News from the President - Wes Bledsoe


02-27-2005

Hi all, it is time once again for another great season of soccer. The first weekend was a tremendous success. There are a few changes you may have already noticed for this spring 2005 season. The highlights are listed below.
Concession stand - We have outsourced the running of the concession stand this season. We have trouble getting enough volunteers to run it that the board decided to have someone else man our concession stand.
Field layout - Our field layout has changed a bit from the fall season. Our U9/10, U5 and U6 teams are in the same location. But now our U7 and U8 teams are on field 2, and our U11 and up teams are on field 5. Due to excessive wear during the tournament, the U11 and up are currently playing on field 8 (the east football field). The U7 & U8 fields will move some time this week, as the city has closed that field also.
Field conditions - Speaking of field conditions, we will be monitoring field conditions each week of the season. If necessary, field locations could vary some weeks. We are doing this to try to minimize the wear on any one field. Currently, fields 5 and 6 are closed. Once they have been "rested" for a few weeks, then we will move games from other fields to these fields. Next spring this should not be as big of a problem, as the city is planning to over-seed during our fall season.
Let me know - If you have any questions or concerns, please email me. I plan to use this page as a forum to answer questions.
Thank you,
Wes Bledsoe
President TCYSA
