Nothing earth shattering to write about other than the fact that we are now June 28th and 5 weeks before I head off to the pre-tournament camp (yes 5 weeks today) and 6 weeks, 2 days (but who is counting) until we start the tournament with our first game vs Great Britain.
Preparations are fast and furious as we try and get all the required documents submitted and will then have to go about securing our travel VISAs required for entry into China. Not an easy task with only 4 locations in Canada that can issue.. but we will manage. The summer has been slow to get started with fairly crappy weather..... especially on the weekends when you hope to have some free time to enjoy. Preparation for the fall season of the Stingers team is also underway, as we expect 40 participants to show up for training camp. If they all do end up attending, it will certainly be the highest numbers of players we will have started out with in a long time. Hopefully this will raise the level of competitiveness at tryouts and people will work that much harder to earn their spots. We have also changed the format for team selection stretching our usual 1 week selection period to 3 weeks.. not to mention having 5 exhibition games as part of the evaluation. More to follow
