Summer practice schedule

Posted by Head Coach at Apr 11, 2024 7:23PM PDT

Good evening,

The summer field schedule has been released and our practices will be held on Wednesdays 6-7:30pm and Saturdays 9-10:30am at Hazelden Park (on Hyde Park Rd. near Riverside Dr.) We’ll share out the season schedule for games once available. Once the city releases the fields for play, we will let everyone know and add all sessions to TeamsPages.

Also, a reminder to everyone to e-transfer your $20 payment for the team hoodies to oakridge2012girls@gmail.com ASAP.

Looking forward to seeing most of you on Saturday.

Thank you,
Jessie, Ricky, Steph, and Chris

Clarification

Posted by Head Coach at Apr 2, 2024 6:17PM PDT

Hello Parents,

Wanted to clarify that practices for the next two Saturdays (6th & 13th) at Byron Somerset are from 12-1:30pm, not 1:30 to 3pm as previously scheduled. I’m unable to remove the incorrect session times from our TeamsPages schedule.

Thank you.

Spring 2024 Update

Posted by Head Coach at Apr 1, 2024 4:26PM PDT

Hello Parents,

I hope everyone had an enjoyable long weekend. We are looking forward to the season ahead and we hope you are too! Until we get our field times and locations, we’ll be holding practices in school gyms, BMO indoor centre, and at Western University fields. The calendar will be updated soon with times and locations for the month of April and into early May. A few other notes:

  • The Oakridge Flames would like to enthusiastically thank our 2024 sponsors for their generous support: Leo Millon (LifeLike BioTissue) and John Smallwood (360 Health Group).
  • Once we have more information to share about the season ahead, we will be holding a parent meeting. We encourage all parents to attend this informal, yet important meeting.
  • For each of the upcoming sessions, please have your players bring appropriate footwear (running shoes or indoor soccer shoes for indoor sessions at school gyms and BMO, cleats for outdoor), a soccer ball, and a water bottle. Be ready to go 10 minutes ahead of time – we need to make the most of our allotted time.
  • Please mark your attendance in the TeamsPages app. We have 29(!) girls and the coaches need to plan the practice/activity sessions accordingly.

Questions? Please email us at oakridge2012girls@gmail.com.

Thank you, and we look forward to seeing everyone soon.

Your coaches,
Jessie, Steph, Ricky, & Chris

Winter Wrap-up and Welcome to our Newcomers

Posted by Head Coach at Mar 17, 2024 4:04PM PDT

Hello parents,

Aside from one last fitness session this upcoming week, that is a wrap for the Winter season. Thanks to all of you for getting your girls to our activities over the past few months.

I would also like to welcome our newcomers to the Oakridge Flames! Our new players’ families have been added to these emails (and if you’re in touch with one another and anyone hasn’t received a message, please have them reach out to oakridge2012girls@gmail.com and we’ll get them sorted out). Please also download the TeamsPages app to your mobile device – we use this platform regularly to send updates and attendance.

I’ll keep this short for now as there will be more information to share in the coming weeks. We will be taking the next 3 weeks off, but please plan to attend practices on Saturday, April 6 and Saturday April 13 at 1:30pm at Byron Summerset Public School. Be sure to come with your gear (shoes, shin pads, ball, water), and a great attitude.

Thank you, and we look forward to seeing everyone soon.

Your coaches,
Steph, Jessie, Ricky, & Chris
