Xtreme Soccer Club

Please plan on attending practice on Tues night.  If you have not yet paid Fall Fee’s, they need to be paid ASAP!!  Linda is our bookkeeper.  All fully rostered players owe $125.00.  Make checks payable to XTREME SOCCER.  Jen is supposed to be back in town this week, so she SHOULD be available to start working with the girls next week.  See you TUESDAY…..

Our Xtreme girls dominated the U14 girls division at the 3v3 Summer Sizzler hosted by Ozark High School….going undefeated and looking like a finely tuned machine!! The Summer Sizzler had 53 teams entered and from what I’ve been hearing….it was a huge hit with everyone!! Congratulations to Coach Kristi for FINALLY bringing home a 1st PLACE FINISH!!! Thanks for taking care of the girls….Jim and Linda were excellent umbrella holders and Payton’s grandparents were super helpful with the girls, too!! We love our teams…just wish the WHOLE team could have been there to play!! We all look like lobsters, but it sure was FUN!!! Great work girls!!

Jen Simeck, one of the Drury Panthers Assistant coaches will be taking the helm this year for our U15 team. Jen will be joining us not this week, but next week at trainings. Steve will continue to serve as assistant coach…especially on the weekends that Jen is on road trips with the Drury Girls. We are VERY blessed to have someone with Jen’s knowledge and experience wanting to join our team. Apparently there may have been other offers on the table for her ….and she felt like our team would be a better fit for her!! When she does join up with trainings, be sure to give her the Xtreme Welcome and make her feel at home….introduce yourself and let’s make sure she knows how happy we are to have her on board.

Check back for 3 v 3 details and/or camp details for next week!!

Stay tuned…..You WILL be impressed!!

Coach Tom will be running practices this week and really needs the girls to be there to go over team preperation for the upcoming season. Please bring your daughters registration forms to practice.

Pete and his Dragons came home in 2nd place from the Rolla 3 v 3 tournament this past Saturday. Pete (Coach Tom) Morgan, Lexi, Hayley, Payton and Marie racked up 20 goals while their opponents were only able to squeak 9 goals by. Morgan was taken out in the 2nd game….but Mikaela had come along to watch, and was able to step in and finish the tournament in Morgan’s place…talk about right time, right place!! Great job girls. They had a BLAST and it was sure fun to watch!! Also, Pete (Coach Tom) played on a team with the Rolla’s H.S. coach (also a 500 victory coach) his wife, the UMR coach and won first place in the “Old People” division!! Great job to him as well!!

We have the dates set….Aug 3-6. What an awesome time the girls will have. It will take everyone to pull this one off!!  You MUST send in a $50 deposit to Kristi Stagner (her address is on the form). This is currently ONLY open to the older team, but once we know how many girls will be going from our U15/14 we will know how many of the U13 girls we can open it up to as well. We have lots of coaches on board already for this…so make sure you reserve your daughters spot ASAP!! See you next week (some at Tom’s camp and others for Open Play)…..=0)

Open play is open to all U14/U15 and Older girls. It will be at Ozark H.S. grass field from 7:00-8:30. Feel free to bring a friend. All Xtreme players are highly encouraged to attend these open plays. Here are the dates:

June:

4,18

July

2,16,30

Thanks for all of you who have confirmed your return to the team. We have one girl leaving to join another team (we hope she finds what she is looking for!) and Sam is moving back to California =0( We hope Sam will return to the area some day!!

Open Play will be an opportunity for any girls incoming 7th grade and up to come and scrimmage. All Xtreme Girls are HIGHLY encouraged (not necessarily REQUIRED….but you know what I’m getting at!) to attend each of these open plays. Any other girls who are interested in potentially joining a team OR just want to come out and get some touches on the ball are welcome to come out. They will be at the Ozark High School (grass) fields every other Monday through the end of July. Invite friends so that we can have a great turnout and get a good scrimmage in!!

We are in the midst of organizing our camp for the summer. More details will be available soon. This will be an awesome time for the girls…please put Aug 3-6 (Sun-Wed) on your calendar…this will be a residential camp for Xtreme U14/U15 players, but a day camp for younger players.

Here is the schedule for OPEN PLAY: MONDAY’S: June 2, 16, 30 from 7:00-8:30. July 14 is our Pizza Inn Fund Raiser….so July 28 will be the last open play. Camp will be the Sunday after that, then practice for the Fall will begin after camp. We do have a roster of 14 girls FOR SURE returning…both U14 and U15. We will also have enough girls to play U14 in the Spring when our U15 girls play H. S. ball. If you have not responded back to me to reserve your spot on the team, you have until June 1st. At that point, if we feel like we need additional players, we will fill those spots. Again, this is not to punish anyone for not responding to us, but rather to be respectful to our current players.

