Off-Season Tomorrow

Off-Season Field Hockey is on for tomorrow at 2:00 – 4:00. All players (including those who are transferring to Lacrosse) are to be there.

Those players who are switching to Lacrosse will report to Coach Matt Armstrong on Monday, January 22. The remaining field hockey players will finish off-season next Monday and Wednesday.

Coach Kerrie’s Loss

To the Newport Harbor Field Hockey Family:

I shared with the girls at Off-Season Field Hockey on Monday about the news that JV Coach Kerrie Gates’ father, Pete, passed away suddenly last Wednesday, January 4 from a massive heart attack. It has been a difficult time for all those involved, but especially for Kerrie and her older sister, Laurie. Your thoughts and prayers are most appreciated.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Sincerely,
Amanda

Celebrations in O.C. Life

A photo from the Newport Harbor Varsity Field Hockey TOC Championship was in the Daily Pilot on a page highlighting ‘2011’s Best’.

“This year our photographers were witness to many of the celebrations and victories big and small, individual and team, personal and public, that filled the pages of our Times Community newspapers. You have to be ready to capture the moment. Look away and its gone. Sometimes there’s too much, like in close games, and sometimes too little, like a couple kissing on their 50th wedding anniversary. Either way, the challenge is to capture the moment that sums up the joy.”
