Here is one more logo to consider. We had the suggestion to make the O in Santos a flaming O. Imagine this with orange flames around the O instead of the white--we will be able to do that when we have it printed. Please comment on your favorite of the 4 logo options so that we can compile the results and decide and proceed with T-shirts.

Additional Summer Sessions
Santos:
I hope that we can add another soccer session to the week this summer. This additional session will be strictly optional. There are many of us taking summer trips, so quite a few players will be missing a lot of practice. If they want to make it up, these sessions will provide a good way.
We have two more sessions at the French American. I'd like to continue that Friday session into July, but make it later in the evening, say 7PM, and alternate locations, one on the East side and one on the West.
I suggest Catlin Gabel lower field for the West side location and maybe we can get some suggestions for a nice playing surface on the East side that is convenient.
I'd also like to add a Sunday evening session, again at 7PM. This we can do at Catlin Gabel. These additional sessions will continue until August.
I would also like to continue SAQ's before our T/Th practices begin. So if possible I'd like the girls to arrive at 5:10, not 5:30. Again, this is optional.
Please let me know, here or by email, if these days/times do not fit with your schedule. If there are too many conflicts we'll try something else.
Thanks,
Sutton

Teammates/dance recital
I think that it is a good idea as teammates to support each other in other aspects of their lives. I have tried to provide opportunities for this such as going to the Les Miserables performance, going to Toni's gymnastics meet last year,etc. (Unfortunately I missed Avi's recent performance in Suessical!)
Please feel free to post on the Blog any significant events, performances, recitals, other sporting events, etc. that your daughter may like some of her teammates to attend.
So here is one opportunity. Abby, Sophia and Morgan are all in dance recital for the Elite Dance Studio with performances June 20th (evening) and June 21st (afternoon and evening). If anyone is interested in attending please email me or post a comment on the blog and I will do my best to get you tickets. Tickets go on sale June 7th to families of the dancers so if you let me know soon there is a better chance I can get a ticket. Recital is held at Lincoln Hall on the PSU campus and tickets are $10.

Beautiful
Santos:
Congratulations to the girls on a great effort this past weekend. They deserved nothing less than the tournament championship and they got it. Tremendous work!
Many parents have commented to me how different these players looked as individuals and as a team, how much better they played. I have seen the same. Russell and Keith noted it as well. Why? No simple explanation of course; and we need to keep in mind that this tournament provided not a single strong opponent.
Still, I feel pretty safe in saying that our girls played with a greater belief in themselves and, more importantly, in each other than before. This lead to our success. A very unselfish Santos team took the field in all four games.
Teammates who believe and trust in each other gain confidence from one another. With this trust, belief, and confidence, it becomes easier for us to play FOR each other. This is what we did in Hillsboro. This is how we must continue in order to have success against the many tougher opponents we’ll face in upcoming tournaments, especially in qualifying.
We were a real and true soccer team this weekend. A real soccer team is fun to play for, fun for everyone to watch, and--in its own way--beautiful. In Hillsboro on Saturday and Sunday, the Santos were beautiful. Bravo!
