Dear Players and Families,
ο»Ώ
Well, we are in the dog days of summer now, I hope you are finding ways to play and stay cool. Great time to enjoy the pool and the area lakes.
With everyone busy enjoying the summer itβs hard to believe that the fall season begins in just a few short weeks. Registration is now open for most fall sports, so I encourage you to sign up early to secure your space.
Here at T&C we are busy preparing the fields and facilities for the fall return of our players. Growing grass in this heat is challenging to say the least. Unfortunately, we were further hampered as over the July 4th holiday vandals burned up one of our main irrigation controllers, cutting off water from approximately 50% of the campus. Repairs are planned but getting the correct parts has been an issue so we are trying to make do as best we can. Hoping for the odd rain shower.
We are planning several events for this fall starting with our Labor Day Family Fun Day, so I encourage you all to read your newsletters and follow us on social media for upcoming T&C community events and announcements.
I thank you for your continued support of T&C and our mission to promote youth sports and the love of the game.
Have a great summer and stay safe!
Best regards,
Doug Chappell
General Manager T&C Sports

This season we are going to facilitate an equipment exchange to repurpose gently used sports equipment your family may have grown out of and get it in the hands of players that could really use it.

If you're interested in receiving donated equipment, we will have tables set up with the donated equipment in front of the blue office building on Saturday, August 26th (Tentatively starting at 10:00).

Coach David Husted
"David is so passionate about soccer, he makes sure that kids understand the importance of the skills they are practicing. He has a good eye for each playerβs individuality. He also makes sure to acknowledge new and even minor accomplishments in each of the players and he keeps everyone so involved and happy to play this beautiful game. I started liking soccer just after witnessing his love for soccer and our kids. Of all my kidsβ coaches heβs the best! My son loves him!"
