CCS Basketball Team Practices begin on Monday

Players have been practicing at "player practices" for the past three weeks with Mr. Klaponski.  They have increased their knowledge and skills and demonstrated their commitment to their team.  Coaches are excited to work with their players starting the week of Monday (Nov. 28th).  It is important that players show their commitment by attending practices and practicing on their own at recess and after school.  Team plays and knowledge is provided at practices so it is vital that all players attend.  Be sure to inform your coach, well ahead of time, of your reason for not attending a practice.

Jersey Return Time

Please help me by returning all soccer and v-ball jerseys to Mr. Klaponski.  It is best to give the jerseys directly to him so they can be tracked.

Basketball "CCS Player" practices begin Monday Nov. 7th

These practices are new to our basketball program.  This year there will be open practices for students in grade 5,6,7 interested in playing basketball on a CCS team.  The purpose of the practices is to give players skill and endurance training so they are well prepared for the season.  All CCS United Basketball players should make it out to at least 1 CCS PLAYER practice and 2 Shooting Practices each week.  You may attend as many as you like.  Attendance will be taken!  See the practice schedule on the PE/Athletics Blog.

Team practices will begin Nov. 28th.

Term One Sports Update

Well the soccer and volleyball seasons are officially over now.  Congratulations to all the players and teams.  You have all grown in skill, knowledge and teamwork.  Our Athletic program determines its success on the sports field on these indicators (Playing Hard, Smart and Together).  I am proud of your development this season.  Continue to keep active and stay healthy throughout the year.  The competition was good this year and all the teams have left the season with motivation to keep practicing their skills in the off season.

Grade 7 Volleyball Girls Win OLGC Tournament Oct 14th

Congratulations Girls!  After playing 3 single games against 3 teams CCS was undefeated.  The next match was the gold medal.  Our girls managed to edge their opponents to win the tournament.  All girls received medals and took a picture with the "big trophy."  Those early morning practices seem to be paying off... eh girls? If you all play hard, smart and together in the last two games this week you'll be ready for the playoffs.  Go United!

If you plan on watching your child play why not sit in the best seat in the gym by becoming a coach?  Teacher sponsors/coaches will be assigned to you and training is available by request.
 
But if your child is not in grades 5, 6 or 7 then you still might want to coach a team.
