Junior & Youth Update - February 2009

We are now 6 weeks into the new junior & youth section with Sundays continuing to develop and the teams improving from week to week. Thank you for every ones support and faith in PMHC as a club to deliver. None more so than the U10s who under the guidance of Clive and management support of Sarah the team have been transformed, well done to everyone concerned especially the players. Without doubt the star is Ellie in goal who is fast becoming a cracking shot stopper. Else where the U14 and U12 girls continue to perform well through the support of Lisa and Holly with lots of new members joining the girls teams which is great to see. The Boys U12 Saints continue to impress scoring lots of goals and most importantly playing some nice skilful hockey. The U12 Eagles are also improving and playing some free flowing hockey. Finally the U14 boys remain in contention in the U14 Plymouth League and Devon League. Finally a mention for the dinky group who are coached by John and Holly. It is great to see everyone enjoying playing and learning new skills. Well done to all the players, managers and especially the coaches for their hard work and commitment.

Important Notice - Registering in – Please note that all players must be signed in by a parent at the gate/hockey HQ Hut each week.

First meeting – the first meeting took place early in the month with lots of positive discussion. Ongoing changes will be made to ensure the junior & youth section develops. Any ideas please let your manager or coach know. If you are interested in getting involved please let me know.

Results – for all the results from the Plymouth League please visit our web site and view Plymouth Marjon Teams. You will be able to select the relevant team to see their results and league position.

Fixtures – Please see the most up to date fixtures for the junior teams overleaf. Reminder that the U11 and U13 Boys play in Exeter next week with the girls U11 & U13s the following week on the 8^th. Due to the numbers available and under the rules we can only take a maximum of 10 players so not everyone will be able to go.

HELP!!!! Can you help the club by providing the following

Car Boot Sale – To help raise money for the club we will be attending a car boot sale in March. If you have items you would be willing to donate to our Car Boot collection please can you bring it along so we can sort it out and store it in our new storage unit.

Items required – The club is in need of the following items for our new storage come club HQ. If you have any of these items can you let me know.

Fridge freezer, mugs, jugs, plastic cups, micro wave, kettles, toaster, cutlery, If you can think of anything else which might be of use please let me know.

Refreshments – We will be able to run a mini refreshment service from next week. This will help provide a much needed service on a Sunday and also on Friday evenings. We will however need some parents to run this facility from our new Hockey HQ Hut/Store. So please volunteer especially if you can help coordinate a rota. This will also help to raise some funds to purchase new equipment for the junior & youth section especially keepers.

Back Packing 20th December

Sun, 29 Nov 2009 22:16:54 GMT

BAG PACKING AT SAINSBURYS, MARSH MILLS SUNDAY 20^TH DECEMBER 2009

Dear Parents,

As you should know the junior club is holding a fund raising bag pack at Sainsburys on Sunday 20^th December. We have been very fortunate in getting this date so close to the Christmas holidays and hope to make a substantial amount for the club. To enable us to take full advantage of this we need as many of the youth and junior club members as possible to attend. The bag pack will be from 10.00 to 4.00pm, so ideally we will split the day into two shifts, 10.00 to 1.00 and 1.00 to 4.00. It is very important that we know who is attending which shift, so we ask that you e-mail Sarah Sinclair at sjsinclair57d@aol.com to either confirm attendance or if your unable to attend this event. We will also need some parents to help supervise and all we need the kids to wear club hoodies / training / playing tops. They may also want a drink and snack.

As it’s so close to Christmas it’s going to be very busy so it’s very important that we get enough volunteers to make this a viable event. If we don’t we may have to decline the opportunity and lose out on a substantial boost to the YOUR club funds,
