Welcome to our JV Pac 10 Team #1 web site. This will be your source for all team announcements, news and events. We will also be able to post pictures, schedules and game summaries. If you have a great photo or would like to contribute something just email either my wife Diane or me and we will add it in. We are looking forward to a great year.
One of our major goals is to develop the skills the boys will need to play football and develop skills and attributes that they will use throughout their lives. Dedication and hard work are rewarded on and off the football field. We believe we have a great mixture of young men and look forward to working with them throughout this season.
Football is a means for learning sportmanship, teamwork, self-discipline, friendship, concentration, leadership and many other attributes that will serve the players in life (on and off the field). As coaches we will stress these attributes.
We will be gathering Wednesday November 19th from 5-7 pm at Mr. Beef and Pizza on the Northwest Corner of Arlington Hts. Road and Rand Rd. You can pre-order your meal by calling 847-481-5465. Just tell them the date and Coach Mulroe's Team. In addition, Sam and I will be at Pioneer Park at 9 am on the Friday after Thanksgiving for a Parent v. player football game (rain, shine or even snow--I'll supply the hot chocolate)---don't leave me hanging on this one.
Email me to let me know if you will be attending either or both events. Well the season has come to an end. We played a very tough Elk Grove Team that was undefeated this year. I think we played them well and had an opportunity to pull off the upset. The boys played well and stayed in the game.
We drove the ball o several drives, but just couldn't get it over the goal line. That happens. We saw a lot of great plays from the boys offensively and defensively.
Looking back to the beginning of the year there has been great improvement. Each and every player developed and improved over the season--some first time players really picked-up the game and positions and did a great job. Our returning players continued to hone their skills. Hopefully, all of the boys learned the importance of "team" and made new friends or became better friends. I will look forward to watching our 8th graders move on to HS football and hope to see the rest of the boys return next year.
All the coaches would agree that the boys were a great group--which reflects on the families. Your support of the team was appreciated.
If you have any film or pictures please put them on a CD so that we can compile them for the team.
