Welcome All Louisa Futbol Club Members
We are extremely excited to get our practice sessions underway and wanted to ensure that you are fully informed as we head into this Fall Travel Soccer season. This Q&A newsletter provides everyone with an overview of important information about upcoming practices, location changes, summer tournaments, fall travel and even a few suggested COERVER drills for our footballers to work on when at home or away on vacation.
• When does my official team practice begin?
LFC will carry three teams this season; U13-Coed, U18-Girls, U18-Boys. Team practices will begin on Monday June 6th.
Important Notice: Originally we were scheduled to use the LCHS (old track field) but due to unexpected field maintenance; all practice sessions will need to be moved to alternate field locations. Starting June 6th to July 8th we will be holding all practices at Trevilians Elementary School (2035 S Spotswood Trail, Louisa, VA 23093). On July 11th practices will then be moved back to the LCMS soccer field, which is located directly behind the school. We are very sorry for any inconveniences this may cause. Parents, please ensure that all carpools or chauffeurs are aware of the changes with the practice locations.
