Under 7 program - The Bloomfield program is up and running and will continue every Tuesday and Thursday from 10 am to 10:45 am. The first night for O’Leary tonight had to be canceled due to the heat warning that was out there but we will hopefully get back on track next week. Tignish, Alberton and Ellerslie should all start up tomorrow (July 10). Tignish from 9 am to 10 am, Alberton from 5:15 to 6:15 pm and Ellerslie at 4:30 pm. As we get closer to the first jamboree date we will figure out how many teams we will have for sure for both boys and girls
Under 9 program - The first night for practices in O’Leary tonight had to be canceled due to the heat warning that was out there but we will hopefully get back on track next week. Tignish, Alberton and Ellerslie should all be having practices tomorrow (July 10). Tignish from 10 am to 11 am, Alberton from 6:30 to 7:30 pm and Ellerslie at 5:30 pm.
The updated team rosters are as follows for each community. There are no further planned changes to these rosters. We have done what we can to try and allow for parents to work together for car pooling and such but at some point we have to say that things are set and we have to try and go forward with what we have. There are no standings that are going to be kept, no playoff’s to be had, no champions to be crowned - this will be run very similar to how PEI soccer runs their under 11 leagues. At this age, it is about them playing and learning, that is the main focus. If I have missed a name then by all means please let us know but other than that, the games will start on Thursday, July 11

*** Please take note of the following, soccer games do take place in the rain however at the moment there is a special weather statement with a possible extremely heavy amount of rain coming in on Thursday. We will be watching the forecast closely and we will make a decision at 3 pm on Thursday as to whether the games that night will go ahead or not. We want to get the first games in but it has to be safe for players as well. If we don’t get a chance to play them that night then we will try to reschedule to this Saturday morning hopefully as we do want to get everyone 7-8 games if at all possible this summer for this age group.
Under 11 Program -
As mentioned in a previous update, we did not get as many registrations as we would have liked. We did end up with enough registrations from the Ellerslie and Evangeline area to put that group together as one team and then we will combine all of the players from Tignish, Alberton and O’Leary to form a second team. The Ellerslie/Evangeline team will train as a full team. The combined Tignish, Alberton and O’Leary team will see their individual players train with the under 9 teams from their communities but then play together for their scheduled games.
Team rosters are currently as follows:
ELLERSLIE/EVANGELINE - coached by Brian Strongman - Gannon Curran, Ivan Ellsworth, Cooper Lewis, Maximus Rayner, Emerson Strongman, Isaiah Wedge, Kale Adams, Porter Arsenault, Luke Gallant, Elsa-Mae Bulger, Macie Morrison, Zoey Perry-MacGregor, Aleah Couts
