METHOD FOR TRYOUTS ALTERED

Posted by Gord HART at Jan 5, 2004 4:00PM PST ( 0 Comments )

Dear Invaders Players, Members, Parents, and Guardians,
                         Re: Invaders Tryouts and Registration 
     This year, the Invaders are running our Registration and Tryouts differently than in previous years. Unlike the past several years, we are separating the registration process from the tryout process. We are also eliminating the big tryout in the high school gym for all divisions except Squirts (born in 1992 or 1993). This year, for all divisions except Squirt, tryouts will commence in elementary school gyms, per team or per division.. We have re-integrated our registration process with Tsawwassen Minor Softball and Ladner Minor Softball. To be eligible to play with an Invaders team, all players who tryout must register in January with one of Tsawwassen Minor Softball or Ladner Minor Softball. 

    
Division    Player Birth Year  Coach Name             Phone Number
 
Squirt      1993                      Doug Steer                 943-7399  
               1992                      Denis Gendron           948-1322 

PeeWee  1991                      Doug Harris               940-8466
PeeWee 1990                       Mark Henderson        940-9412

Bantam  1989, 1988           Bruce Van Nieuwkerk 948-1533
                                           Natalie Rutherford      943-5255

     If interested players are unable to attend the initial try-out, please contact the appropriate coach listed above.

                                                    REGISTRATION

     Register with your home association, either by mail or in person. You will receive a partially completed registration form in the mail with your local association newsletter that you may then mail to the appropriate address for your association person. 

     You may also get a registration form on-line at www.lmfa.net In Tsawwassen, you may also take your forms to Dee’s Post Office (beside Safeway) starting January 22, 2003. Blank forms will be available at all in-person registrations.

     The Invaders registration fee of $175.00 is required at sign up, as well as a post-dated uniform deposit cheque for $50.00. New players must also pay a $10 Softball BC membership fee. A parent or guardian must sign the registration for all players under 19 years of age.

    Tell Your Friends We have sent this letter to all players registered with the Invaders in 2003 and advertised in the local newspapers. Likewise, TMSA and LMFA have sent their newsletters to all their members with similar information. However, we are a bit late this year, so please let your friends know about the tryouts, just in case we missed them or the letters have not reached them.

     Thanks! Looking forward to another great season in 2004!

Midget "Pre"-Tryouts Dec 4-6 in Ladner

Posted by Rob Reid at Dec 1, 2002 4:00PM PST ( 0 Comments )
Pieter Vanden Bos has announced that he is holding Midget tryouts at Cromie Park in Ladner Wed., Thurs, Fri. Dec 4 to Dec 6. Each session runs from 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm. One of the objectives is to determine whether we have sufficient player interest to form two Midget teams this year. All girls born between 1984 and 1986 are eligible to attend. This is a pre-tryout only, to assess overall interest. Formal Invader registrations are planned for January 12 at SDSS in Tsawwassen.
Tryouts and registration for 2003 will be held Sunday, January 12, 2003, in Tsawwassen at South Delta Secondary north gym. We invite all South Delta fastpitch players born between 1984 and 1992, who are interested in playing girls Rep "B" fastpitch, to attend. 9:00 - 11:00 Squirts (born 1991 & 1992) 11:00 - 12:30 Peewees (born 1989 & 1990) 1:00 - 2:30 Bantams (born 1987 & 1988) 1:00 - 2:30 Midgets (born 1984, 1985, 1986) We recognize that many of our players will have conflicts with soccer that day. If you or your daughter are unable to attend, please arrange to register separately by contacting Rob Reid at 604-946-2469. For registration, please bring: - two cheques: one for registration, and one for your uniform deposit. - the registration form that you received in the mail; OR - if you did not get a registration form in the mail: - your Softball BC number, if you have one; - your Care card number. If you are not currently a member of Softball BC, you will be required to pay a one-time Softball membership fee of $10.
I'm happy to announce that Denis Gendron has been appointed as head coach of the 2003 South Delta Invaders first year squirt team ('92). Denis has coached mites in Tsawwassen for the past couple of years, and took the Tsawwassen Mighty-Mite team to the Mite-provincial tournament in Burnaby last year. Denis is enthusiastic and resourceful, and has a healthy focus on keeping the game fun. I'm sure the 2003 first year squirt team is going to have a great year with Denis. We are glad to have Denis on board, and we're sure he will have a fun and challenging year! Rob Reid President, SD Invaders
