| I will be loading in the schedule today and tomorrow. Please notice the time change for the 4-5 age group. I am changing the second games to 7:15 instead of 7pm. This is to aleviate some of the traffic and congestion between games. I apologise if it is a bit too late for some 4-5 yr olds but it is only 15 extra minutes and anyone caught in the chaos between games last year will be happy with the time separation. | |||||||

| The correct schedule will be posted soon. We are forced to start the leagues the week of June 221st. We are still having issues with some coaches not calling their kids yet. We are working hard to get this fixed. This is the last year we will allow late sign ups! As of May 1st we had less than 450 children signed up. We now have over 650 and people are swearing at us on our voice mail that we are not returning their calls to put their kids on a specific team on June 14th. We allow requests and Jean goes to great pains to honor all reasonable requests. We still may be able to find a spot for your child but it is 2 months late to handle requests. PLEASE SIGN UP ON TIME!!! | |||||||

| This note was sent to our local politicians because of the vandalism we noticed at Durant field yesterday: To Whom it may concern: Last night we (The South Buffalo Soccer Club) were forced to cancel the games at Durant Playground because there were 3-5 inch tiretracks all over the field. This act of vandalism actually put me over the edge. They ruin the nets regularly but we diligently repair or replace them to show them that they won't win the battle for control of the playground. I was called to the field last night because the tracks and divots ruined the field to the point where it is unusable. They ruined the nets with the vehicles to the point where they cannot be repaired with our limited resources. I have personally picked up the portapotty 6 times. On one occasion the 12-15 people on the park benches laughed at me and one person told me not to waste my time, they would just knock it down once I left. Sure enough, I drove past 5 minutes later and it was on it's side again. We regularly remove the dog droppings off the field as the nieghbors don't feel it is their job to do so. Sometimes there are as many as 20 piles of droppings on the field. There is no pride left in the neighborhood. The one negative thing I find with the county work crews was that the field was lined well, but someone must have noticed the tracks on the field but we were never notified. It would not have made much difference, we still would have made the same decision to cancel the games but it would have been helpful to hear about the vandalism when it was first noticed. In the future you can tell the crew that it is not necessary to line the field anymore. It will not be used by us. Moving forward, we are forced to move to the Casino field in Cazenovia Park and Southside School. I hate to give up on the Durant Field because Mike Blake worked hard to have the soccer goals put there many years ago, but I should not have to fear for my safety when I ask a group of kids to stop swearing around the children. I don't feel comfortable there anymore. I would like to request that the beat up portapotty at Durant Playground be moved to Southside School. There is a portapotty at the playground but the 4-5 year olds have a difficult time reaching the playground "in time". If it could be put near the entrance to the track, it would be great. Thanks to Tim Kennedy for getting the portapotties at the other fields! There are a lot less complaints this year! I asked Mr Hornung if there is any greenspace available in South Buffalo that we can utilize to make more soccer fields. Maybe you can give me some ideas? The sport continues to grow and I'd like to be able to limit the field abuse by using more fields. Every year we have a conflict with the South Buffalo Football league because we both need Hillary Park. I would love to have the luxury of not needing to use those fields after Aug 1 but there aren't any extra fields around. I would also like to take this opportunity to humbly ask for some funding in the future. The goalposts at Potter Rd, Tennis Courts, and Behind Tosh Collins are all anchored in the ground. I would like to purchase some semi-portable goals so we can move the lines each year a bit so the goal areas have a chance to grow grass. Each year we plant grass or lay sod in the goal areas but it never lasts because the field is used everyday and gets worn out usually before the season is underway. I'm sure Mr Hornung can give me 50 other reasons for the grass not growing but I think the time has come for some real goalposts. Thank you to Mickey Kearns for helping last year when our goals were stolen for scrap metal last year and to Mr Hornung for putting me in contact with another organization that had an extra set of goals. With the goals at Hillary, we are able to move the field each year and the fields remain in good condition. I hope to be able to do that on all fields. Thank you for your time and please let me know if you are willing to help! Tom Finn President South Buffalo Soccer Club | |||||||

| As of now all games are on for today! It is raining now but we do play in the rain. Please do not call your coaches or our home to inquire if games are cancelled. I will post online here if games need to be postponed. If there is no posting the games are on and the referee is the only one who can call off the game. | |||||||

| I have had many people ask me if they can sign up their 3 year old to play in the 4-5 yr old division. I don't like to allow it unless they turn 4 over the summer. The other exception I allow is when the kids parent is the coach. It is difficult enough to keep 15 4 and 5 year old kids motivated and interested in soccer, it is too much to ask a coach to babysit a 3 year old. I will sign up my 3 year old next year when he is 4. | |||||||
