The Parkview soccer field has held up fairly well with July's drought-like conditions.

1. Have you obtained your sports physical using MSHSAA’s new form? It must be turned in prior to your participation with the team. The form is accessible from the “Forms” page on this site.

2. Have you recruited two children to participate in our Kids’ Camp August 8-10? All players are expected to recruit campers, as this is our primary fundraising event each and every year. The camp registration form is accessible from the “Kids’ Camp” page on this site.

3. Concussion Baseline Screenings are being done by the athletic training staff during our last practice of the summer July 28. We meet at 4 PM in the weight room, and then we move outside around 5 PM. All players are strongly encouraged to attend.

4. Dead week runs from July 29 through August 7. Players and coaches should not have any sports-related contact during those days; however, players and parents can reach Coach Nurnberg with questions pertaining to the upcoming season.

Our scrimmage in Rolla is cancelled for now due to it being Father’s Day. Neither team was going to have enough players. We will try to reschedule.

Practice tonight is also looking doubtful. If it’s raining at 5 PM, we will cancel.

1. 

   Like hungry frogs, Parkview boys soccer will eat bugs in order to master their environment.

   Please visit the the Calendar on our web site to see the entire summer and fall important dates. 

   1. Note that our first training session is June 9 (5-6:30 PM). We will meet every Thursday throughout the summer.
   2. Also note that our first friendly will be June 19 in Rolla, a Sunday afternoon game that will require us to carpool up there. We will meet at the Grant Street parking lot that day at 1 PM, play 4 PM at Rolla High School, and arrive back to Parkview by 8:30 PM or so. Parents are encouraged to attend and transport players there and back. Other local scrimmages will be scheduled as we go.
2. Please send me an email from all of your regular email addresses (yours and your parents’) so I can add you to my distribution list. My email address is jnurnberg@spsmail.org. Email me if you need my cell phone number.
3. Remember that our team camp is June 27-30, 4-7 PM. The cost is $40, and make checks payable to me (Clint Nurnberg). Bring your payment to any of the first few practice days or the Rolla scrimmage. Most of the money will be deposited into the school’s account for boys’ soccer to be used for my tuition to the 2012 NSCAA Advanced National Diploma.
4. Remember your fitness goals to achieve during our first August practice:
   1. Two-mile run in less than 13 minutes.
   2. Sit-ups: 75 with no rests
   3. Push-ups: 50 with no rests.
5. Recruit campers for the PHS Kids’ Camp. The Springfield Legends Soccer Club is doing its own camp this summer, so many of those kids will not be there to buoy our numbers.
