March 25, 2013Captains are meeting tonight to draft the 2012 hurling teams; the jersey and team reveal will be at Nellie Glenns (on Gravois) at 7 p.m. Tuesday.
The schedule has been loaded to the calendar page and can be found here.
Confused about judging duties? It’s simple:
- If your team is listed first for game one, you help set up (get there a 1/2 hour early) and help judge game 2.
- The team listed second for game one also helps judge game 2.
- Both teams playing game 2 get there early to judge game 1.
- Both teams playing game 3 judge game 4.
- Both teams in game 4 judge game 3, but the second listed team also cleans up the pitch.
Saturday, March 2, practice changes
March 1, 2013Because of weather and pitch conditions, the practice times for Saturday, March 2, have changed.
New players will start at noon; returning players will start practice at 1 p.m. We will still be at St. Vincent’s Park off the Rock Road, but we ask that players stay off the main field.
Camogie practice will also start at noon at St. Vincent’s Park.
If you have questions, you can email the Yahoo listserve or a board member.
Don’t forget to bring cash or a check for dues ($75 if paid by March 13).
