Each of you provided a Volunteer deposit at the time of team registrations. There will be several opportunities to fulfill your volunteer commitment this season – in which case, your deposit is not cashed by SAJO. To find out about how you can volunteer, go to the “Volunteers” tab at the top of the SAJO home page. You will see opportunities such as: Parent Coordinators, Tournament Planning Committee, and Border Battle Tournament options. When you go to the individual pages, there is a link to our Volunteer Spot so you can sign up online. If you have any problems with signing up on the site, you can email me at brenda@welsch.org with your preferences.
The SAJO Board and coaches look forward to your involvement. Volunteers help drive the success of SAJO. Thank you for getting involved!

Weekend tournaments and February practice Schedule
January 17th, 2012 at 6:23 by adminAll of the teams played in a tournament this weekend and I got a chance to watch a little bit of every team. The SAJO teams were quite successful with several top finishes and good showings by the rest. The girls looked sharp in their new warmups as well. Watch your teams website page for pictures and updates.
Way to represent girls! The coaches and players should be proud.
The practice schedule has been posted for February. Take a look at the times closely as they have changed slightly from January. We are continuing to try to accommodate schedules of coaches and players and tried our best to make the schedule work. Please work with your coaches on schedule conflicts.

Panther Challenge – Alexandra House Donation
January 13th, 2012 at 5:14 by rleonardSAJO has 6 teams playing in this weekend’s Panther Challenge Tournament/Play Date. The tournement flyer mentions bringing a donation for the Alexandra House. This is somewhat new for a tournament, so the SAJO Club has decided to provide a donation of Baby Food on behalf of the entire club. You are welcome to bring an additional donation, but wanted everyone to be aware that we are donating at a club level, so there is no additional obligation from each player.
Good luck this weekend to all SAJO teams!
January 11th, 2012 at 2:03 by adminHello Ladies!
As our first weekend of tournaments approach, SAJO would like to take the time to wish all of our players and coaches lots of luck this season. We are very excited for the talent and dedication we’ve already seen over the past month and are looking forward to seeing each of you put that to the test over the next few months.
Have fun and good luck!

January 11th, 2012 at 7:19 by bwelschUniforms are being distributed at the practices this week. They look great! Advice from some coaches: wash your jerseys before your first tournament.
Please check your order and contact Janelle Swanson at St. Croix Screen Printing if you are missing any pieces that your ordered. Janelle can be reached at nellieswan@gmail.com.
There are a few uniforms that are still in the process of getting numbers on them. Those will be available later this week (on time for the Panther Challenge).
Tournament Schedules (preliminary) Posted – and Uniforms will be delivered this week

There will likely be more tournaments scheduled in the coming weeks. See the SAJO calendar for preliminary tournament schedules and watch for updates.

Good luck to all our SAJO teams as you start the 2012 club season!
Mandatory Officiating clinic December 20th
December 10th, 2011 at 4:21 by adminAll players and coaches must attend an officiating clinic each year in order to be able to officiate during tournaments. Since we are responsible for officiating matches at the tournaments we participate in it is mandatory that everyone attend one.
SAJO is hosting an NCR officiating clinic this year at the SAHS main forum room on December 20th at 6:30. If you cannot attend this you must make alternate plans to attend another NCR sponsored clinic. If you need to attend an alternate clinic then send an email to the club with the desired clinic so we can get you registered.
Thanks.
