Valdosta Soccer Guidelines for Discount Card Sale

The discount cards are in!! You must come see me in my classroom starting tomorrow (10/13/20) to get your discount cards to sell. It is important that you come get your cards ASAP since the card sales will end on November 2nd 2020. You have two ways of selling your cards: You can sell them the traditional way (face to face and with cash/check) OR You can sell them with the following link which allows people to purchase online with a credit card (https://www.afsports.biz/order/FDEV37). Just make sure people that use the link list you as the player that they bought a card from.
My room number is 1003-114. Every face to face student should have time during the day to come see me at some point and get the cards and information. If you are a virtual student, contact me and we can arrange a way for you to pick up your cards. Players are responsible for keeping up with their cards and money from sales. All unsold cards must be returned. Failure to return unsold cards will result in charges added to your student account.
This is our big fundraiser this year. You will raise $10 for each card sold, and that money will be applied to your $200 cash in dues. So, if you sell 20, you are done with your cash dues for the year!! But don’t stop with 20…. We have big prizes for people that sell more: bluetooth headphones, custom dri fit shirt, custom hoodie, and $120 Nike gift card.

Below this, you can find an attachment with more information about the fundraiser, dates for goals, and prizes.

9/22/20 Meeting Notes:

Mrs. Laura Wood is the new VHS Soccer Booster Club President.
An announcement will be made soon in regards to the VHS girls' Head Varsity position. In the meantime, I (Coach Carrillo) need all returning girls to make sure I have them on the roster that I have, and I need new girls to make sure that I get their name and grade. In addition, I need every girl, whether returning or new, to get me a copy of their physical. I need to have a physical copy of the physical. If a physical has been turned in to another sport’s coach, I can check for the trainer for a copy. If he does not have one, I need the student athlete to find a copy.
While on the topic of physicals, all boys should also make sure that I have a new physical for them to participate in any activities. You need to get a new one now that will be good throughout the rest of the school year. This is the reason for not starting workouts next week. I am giving you time to get a new one. I have plenty of copies of the form if you need one and there is a copy of the form on the website under the documents tab.
Wildcat Soccer backpacks available for purchase. Sales begin immediately. Money and order can be turned in to Coach Carrillo. Everyone try to get one. The cost for the backpacks is $55.
In October, our program will participate in a big fundraiser. The fundraiser will be a sale of discount cards that contain coupons for local businesses. The plan is to sell the cards for $20 each. This is a huge opportunity to raise cash for your dues and for the program. If we have 80 players sell just 10 cards a piece, we are looking at raising around 8-10 thousand dollars. Any money you raise from card sales is deducted from your dues. We will have a player meeting soon to set up accounts for the sales with a rep from the company we are using. The account will help you sell discount cards in cash sales and debit or credit card sales.
Workouts and conditioning for the boys will begin soon. I am hoping for Monday October 5th, but that depends on weight room availability. While I cannot make workouts and conditioning mandatory, I will establish an incentive for players that do not miss workouts and conditioning with a valid excuse. I know most players will participate simply from the desire to have a successful season. After each day of workouts and conditioning, I will stay with 4 players to work on skill building soccer drills.
The rules and expectations for the program are available on the team website under the documents tab.
Our 2021 schedule is almost complete but it has not been posted since we are looking for one more game.

Physicals: Boys and Girls, you must have an updated physical on file with Coach Carrillo to participate in any fall activities or to play during the season. If you are not sure if your physical is still good, contact Coach Carrillo by email (roberto.carrillo@gocats.org). We will have skill building practices this fall, and you will miss out if you do not have a physical on file. Get it done now, before you miss out on activities!!

UPDATE: The soccer booster club has masks and guards left after the pre-orders that were placed. Order yours before this design is gone!!
The Valdosta High School Soccer Boosters are selling custom Wildcat face masks and guards. A picture of the items is below. The face masks are $10 and the guards are $10.

During order email, please provide your name and the school you work at. If you do not work in the school system, pick up can be arranged. Payments can be made through cash app during the order if needed.

The masks and guards are here, so you can get yours now! GO CATS!!!

Physicals:

The most up-to-date physical form has been uploaded to this website. You can find it under the documents tab. Please make sure that you use this form when you get your physical. Many clinics do not have the most up-to-date form, and we will not be able to accept your physical if it was not done with the must updated form. Boys: Turn your physical in to Coach Carrillo, and he will make a copy.

Remind App:

Sign up for the boys' and girls' soccer remind. Updates can be found on this website, but with the remind app, you can receive alerts and updates directly on your phone.
