, (It's $445) leaving us needing to collect about $10 per child total to cover the remainder plus referee fees.
9. Bruce will contact Renee to get Xavier's card reinstated so that he can help on the game day assistance Bruce needs.
10. Other parents volunteered to assist Bruce in some of the random needs so that he can concentrate on recruiting.
11. Bruce also needs to find out from Renee when to register for the Spring season. We will hold off on this decision until we know if we have a team or not.
