The Court Is Ready
Although the Meet and Greet had to be cancelled, David Leake our undaunted head of building and court maintenance wanted to send out a huge THANK YOU to everyone who helped Saturday morning. Before the rain and thunder started, we were able to clean the court, do a few repairs, spread and level the sand in preparation for the start of the Bocce season. Nine or so willing bodies showed up Saturday morning and made quick work of the chores needed to be finished before play could start on June 2nd. Since even next weekend looks doubtful, our heads of events, Diana Langston, Linda Seavey and Pat Gonya are thinking we might have a small get together a half an hour or so before games start on June 2nd around 4 PM. They’ll keep us all posted.
See you in June
We Have A League!
We now have our 14-team mixed double league filled. An even number of teams means we will be able to play each other at least once this season. If you know of others who would like to join the bocce club, encourage them to join with the understanding that the mixed double league is set, but they can have access to the storage shed, balls and score board to play with friends. Perhaps they may want to organize a morning league or a late week league.
The full team rosters with names, phone numbers and emails have been emailed to you. Just the names and teams are listed on this website since it is public. On your private emailed roster list you find underlined names to indicate the main contact for each team. We have also included a separate list of players who are willing to substitute if one or more of the players on your team are unable to attend that evening’s game. We would like to encourage all of our teams to play with a full complement of players for each match and hope that all teams will make the effort to do so.
We have also attached the full schedule for the season and posted it here on the web site. Of course, we all know that some of these games will be rained out. So, the most up to date schedule will be here on the bocce club web site. We will try to keep that schedule the most up to date. Keep in mind that the 6:30 slots on Tuesdays and Wednesdays are open for make ups. If you have an agreed upon rain date with your opposing team, make sure to contact Bill Ryan by text at 802-363-1365 or email at ryan.ryan.2@comcast.net so he can update the schedule here. Try to hang on to your email for future reference but if you lose it just contact Bill and he will reforward it to you with the attachments.
