Remember that our game against Walt Clark at Thompson Valley was postponed last week. So we have our first two matches this week!
Matches begin at 3:30, so you need to arrive by 3:15. If you're there a bit early, there's a good chance you can warm up on a court.
Here is the schedule:
Thursday against Walt Clark at TVHS at 3:30 (arrive between 3:00 and 3:15).
Friday against Ewrin at Loveland H.S. at 3:30 (again arrive by 3:15).
Remember to bring water!
Don't forget to wear your Reed Tennis Shirt. If you haven't payed for the shirt - it is a team jersey, and you may be asked to lend it to another player.
Our player line up for Thursday will be the same as last week - unless a player has been suspended from game play due to absences, etc. I believe I will have a modified line up for Friday - probably to be sure all girls have experience playing doubles as well.
Note: The match on April 26 is at Bertoud H.S. But it is Reed vs. Ball - but we are a Reed/Ball squad, so we won't go to Bertoud. Thus, no games next week.
Remember to know your game schedule. Here's a link if you need it:
Tennis Spring Schedule
We have no schedule for Saturday, May 14th yet.
Note: Recall that there are attendance requirements to play at games. Not meeting practice requirements makes you ineligible to play games unless exceptions are made in special cases. Generally, exceptions won't be made unless there are sound reasons for the absence and your playing is beneficial first to the team, rather than to the individual. Poor attendance is also grounds to suspend a player or remove him/her from the team. We want everyone to play, but this is a team sport that requires your commitment. If you cannot make that commitment, please don't expect to remain on the team.
Thank you,
Mr. Hagstrom