Any questions, please feel free to drop me a line 582-1107 (Missy). Keep checking back for Camp Details!!

Anyone who has not e-mailed me to confirm their daughters spot on the Xtreme U14 (U15 this Fall) team need do so by June 1st.  I have heard back from everyone but about 3-4 girls…..some I’m sure just forgot!!  Those of you who were interested in the 3v3, I will contact you personally about the tournament!  Have a great week!!

The end of yet another season is upon us.  We had a really good year.  Several new face and many familiar faces.  We’ve done a ton of growing over the past 9 months.  It’s been a great experience to watch the girls grow as a team, and odd to watch them play against each other during middle school….but still fun to see so many familiar faces!!

First we want to thank Steve for all his countless hours of dedicated to your daughter.  He coaches because he loves the game and the competition.  He has always donated his time to our team and has asked nothing in return but dedication and loyalty to our team!  Our girls have grown and progressed under his guidance, and we thank him for that!!

Next, we want to thank Melissa for stepping in this Spring to add a new perspective to coaching.  The girls really looked up to Melissa as a role model…and a fine one she is!!  She has added a “girl” flare to the team that has been absent with all our guy coaches.  It’s been a pleasure to have you on board, Melissa,  and we wish you nothing but success in the future!!

We will be looking towards the Fall now.  We will have an opportunity for the girls to do several things this summer.  Fund Raisers, camps, team building, open play….We will be in touch soon about the opportunities that we will be offering.  Coaching is something we have been taking into consideration.  Steve truly enjoys his role on the sidelines, but we also feel like having a female coach is important for the girls as well.  We have two potential coaches to take Melissa’s place.  If we get either one of them….we will have exceptional coaching for our girls.  Both are/were/are tremendous soccer players themselves….playing in college, All-American/All-State status girls.  We will let everyone know who we will have to co-coach with Steve as soon as we can get some confirmation!!

Again, Thank you coach Steve and Coach Melissa….and most of all JOB WELL DONE GIRLS!!

Our Xtreme Family is one of a kind….

We have yet another double header this coming weekend….and a chance at revenge.  We will play Total @ 8:30 and the Lakers at 2:30 (both on field 8).  Everyone is then invited to gather at Cici’s Pizza on W. Battlefield after the 2:30 game for a “celebratory” dinner.  Kristi will have information on upcoming Fund Raising opportunities.  If you can’t make it, please make sure you see Kristi prior to leaving the 2:30 game to return your daughters warm ups and to get a flier about the fund raisers she has planned.  We will also have some information regarding summer camps, open play, etc…  If for some reason you still owe for any league fee’s or uniform costs, you will need to have those paid to Linda by Saturday.  See you Saturday!!

We play at 8:30 against Total on field MT7 AND 2:30 against the Lakers on field LCS 8. Get a good nights rest….early games don’t always agree with us!! Let’s take it to them. Please arrive at least 30 minutes prior to game time.

We are very pleased to see Melissa back up and “limping” We continue to wish her a speedy recovery!!

PS….please check your REVISED schedule (still not posted on Lake Country’s web site). We DO HAVE TWO GAMES on Saturday, May 10th @ 8:30 and 2:30 both on LCS 8. This will be against Total and the Lakers. These are our last games of the season, although we will continue to practice for the Toyota Cup.

There is a H. S. game Thursday, so we will be practicing at Upper at normal time.  Please check back before leaving for practice for any weather related changes.

SSC came out for revenge at Saturday’s game…and got it.  I don’t remember the last time SSC 94/95 has beat Xtreme, so this had to be a huge victory for them.  We will continue with practice on Thursday and will have a double header on Saturday @ 8:30 and 2:30.

I spoke with Melissa post op.  She was feeling very ill  and was having a tough time keeping anything  down, therefore unable to take her pain medication.  The operation was a success and she and her trainer hope to see things heal quickly.  We all wish Melissa a speedy recovery!!

Just a reminder that practice is still on at Ozark High School from 5:00-6:30.  Keep checking the web for weather related updates…….

Congratulations to the Xtreme U14 girls for another VICTORY against SSC. We will have practice this Thursday at Ozark High School from 5:00-6:30 and a double header on Saturday game at 8:30am Saturday A.M.. See you then, and congrats again to the girls VICTORY!!!!
