Mid-Michigan Lakers

All, please see the information below regarding two upcoming tournaments.  The hotel prices are good until May 5 ONLY!  Thanks again to Mr. and Mrs. Wells for there hard work!

Hello Laker Parents!

 

Listed below are the hotels that were available and willing to offer a group discount.  You will need to contact each hotel and reserve your family’s room(s) with your own contact and credit card information.

If your player will need transportation to the tournament(s) AND would like to stay, we (Deven Wells parents, Becky and Anthony) are able to help with transportation, but would request you still book a room for your player. You may text me to work out bunking with another player if there’s enough, and splitting the cost amongst those sharing the room.  However, I would respectfully ask that you send the appropriate monies with your player’s for meals, snacks, drinks and expenses.  Both hotels do provide a free hot breakfast and I’m sure the boys will be more than happy to utilize that.

Please, feel free to contact me via text or email.  During the day, these are the two most efficient methods to communicate with me due to working in a high school classroom.

In addition, U16 player Deven Wells’ parents have very kindly offered their help in transporting players to tournaments when they possibly can, so if you are need of help with travel, please let Deven or Mrs. Becky Wells know as soon as you know.  In addition, Mrs. wells is looking into hotel room blocks in Kalamazoo and Mt. Pleasant, so for those in need, please again let her know.  MML wants to thank the Wells family for their help and support.

Finally, if you have not paid your fees or made an arrangement with Coach Miller, you need to do one or the other by tomorrow’s practice.  we need to take care of these responsibilities promptly.  Thanks!

All, here we are again at the start of another tournament season.  I know that we have a had a number of issues that caused to get off to a bit of a shaky start, but things will smooth out as they always do.  As always the focus is on improvement, versus merely winning games (though that should come as we improve).  EVERYONE is expected to arrive at least 30 minutes before their game time.  The following is the current schedule for the tournament this weekend, BUT continue to monitor the website for changes until Friday at 4pm.  Each team will have 3 guaranteed games.  If you win the 3rd game, you continue on until you lose.
