2012/2013 Teams Posted

The 2012-2013 Newport Harbor Field Hockey Teams and information has been posted to the Teams Page.

“Thank you to all who participated in the summer camp and tryouts. The Varsity team has won the Tournament of Champions (equivalent to CIF) four years consecutively, which has made the Newport Harbor Field Hockey program very competitive and there are only a limited number of spots between our three teams. The coaching staff and I had to make some difficult decisions as we considered each athlete’s skill, speed, stamina, strength, progression, coach-ability, work ethic, attitude, and 4-year potential. While we look forward to the 2012-2013 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 High School. We also invite those who did not get placed onto a team to tryout next year. If you have 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”
