Auburn Tournament June 2007

Things to make note of for the 2007-2008 season:

At this time we will be playing once a month throughout the year – and we are still looking for more players! Volunteers are always welcome! While parent input and help is welcomed, it is vital that the players run, control, and manage this team. Parents are welcome and encouraged to watch, stay and cheer on the team. Parent involvement should be in a support capacity, only when asked for by the player. We are urging non-parents to be volunteers to give the players full independence.
