Football Commissioners
"Hot Wash" Meeting
The Prince George's County Boys & Girls Club will hold its final "Hot Wash" meeting before the start of the 2008 football season on Tuesday, May 20, 2008 at 7 pm in the Sports & Learning Complex, Bluebird Room. The purpose of the meeting is to review the past football season and talk about the good, the bad and the ugly of the program with the intent of improving it for the upcoming season. Representatives from Anne Arundel and Charles County will be there to discuss their football programs and perhaps some joint efforts. We hope everyone who has an interest in the Prince George's County football program will attend. We want to improve our football program and the more comments and suggestions we receive the more we can work to make it better. Some topics to be discussed:
- Weight and age allowances
- Classification of football teams
- Schedules and changes
- Football clinics and Coaches Certification
- Field Allocations
- Background Checks
If you are interested in improving the PGCBGC football program, please attend this meeting. Please notify all coaches of this meeting. Any suggestions you want to bring up and want to place on the agenda should be forwarded to me at calvin.massie@pgparks.com. Thank you for your support and let's make this football season the best ever.
