Morris Lions U19s Blog

Banquet is now Sunday June 8th

All,

Over the weekend we had a request to possibly move the banquet from Sat. June 7 to Sunday June 8.

To make it easier to keep track, I only want to hear from those players and families that CANNOT make the Sunday banquet.

Please respond by the weekend.

Thanks,
JS

ps.. I have lots of different updates to send out this week, Jersey Cup, Canada, summer rugby camp, tryout nominees for U18 and U20 Met. Union Select.  I will send each by separate email. Might have to check your spam filters!!!

MetUnion Playoffs

Here are the video highlights from yesterday. For those of you who missed it, the As lost their first game against LI Colts (I don't know the score) and so did not make the regional play-offs sadly. They then played Parsipanny to a hard fought scoreless tie.

The B side played a fantastics game against a combined Parsipanny and Union B side. And despite the A side being disappointed a great day was had by all.
