Monday Morning Centreback - new coaching blog from Gregor

Mon, 14 Jun 2010 15:59:38 -0700

I've decided to switch to a more flexible, better designed platform for the coaching blog I started this past season and also make it a bit more reader-friendly with some lighter content in addition to coaching pointers. It's called Monday Morning Centreback and it even has its own URL: www.mondaymorningcentreback.com.
Expect lots of World Cup content while it's on.

Point Grey Soccer Early Bird Registration Reminder

Thu, 27 May 2010 16:59:53 -0700

Dear Club Members,

As Club President I am writing to remind everyone that the Early Bird registration deadline of May 31st is upon us. Early Bird registration saves you money reducing fees by $30 per registrant. It also helps the Club get organized for the coming season as Early Bird registration gives us a sense of player numbers for each age group and thus how many teams we will form for the fall.

Thank you to all of you who taken the time to contact me to ask questions and discuss our Club registration increases and changes. I have had many inquiries whether by email or at our recent AGM. The increases were driven by the substantially reduced Gaming Commission grant received in 2009 and the prospect, at the time of setting fees this year, that the grants would be eliminated entirely for 2010. Our fee increases resulted in a differential between our Club fees and our neighbouring clubs which has been frustrating for members. As I have explained to many of you, the difference is driven by one of our neighbours not having UBC turf costs and the Gaming Commission grants we received over the last four years being significantly lower than our other neighbour.
