Registrar report: The rosters for the indoor leagues are not full and there are several children who expressed interest who as of yet are not placed on a team. Evan Kurtz will be forming a U-14 girls team. There are 13 indoor leagues formed at this point. Peggy will send a complete list to be placed on the Web site. This list will include the e-mail addresses of the coaches so parents of interested children may contact the coaches directly.
Dryden Indoor Tournament: Doug has begun to look for a date for the tournament.
Coach and Referee report: A seminar was held on October 6 with a good turnout. Another seminar will be held in Webster, N.Y. on November 17, 2001. Mike Cheatham would like to arrange a coaches meeting to discuss the fall season and share ideas.
Adult Rec League report: The adult league is now finishing the outdoor season. The indoor season will begin the first week of November.
Facilities Coordinator report: Ken is experiencing a lack of gym time for the indoor leagues to practice. Last year there were 9 teams rostered. This year there are 13. Are there any teams who would be interested in practicing before school? There will be no practices longer than an hour. Ken would like feedback from the coaches about their preferred times and days for practice. The DSC may need to look at practice time at the FIELD. DSC has considered helping with the cost of the fee for these practice times at the FIELD. Please get this information to Ken as soon as possible as practices for the indoor season will be starting soon.
Equipment report: Jeri Ann is now restocking the first aid kits for the indoor season. Jeri Ann will receive a list of the coaches names for disbursement of these.
Web site report: The Web site server has been changed. It is now www@drydensoccer.org. The two year fee was $89.00. These funds came from the extra available money generated from the adult league. The FIELD also has a Web site with updates on team divisions and times of play.
Next Dryden Soccer Club meeting will be November 12, 2001.
