August 8 Prax & Pictures!

Practices

Sunday, August 8
about 3 hours long
Where: Thompson Park <3

Notes on practices: Two of our original players cannot make it but we were thankful that we have "subs" ~Lauren, Jessi P, & Alex~ They did a great job on picking up plays and keeping up with us. We couldn't have done it without them. Thanks girls for making an effective practices for us!! We all hope to see MORE of you in future practices. :) We did couple drills then we did a scrimmage. We all felt that it was a great practices. Most of us were sore the next few days, haha. :)

Thanks Coach Jeff & Coach Scotty for EVERYTHING, for contributing your time of travel and teaching us girls, we know that it's tough teaching girls because girls can easily get sidetrack and gossip (haha). Thanks for your patience and for believing in us. Thank you for making this to happen!!!


Here are FEW pictures for you to look at...

Thank You, Thompson park!!! :)

We want to THANK Thompson Park in Monroe Township for allowing us to have GREAT practices at their field since October!!!!

We are from ALL over NJ so we try to find a middle point where we all can meet up. Thompson Park in Monroe Township seems like the best place so far for all of us to meet. It's about an hour drive for most of us. The park has 675 acres of land! It has different types of fields which is compatible for us. As much as we LOVE Thompson park, we decided that will try to change locations from time to time. Our next one probably will be in South Jersey.



We want to show our appreciation to Thompson Park and by doing that, we will share on what Thompson park has to offer. Go and visit!!!
