HZRPC and the Football program will sponsor a Positive Coaches Alliance (PCA) Workshop on Wednesday, March 10, 2010 at 7:00PM in the HHS Cafeteria. Please alert your coaches. As you know, this is mandatory for anyone wishing to coach football. If you or anyone you know that is wishing to coach this season have not met this requirement, please don't delay. This is the last workshop until football starts. There is no charge. Just notify Donna King (daking@baltimorecountymd.gov) at the rec office of your intent to attend. This will be The Double Goal Coach: Culture, Practices, and Games workshop. It is the second session for those coaches who attended the workshop in the fall, but anyone can attend even if they did not come to the fall workshop. These workshops are a valuable tool for any coach. Please contact me if you have any questions.
MANDATORY FOOTBALL MEETINGS:
It's that time of year again! Coaches meetings will be held from 6:30-8:30 at the Butler Fire Hall on the 3rd Monday of every month. These meetings will start in February and continue until July. Anyone interested in coaching, either head coach or assistant coach, must attend these meetings. There will be area coaches from high school and college giving us tips and coaching advise.
Hope to see you there...
CONGRATULATIONS to the new Hereford 9-11 national Champions!!!! For the first
time in program history a Hereford team has gone to a national championship
tournament. Not only did they earn the right to participate in this prestigious
tournament, they travelled over 1000 miles and dominated the competition and won
the whole thing! They trounced an undefeated Massachusetts team 44-0 in the
semifinals. But they were just prepping for the championship game, which they
dominated an Ohio team 32-6. This is an unbelievable accomplishment for our
program, and it is a tribute to supportive parents, tough and committed players,
and a dedicated coaching staff. The team was treated to a heroes welcome when
they returned home with an escort from the Hereford Fire Department. Coach
Sassler commented that all the boys peaked at the right time, rising to the
occasion, and it was a total team effort. His discipline of instilling curfews
shows the dedication of his players, and it paid off in a big way. Way to go and
congratulations to Coach Sassler and his staff and players on a truly
outstanding achievement!!!
