Nash Bash Information

We will be meeting on Friday March 12, 2010 at 2:00 p.m. We will be meeting in the Dollar General parking lot behind the Speedway Gas Station. The bus will be leaving promptly at 2:30 p.m. This is were the bus will pick us up. We can't use the school parking lot as a meeting spot and the boys have used this in the past and it has worked very well. The girls are required to ride the bus to and from all events of the weekend including to and from Nashville.

The fields we will be playing at are the Vanderbilt Club Sports Field http://www.vanderbilt.edu/campusrecreation/directions.html I am waiting on an actual address but here is the general map.

There will be four girls in a hotel room assigned by me. Each player must stay in the room they are assigned to. Each player will be assigned to a parent/coach as a chaperone for the weekend. There will be room checks throughout the night as the parents/coaches see fit. As a reminder the Code of Conduct will discussed and followed at all times while in Nashville. If there is any misconduct a parent will be notified at the time of the event and will likely involve removal from the rugby team for the 2010 season. If there is any illegal activity police will be notified at once along with calls to parents as necessary. The club will not tolerate inappropriate behavior of any kind on this trip. The girls have been warned that hazing of any kind is not acceptable and also would be in direct violation of the code of conduct.

The itinerary is posted below, hopefully this won't be changing.  The time does change this weekend. This will affect Sunday and the girls will be reminded on Friday. Brownsburg will always be an hour ahead of Nashville.  

Friday evening and the bus ride is a great time for the girls to get their homework finished. It is okay for players to bring iPods, lap tops, portable DVD players etc., but are reminded that they are responsible for keeping track of the items.

  

This trip will cost each player $40.00 to the club.  This money will cover some of the cost for the bus, hotel, and the following meals: dinner Friday, breakfast Saturday and Sunday, and lunch out at the pitch on Saturday and Sunday.  The player will need additional money for a meal on Saturday night, and possibly extra money for tee shirts, or whatever they want to spend money on.  Also each player must have a signed waiver form from Vanderbilt University.  These will be handed out at practice on Tuesday and Wednesday. I would like to have this collected by Thursday.  

Please give me a call at anytime with questions.  317-496-0236. This is the start of a very big season for us. It is the first time the girls team is traveling as a team and I am very excited to get this going.
