Season Update

We wanted to let you know that all 300 players have been placed on teams and we are in the process of finalizing coaches for those teams.  Coaches should be notified in the next few days with rosters, if they haven't already, and parents should be hearing from coaches early next week!  We are optimistic that practices can start soon, but of coarse, that depends on the weather!  For now, it look like Mother Nature is going to continue to challenge the beginning of our 2014 softball season, but we remain hopeful the fields will dry out soon and facilities like the ASC will open for play! 

 

Just a few reminders:

1)  Spirit Wear is available for sale through April 23rd.  Orders can be placed through Sport and Cycle at: http://www.sportandcycleteamsales.com/PlayerPacks.aspx

Final Player Assessment Sunday March 16th

Humboldt Fastpitch requests that all players who participate in the organization's recreation program attend one of the two player assessments.  The first assessment happened last weekend at Fortuna High School and went very smoothly with the help of the many volunteers and the Arcata High Marketing Class students.  Thank you to all that helped and to the many parents that registered their players online. 

The second assessment will happen this Sunday, March 16th at McKinleyville High School and will occur Rain or Shine.   Unlike last weekend, the weather for the Sunday's assessment is looking fantastic!  Just in case, please have players equipped with both cleats and tennis shoes!  Additionally, if you are still have a softball  uniform, we desperately need you to return them!  Please bring any jerseys (old or new) you have to the registration table when you arrive on Sunday.  Your assistance would be much appreciated!

The Registration table will open at 10 a.m.  However, we encourage all Parents to register their Players ONLINE BEFORE THE ASSESSMENT using the link on this blog site!  It's simple, quick and will greatly speed up the process on Sunday.  If you prefer to pay by cash or by check, register online NOW and you can easily pay at this Sunday's assessment.  If you would like to petition your player up and age bracket, please have her attend the assessment you would like her to participate.  

 

The schedule is as follows:

10 a.m. = 10 and under (8 and under players only need to attend if they are choosing to petition up!)

11 a.m. = 12 and under

12 p.m. = 14 and over

 

If you are unclear as to which session your player should attend, consider the chart below.  For clarification of any information, please send an email to humboldtfastpitch@gmail.com. 

 

 We look forward to seeing you at assessments.  :)
