Pre-Game and Halftime Snacks Needed:

Pure Protein Bars – Costco

Granola Bars – Nature Valley

Fruit Snacks – Costco has some great options

Trail Mix – Small packages for kids to each real quick

Propel Flavored Water

Money donated for Crustables and bananas too.  I usually buy these the night before games.  Donation of these items are great too.

We have around 30 players playing in JV games and 35 players playing in Varsity games.  The players really appreciate these snacks and I feel they help them perform at a higher level.

Thanks,

Coach Peeler

Sports physicals will be Wednesday August 7th from 10am to 4pm at Elmira High School.  $20 fee.

The Falcon Football Team Store is now open.  This is where you can purchase any spirit wear for the season.  The store will be open until midnight on Wednesday August 14.  After it closes, then it will take around 3 – 4 weeks to complete.  All items will be delivered to me and I will then pass it out.  There are a lot of options this year with items having multiple color options.  Please look it over.  The hope is to have it by the Siuslaw Varsity game.  The link is below.

West Lane Fitness wants to offer a 4 week plyometric/strength and conditioning program to our high school football players.  This would be led by an ex-navy seal trainer.  The class would be every Tuesday and Thursday for the 4 weeks at West Lane Fitness in Veneta, OR.  This program will be affiliated with the fitness center, not football, but provide pre-season training to get players more ready for the up coming season.  The cost would be $69.  Checks would be made to West Lane Fitness.  Time will be around 12:00pm or 1:00pm.  Again, this is a great opportunity for players to be pushed a little more and to help them prepare for the season.  We need to have at least 5 players, but I am hoping we will have more players interested.  If interested, please let me know ASAP through Remind or email me at jpeeler@fernridge.k12.or.us.  This would start next Tuesday and last for 4 weeks.  I hope to see a lot of players interested and there.

Thanks,

Coach Peeler

The football staff has thought long and hard about our Team Camp to George Fox. At this time, we have decided to cancel going to that team camp.

We will be doing one of two things:

1.  Do our own team camp the same Friday night and All day Saturday. The cost of this would be around $50 per player to help offset the cost of food and other items.
2. Do our own team camp on Friday night and then go to Western Oregon for a one day camp. This would cost $70 per player. I have a call in to Western to see if this still open and to get more info.  Players may need to bring some money for lunch and dinner, but not sure yet.  This camp had renegade (players not with a team) that we may be able to pick up as lineman.

Either way, this would save parents a lot of money.  I want to keep the schedule and calendar the same for now. I know parents plan around the calendar.

if you have not paid for camp yet, please hold off until I finalize what we are doing. If you have paid already, I will be in contact with you sometime early in the week.

Thanks for the understanding,

Coach Peeler

First practice is Tuesday from 3:40 – 5:30.  Players will only need cleats for practice.  8th graders will need bus notes to ride the bus to high school or walk.  Lets make this season great!

GO FALCONS!

Thanks,

Coach Peeler

Monday is the helmet fitting day.  Current high school players will be fitted during lunch in the weight room.  8th graders will be during 7th period in the FRMS locker room.  It is really important that all players are at school on Monday to be fitted.

Thanks,

Coach Peeler
