What's Going on this Spring?

I am alway's thinking about the soccer teams at Maranatha. Recruiting, fundraising, studying, and watching video are all activities that occupy the offseason for me. Not everyone is as obsessed as I am, but here are some ways to stay connected to the program in the off-season:
1) Work out with Toby our athletic trainer - even one day a week will help your game.
2) Support your teammates who are playing another sport:
Wrestling
Joel Smith
Men's Basketball
Mike Knepp
George Tagli
Brett Hollenbeck
Women's Basketball
Melissa Nichols
Julie Muse
Emily Kutz
Baseball
Eric Oliver
Bryan Oliver
Tim Reinert
Joel Smith
Erik Eloe
Softball
Angela Fenstermacher
Autumn Byers
Laura Kennedy
3) Look for times to play futsal in the Fitness Center Gym
4) Play indoor in Sun Prairie
5) Sign up for Techniques of Coaching Soccer with your's truly
6) Check this blog
7) Invite someone to soccer camp
8) Stop by my office

I also spend a great deal of time with the Watertown Soccer Club. We will be running a Footskills Academy in the winter, then I train various teams in the spring. For some of you, the best way to prepare for the 2007 season is to make sure that your grades are good and that you are working hard and practicing good stewardship so that your finances will not affect your education or ability to play soccer. - C
