5th Annual Alumni Game

Thanks to all who came out for the Newport Harbor Field Hockey’s 5th Annual Alumni Game! We had a great turn out for the game – both players and fans! With a 2-0 win, the Alumni Team was victorious and ended the Current Players’ two-year winning streak. The Boosters made a great BBQ lunch for all – it was a great day!

Summer Camp & Tryouts Come to an End

“Thank you to all who participated in our summer camp and tryouts. This year marked the largest number of new and returning players in the program’s history, therefore the selection process was very difficult as there are only a limited number of spots between the three teams. The coaching staff and I had to make some tough decisions as we considered each athlete’s skill, speed, stamina, strength, progression, coach-ability, work ethic, attitude, and potential. While we look forward to the 2010-2011 season, we regret having to cut any player and recognize the dedication and commitment that she has shown by participating in the summer camp. We hope that this disappointment does not stop athletes from pursuing the many other activities and programs offered at Newport Harbor.

We also invite those who did not get placed onto a team to tryout next year. If anyone has any questions or would like an assessment of current strengths and areas for improvement, please feel free to contact me at amandamboyer@gmail.com.

Thank you again for your participation and understanding,

Amanda Boyer”

Field Hockey Yoga

A big thank you to Kristin Storey for teaching a yoga class for the Newport Harbor Field Hockey girls yesterday! There was wide range of experience, from first timers to yogis doing crow pose. It was a fun afternoon of yoga!
