Parents meeting information

Parents meeting (information).
This is a meeting where parents can ask questions and share ideas.
It is all about improving the players experience.

We will also announce some changes that we have thought up.  You can give us your feed-back to some of the changes we are thinking of doing.

Thank you,
Diane Short


Feed back and changes.

1.The regional teams that are practicing 2 times/week will play in house.  This will have all teams touching the ball 3 times/week. 
2.Diane will spend more time with first and second year club coaches especially in the first two months.  3.Different skill sessions offered for all club players (example:  middle blocking position, defense, serving etc.)

4. Do a better job communicating to players the difference between open teams and regional teams. 
5. Feedback for the conditioning was very good.  We will keep this.
6. Need to get more parents involved in the booster club. 
7. Looking for corporate sponsorship.  This would lower tuition costs.
8. No Parents (of players) will be head coaches.  They may still be assistant coaches.
9.  Start a grass roots program  10 U, 12 U. 
10. Give players an opportunity to play 12 months a year if they desire.  (summer leagues, tournament, clinics and camps)
11. More coaches training and monthly coaches meetings.
12.  Parents may request for players to play on regional teams instead of open teams.  All communication should be made to Diane Short at try-outs.  I will usually talk to bubble kids and give them a choice.

Thank you for the parents who came to the meeting.  Not a great turn out.  However, I thought we accomplished quite a bit.

Sincerely,
Diane Short
Blast player and coach club Director
 


End of the year party May 23rd

Meeting on April 22 (today) CCRI 7:15 is a meeting to help organize the event.
