Bear River

The Battle for the Golden Spike is Friday at 7pm at Bear River
   Freshmen play on Thursday at 6pm at Bear River
   JV (this is a Sophomore/Junior team) play on Thursday at 4pm at Bear River

CoachG: This week our theme was E+R=O, Event + Response = Outcome.  We can't always control the event but we have total control over our response.  The focus was on the techniques necessary to keep our responses disciplined, such as press pause, shake it off, step up, adapt and adjust.  As we work the process there are some that are better at it than others but all are working on it and improving.

Endowment Week

Layton Lancers
This week the Varsity travels to Layton on Friday to play at 7pm.
  there are no sophomore nor JV games this week.
  There is a Freshmen game on Saturday at Alta high school at 10am.

Mom's night
Wednesday at 6pm is our annual Mom's night.  Meet on grass field just south of football field. Come prepared to learn a little football and have some fun with your son.

Notes:
Layton is going through construction also this summer as they are getting a new track and turf field.
Layton High is located at 440 Wasatch Dr. Layton, Utah (field is just south of school)
Alta High is located at 11055 S 1000 E Sandy, Utah (field is just south and east of school)

*Endowment
  The Endowment game was created to raise money to eventually fund the UHSAA and pay insurances for athletic events.  Everyone pays to get in, even the home team students, and the money goes to the state endowment.

CoachG: This was a great week, which began with positive practices and an awesome Mom's Night.  It culminated with a couple of great games.  The varsity played with great energy on Friday at Layton and the Freshman continued that on Saturday morning at Alta.  Our theme this week was Discipline.  We focused on the study, learn and train definition of discipline.  Discipline is an ongoing personal choice of self improvement through study and training.  The rewards of those choices were evident on Friday night.


Purple and White

Thank You! Thank You!
  To all those who helped us move our Purple and White to Watkins Park, including those from Brigham City and Brigham City Rec.  Especially the Parents group that moved everything from high school to be able to feed the boys.  Also, thanks to our trainer and to our announcer.

The games.
  It was a great start to football season by "practicing" a game.  It is important for the boys to put on game jerseys and play in front of a crowd, with all the extra nerves and energy that is created.
 All the teams have a lot of work to do but overall it was a successful Purple and White.  All players had an opportunity to show the skills that they have been working on for the past few weeks.  It was a spirited workout.  The defense played with energy and ran well to the ball and will need to continue to work to improve conditioning.  The offense had streaks of success but need to continue to work to improve execution.

Pictures.
  There were some great photographers there taking amazing pictures.  They can be seen on the football facebook page.
