Hi all,
I just wanted to go over a few details about the Jamboree on Sunday! Both teams are meeting at 8am at Lede Filed in Leduc.
Clothing: Your player must be ready to go at 8 with the exception of their jersey which will be supplied to them at the field on Sunday. If they have white socks from a previous year, please wear them if not, they can have bare legs as well. No blue pants - please dress in silver or black pants. Dress them for the weather - right now the forecast calls for HOT but be prepared for anything.
Food/Water: You cannot pack too much water!!! The average kid this age needs 1.5 litres of water a day - more if they are wearing equipment and running in the heat. The key to hydration is to start early - lots of water tonight, all day tomorrow and on Sunday. As for food, we won't be doing a formal potluck however if you want to bring enough for friends, please feel free. The coaches would like to see healthy choices and enough food to sustain our athletes for the day. While there is supposed to be a concession on site, I would recommend not relying on it as we can't guarantee how long line ups will be and some teams have tighter schedules than others.
If your player is missing the jamboree and you haven't let us know, please do so.
Have a wonderful weekend, enjoy the sunshine and as always, email with questions.
Adrienne
