Registration is $275 and should be done online. I believe most people did that in 2006 without trouble. You can pay by Visa, cheque or INTERAC email transfer. Lapointe can also collect cheques from you if you want.
The club is also charging a $35 fee for try outs, which we will try to refund for players that make the team. If you find these fees extortionate, you are not wrong - but this is pretty much what the club has to pay the OCSL for fields, referees (yes, we do pay them), insurance etc. There are, however, ways that the club can reduce this cost for you.
On other news, we have no longer got the Monday night training sessions at Lester B. Pearson. Which is just as well, because I had 4 people out for the first session last Monday.1) Commit to coaching a youth team or competitive senior team and play for free. You do have to go to coaching clinics for this (which the club pays for). There are several young teams that would benefit from coaching by MP players. You wouldn’t have to be the head coach, just help out once a week.
2) Sell Jane Dennis' famous Grocery Gift cards and earn 5% of dollar sold. James MacMillan has recently bought a house with the kickbacks he has received. Most people buy groceries anyway and this might help knock some cash off the total.
Further news soon.
