CCS game / Awards Banquet / Coach's Message

Our first CCS game will be this Saturday at Sacred Heart Prep (150 Valparaiso Ave, Atherton) at 10:45am. Transportation will depart for the team and coaches at 7:15 am from the MIDDLE SCHOOL. We are avoiding the parking confusion of the Shoe Game.

///////////////////////////////////////////////

Since multiple coaches were not going to be able to attend the awards banquet if held on 21 November so we have moved it to Wednesday 03 December at 6:00 in the cafeteria. We didn't want to schedule it for Thanksgiving week and Coach Gaily needs time to create the video. More details on team assignments to follow. This is a mandatory attend function if you can at all make it. Remember that we will be collecting parkas and play books at that time. Parkas must be clean and dry. There will be fines and grades held for parkas and playbooks not returned.

Freshman, JV, Varsity players and Parents:

The varsity boys need your support.  After a heroic performance we won our league championship.  If you weren’t there…shame on you   You missed one of the most exciting victories you’ll ever witness in sports.  We were huge underdogs, but we managed to shock Soquel once again.  It was amazing!  Now we’ve earned a selection to Central Coast Section Tournament.  We play the 4th seeded St. Ignatius in the Quarter Finals.  If we were to win it would be the first time in history that a Carmel High water polo team has advanced to the semi-finals of the CCS championship tournament.  We are the smallest public school in the entire tournament, by far!  We love being underdogs!!

One key to our great victory last Saturday was our fans who outnumbered Soquel fans by a ton.  They were loud!!!!!  It helped give us the energy needed to win that game.

We need everyone to be there to cheer the boys on.  I encourage everyone to make a day trip out of it.  Yes, it’s a Saturday.  Yes it’s a 1-2 hour drive.  I get it, but come on carpool some boys together, bring them up and give them a glimpse of what they may be able to achieve in the coming years.  Grab In n’ out Burger on the way home, what could be better?!!

The game is Saturday, 10:45am at Sacred Heart Prep School in Atherton.  You should have plenty of time to make it back for the “Shoe” game at Carmel High.  

This is a big deal.  We can win this game!!  But, We need your support.  

Sincerely,

Coach Gaily
