2013 Upward Flag Football and Cheerleading Evaluations
Hey Upward Families,
Well, it is what the kids and (if we are being honest) some of the adults have been waiting for, SNOW. It is very beautiful and fun to play in, however, it makes it difficult to do other things.
The purpose of evaluations is to determine the ability each child has so that teams can be evenly built. Though I believe the roads will be drivable, the snow will make it difficult to execute the cone weave. After much thought and discussion the evaluations scheduled for tomorrow will not take place. HOWEVER, there will be a team at the church manned with hot coffee and donuts ready to receive registration forms for those of you that need to still turn those in. We will also have a team ready to assist you in getting your child fitted for their new Upward jersey. The church will be open from 9:30 am until 11:30 am Saturday morning.
And with us having to cancel evaluations tomorrow this will make it impossible to help everyone through evaluations Monday due to insufficient daylight. So, we will not have evaluations on Monday night either. The plan will be to make ourselves available to you to turn in registration forms and get fitted for jerseys from 5:30-7:30 Monday evening.
With evaluations not working out, we will be working extra hard to ensure a level playing field for all of the children participating. We plan to use a combination of last year’s evaluation data for returning players, age, grade, and Upward experience to build our teams this year. We would have loved to have held evaluations at another date, but we need at least two weeks between evaluations and the meet and greet so that kids will have their uniforms and playbooks before the first week of practice. We thank you for your understanding and are truly looking forward to an awesome football and cheerleading season!
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to stop by tomorrow or Monday and see me or one of the other commissioners. You can also email me, jwalton@nansemondriver.com.
Because of Christ,
Jeff Walton
