In the future

I am glad everything worked out for the most part.

In the future:

Vacations, Camps, Trips, Birthday parties, Finals, are not excuses to miss games and/or practices and should be planned after season or before.

Finals are important, but an hour and a half of workout will not get in the way of getting good grades. You need to improve your time management. Stay on top of your school work through out the semester so you don't have to cram.

I put a lot of time and effort into YOUR season, and I feel like it's been wasted with extra curricular activities. I know that the schedule was changed but the reschedule was a big headache because people made plans before season started.

Your time is my time during the season and if that doesn't work for you than you should re-evaluate if water polo @ Northwood is for you.

Updated Schedule

We will practice Monday and Tuesday this week at normal practice time.

Wednesday we play at home vs Foothill February 3, 2010.

Thursdays game vs El Dorado has been moved to Friday February 12, 2010. So NO game Thursday.

The game vs Huntington Beach has been moved to February 8, 2010.
So we will not be playing Tesoro on that day.

The Trabuco Hills game will still be on February 10, 2010.

*San Clemente and Tesoro games will not be played.
