Road Trip!!

We are heading to Christopher Newport University in Va. on Sunday October 3rd to watch them play Lynchburg! Game time is 1pm and we will be leaving aprox 7:30 am and returning 8pm. It should be some great hockey and a chance to see the Campus! I can take maybe 3 people with me, Leslie and Monika are going!! I have room for maybe 1 more!

Nicole attended the shot stoppers goalie camp in Maryland. I attended with Nicole for just one day and I learned a ton of good goalie information! The camp is run by John Kovach, and I would highly recommend it to any goalie. here is the link..

Katie, Leah, Erica and Chelsea attended Wesley's Hockey camp in Dover! The girls all loved it and here they are Cheesing it up for the camera! :-)

We had a great turn out at the car wash and bake sale. Girls just baking stuff were Molly, Monika, Jennifer, Casandra, and Leah. The following stingers helped with the car wash: Leslie, Lizzie, Kyrra, Chelsea, Sarah, Claire, Jena, Caroline, Stacey, Nicole, Olivia, and Lori. a special thanks to Lori and Monika's mom for helping with the bake sale and to Claire's dad for helping with the car wash! We took in $46 at the bake sale, and $275 at the Car wash! We do have some expenses to be take out before we get to our true profit! :-) great job girls!

Turn out was a lil sparse this rainy Sunday, but we all had a good time and the food was most excellent!! Thanks to all those who could make it! Look for another yummy time coming up soon! :-)

On August 7th we will be heading to Va. for a 7 vs. 7 Tournament. The games will be on grass and we will play four 25 min. games. Everyone will get a t-shirt! Our Stinger team is:

On Sunday June 20th we cruised up to Towson and played our first Turf tournament! We finished with a 2-2-1 record and 5th in out Pool! The individual game results were:

Game 1: Storm Trooper Tornado wins 1-0

Game 2: Myfha Wins 1-0

Game 3: Stingers over Hymax Lions 2-0

Game 4: Stingers over Mavericks 2-1

Game 5: Hymax jags tie Stingers 0-0

All of the games were really close and well played! Scoring for us were Lindsey Collison and Taryn Neeman. Stinger @ Towson team members were:

Okay girls I know you all haven’t thought about indoor at all yet but we made a decision to purchase new spiffy uniforms and we will need to order them in late August! That also means we must finalize our teams and who is on them by then too! We will be ordering new Warrior Uniforms like we previewed last year. The cost will be aprox $100 and include a skirt, and 2 different shirts, and black socks. You need to begin to raise that money or make your parents aware of the costs. That will be due at the time we order your uniform. As an estimate of cost..... it will cost each player aprox $35 a League and $35 for each tournament we go to, not counting food or lodging. We plan for you to raise this money with our fundraisers from throughout the year or you can just write a check to Delaware Stingers if you want. You must be a member of USFHA to play in tournaments.

That said, we will have a U14 age team, a U16 age Team, and U19 age team. You must be under that age as of January 1, 2005 .

If you haven’t played indoor with us before and you would like to I need your age group and name and all. If you played last year and want to again this year I need to know that too! And what age group you would be in! We play in the Dover League on Sundays, beginning in late December and going to late February. Games are any time from 9am to like 7pm , one game a week. We will play several tournaments too. Last year we played at Pottstown , Ursinus College , Cape , and Striker’s in Md. We will be trying to qualify our teams for Nationals!

The Delaware Stingers played in the "Beach Bash" Field Hockey tournament held this past weekend in Rehoboth. The stingers joined eleven other high school teams from De, Md, and Pa, and finished the tournament with a 2-3-1 record! Stinger members who played were: Lindsey Collison, Amber Vanderwende, Ashley McCarthy, Monika Smith, Nicole Bailey, Olivia Pristavec, Sarah Pritchett, Stacey Willey, Chelsea Collison, Claire Rekitzke, Elizabeth Hernandez, Grier Tumas, Jerylyn Idler, Leah Bowman, Leslie Messick, Liz Perciful, and Molly Desmond.

We forfeited our first game to cape because of some scheduling conflicts. We played Cape 2 our second game and fell 2-0. We were still playing short as only 9 girls played. Our third game of the day was against "Bang" and we won 3-1. Scoring for the Stingers were Molly, Monika, and Olivia. Sunday saw us lose a great game to Lake 2-1 and our score came from Olivia. Our second game saw us go to a 1-1 tie with Warhawks 1. Sarah scored our goal in that game! Our third and final game saw us defeat Warhawks 2 by a score of 2-0. Sarah and Olivia both scoring in the final game! :-)

You girls played Great all weekend! Great job Girls! Thanks to everyone who played!

Kyrra, Lizzie, and Vivian do some raking up and got some mad credit for there work! :-)

U19 Stingers chillin @ Chuck E Cheese's after there last win of the Season @ Dover!!

"I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot & missed. I've failed over & over & over again in my life, & that is why I succeed." ~Michael Jordan #23

U14 Stingers invade Chuck E. Cheese's after their two wins in Dover!! Great games girls!! :-)

"Sport is a metaphor for life. I've learned a lot about myself during the
long hours of practice...I learned you can give 110%, set goals and still
not reach them. I've learned sometimes when the pain is intolerable, you
have to swallow your pride, grit your teeth, silence the tears, and run.
I've learned to stick with it, and keep trying, long after everyone else has
abandoned the cause. I've learned there are no failures, only temporary
setbacks. I've learned that the perfect team often loses, and occasionally
the underdog triumphs. I've learned that teammates have an invisible bond
with each other, a bond that can never be broken, a bond of dedication,
love, and respect."

All Team Members must be members of the Delaware Stingers Field Hockey Club and also Members of the US National Field Hockey Organization.

My good friend and past photo model :-) Carrie Lingo Hooked me with this great National Team pic!! Thanks Carrie!!

"True friends are hard to find, Difficult to leave and Impossible to forget."

The Delaware Stingers now has a tax I D number and a Bank account!! All checks should be made payable to "Delaware Stingers" in the Future! With that said.... We are also looking for sponsors. We have several major purchases to be made:

An actual practice and play field including: land preparation, planting grass, keeping up the field, (including irrigation), bleachers and a second set of Goal cages. (As you may or may not know there is no field available to play on in the Woodbridge school district in the spring or summer. The Woodbridge Jr High team basically practiced in someone's back yard last year during their season!) I am willing to donate land just outside of Bridgeville off of my family farm for the fields to be set on.

We have several ways for you or your business to help support Stingers Field Hockey, Girls Sports, and all the great kids in our area!
