SOCCER WINDUP NEWS
This year's Mini and Junior soccer windup will look a little different this year! The windup, which takes place on Monday, June 25th at the Glenlee site on Worthington Avenue is changing. Over the past few years, organizing, shopping and cooking the food, along with collecting the money for extra meals has become such a big challenge that we decided to do away with the food and concentrate on what the kids love best - playing games and having FUN! The money that would normally go towards the food has now been spent on prizes which will make the kids even happier still. So have fun on the 25th and don't forget to eat at home first!
KNIGHT OF CELEBRATION 2018 - UPDATE
This year's annual Knight of Celebration was another success with over 180 people enjoying the meal, and many more partaking in all the other activities going on. The evening ended with a fantastic fireworks display.
Thanks to the organizing committee, the volunteers and everyone who came out to support NGCC. Make sure you check out all the great pictures on our Facebook page!
USED SPORT EQUIPMENT REQUEST
NGCC will be collecting used sports equipment on behalf of 4 First Nations Communities. A Social Worker from our community makes regular trips up north and the people he meets with are very appreciative of any equipment they can aquire to keep the people of their communities active and engaged. At this time they are particularily interested in baseball/softball and soccer equipment, but are willing to take anything.
The 4 communities are: Bunibonibee Cree Nation (Oxford House), Manto Sipi Cree Nation, Gods Lake First Nation and Chemawawin Cree Nation.
We will have a collection bin set up just inside the main doors at the Norberry site on Molgat Ave.
PARENT INFORMATION
Every year, our Volunteer coaches run into parents that are not satisfied with how their child is being coached. Here is a document that all parents (and coaches too) should read to remind themselves to keep things in perspective.
Happy reading!
A new article titled "Are Great Coaches Becoming an Endangered Species?" is also very good and worth a read...find it here.
And yet another good article titled "your kid and my kid are not making the pros".
