Hello!
First, I would like to thank all of the players and parents who braved the heat today to help make this one of the most successful bake sales to date. Sophomores and Seniors raised $650!! Well Done!
Freshmen and Juniors - it is up to you to beat that number in February!
Speaking of heat, I am sure you are all well aware of the heat wave we are currently in. Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday will be the hottest days with temps in the mid 90's. The coaching staff is well aware of the danger excessive heat can have on athletes. Please know that your daughter's health and well-being is our top priority. We are planning on having light practice all three days and focusing on the tactical aspect of the game. There will be no jogging to JAMS M-W and there will be no fitness based running. All girls will get plenty of water breaks. We strongly suggest bringing lots of water and ask that players drink thought the day to stay hydrated. We will abide by any district-wide mandates regarding outdoor activities if they come to fruition. We have a plan B that we will implement if conditions are no longer deemed safe. I will update any changes via Remind 101. The good news is that there will be about a 20 degree drop on Thursday and Friday.
Thank you to all who placed orders for spirt gear. They have been submitted. Gear will be available by the middle of next week. Payment is due at the time of delivery.
This week is Homecoming week with lots of activities as well including a Pep Rally on Friday. Players, please note the bell schedule for Friday. Homecoming week will have no effect on our practice schedule. Players jogging to JAMS on Thursday and Friday should meet Coach Chapman at 2:30 (Th) and 2:40 (Fr) at the Barnum Parking lot.
On Nov 3rd, 7:30pm at UCLA's Womens Soccer Team will take on cross-town rival USC. Game will be played at UCLA's Drake Stadium. The Samohi Girls Soccer family has been personally invited by our very own alum, Sam Greene. She is one of the coaches of the #2 ranked team in the country. UCLA is trying to beat the all time NCAA attendance record to ever watch a game and they need our help. They are hoping to get 12K fans in attendance. For this game tickets are only $1. All are welcome. We would love if all of the players could make the Friday night game and wear their Samo gear. If we can get over 30 players, I will have Sam recognize us on the Jumbo Tron!

All players received flyers on Friday for our Samohi Soccer Christmas Tree Fundraiser. It is an amazing opportunity to get holiday trees and decorations while helping out our program. Our goal is to get every player to sell two items. All sales must take place by Nov 14th. Here is the link:

Have a wonderful week and stay cool!!
Best,
Coach Chapman
