Hello Parents and Munchkins. Welcome to Fall Munchkins 2011.

This season, Marti and I will be the coaches for Munchkins. We will also have

assistants working with your children to ensure that they have a safe and fun

experience. We will be introducing the game of soccer to the little ones and by

the end of the season, your children will be able to ‘trap’, ‘pass’, ‘shoot’, and even

be able to play a little bit of goalkeeping. This is not travel soccer for 5 year olds.

This program introduces the game to them in a fun way so that when they are

ready to move into our U8 program, they will like it.

We will be playing Mondays and/or Wednesdays from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. at Raben

Field (formerly known as Keith Park). It is located on Keith Rd between Willow

and Commerce, on the north end of West Bloomfield. You can pick one or both weekday sessions to 

attend.

On Saturday mornings from 9:30 a.m to 10:30 a.m., we will have small sided

games at Drake Sports Park. It is located on Drake Rd, between 14 and 15 mile,

in West Bloomfield. Teams will change weekly for the games and everyone will

play at the same time. If you think that your child would like to play on Saturday

mornings on the same team as a friend or relative, you have to let me know. I

won’t be able to glean that information from the short time we spend with your players.

During the week, you do not have to call or email if you are not coming. Just

show up and check in with me each time you come. This will help us keep track

of who is on the field with us. On game days, please let me know if you will not

be attending.

Parents are not only encouraged to be a spectator, but may be asked to

participate. Please note however that the little ones can only listen to ONE

coach. Please allow us to coach on the field and your encouragement will go

along way.

At each session/game, please bring with you a small soccer ball (size 3 or 4), a

water bottle and comfortable shoes to play in. Shin guards are mandatory and

NO jewelry is allowed for any reason.

Below you will find the schedule for Fall.

If you have any questions or problems during the season, feel free to call me at

248 505 9007 or email me at Franci@layslonline.com
