Gone to the dogs !!

A night at the dogs.......................................................

We would like to try and organise an evening out with the parents, So a night at the dogs seems to fit the bill, Depending on interest we would look to have a meal and some drinks followed by a few cheeky bets.

Please see one of the coaches to register your interest.

FA respect campaign

A useful piece of information and well worth a look as we get ready for the new season !!!
We know Forest Glades parents conduct themselves in a respectable manor but would like to reiterate the issues highlighted in the FA respect guide. We as coaches and parents are responsible for our club and the behaviour of both home and away supporters, anyone not adhering to the guidelines may be asked to leave the grounds until the game has finished.

NO TRAINING SATURDAY 13th SEPTEMBER

 

All, please note there is no training at Forest Glade next weekend as the grounds are closed due to the annual Barleylands Essex Country Show. This should not impact most players as Leopards, Tigers and Lions will all be playing in the Trinity Tournament.

Good Luck to Coach Lee

 

 

Wishing Coach Lee good luck for tomorrow as his participates in the Great North Run. No pressure now Lee, but everyone in the club wants to know after the event if you beat the two hour target. Don't forget to wave and pretend you are not in any pain when you run past the TV camera's.

Buckhurst Hill Game Update

For all those playing in tomorrow's friendly games at Buckhurst please can you wear the "Yellow Kwik Fit" away kit but as usual take the blue shirt with you just in case.

Also please be aware there will be no training for Leopards, Tigers and Lions tomorrow (Sat 6th) due to the Buckhurst games.

Chelsea Training Awards - Well Done Darcy & Joe

Well done to all the FG U7's who took part in the 2 day Chelsea training course at Barleylands earlier this week. I hope you all enjoyed the football, the coaching and learnt some new skills to show us. Given that this course was open to any football player (even outside of Forest Glade) it was fantastic to see the majority of the attendees were from our very own Under 7's team.

 

A special well done to Darcy from the Leopards and Joe from the Lions who both picked up special awards at the end of the course.

 

Darcy & Joe with their presentation medals and certificates. Very well done.

Kits

Kit again

Can you all please check what kit you have, each player ( Lions/Tigers/Leopards ) should have one home kit "Blue" consisting of 1 x shorts 1 x shirt 1 x socks and one away kit "Yellow" consisting of 1 x shorts 1 x shirt 1 x socks.

If you have any extra shorts or socks due to playing in different teams when squads were being selected please can you return them to one of the coaches.

Social media...........

Everybody seems to use some form of social media now days and it seems a waste to be left behind.

As a trial we are going to try and run a twitter account and Facebook group to inform parents of any Forest Glade Under 7 related issues, This will give another option to people who have been unable to check the blog, The blog will run in conjunction with the trial as pictures match reports and detailed information will still be posted on here.

We are trying to cover all bases with keeping you informed.
