In case you have not heard
We did it....
In just 1 week, the members of this forum have pledged and/or donated the funds to buy uniforms for the Union Ajijic soccer team.
So give yourselves a big pat on the back. Or better still, let the boys do it.
Come out to the Cruz Azul field (revolucion south from carretera, blue doors) at 12:30 on Saturday, and present the uniforms to them.
Stick around and cheer for your team. They are very good and worthy of your support.
I look forward to meeting many of the members, and thank you for making this happen.

Re: In case you have not heard
Let me echo Zen's message. It would mean a lot to the kids to know that the community here cares, so come along if you can. I can't believe this all happened in a week!
Thank you all.
Thank you all.

Re: In case you have not heard
You two guys should get the pat on the back for putting it together and seeing it through...that was the heavy lifting.

Re: In case you have not heard
That's wonderfull news and I haven't even dropped of my donation yet.
Are we collecting enough for spare/replacement shirts and enough to outfit new Team members yet to join?
How about soccer shoes and shin pads? Can anyone estimate the additional cost?
Thanks to all!!

Remember, you DO NOT yell Batter Batter at a soccer game, but fireworks and smoke bombs are allowed
Re: In case you have not heard
Now we need someone to go over to Chapala.Com and challenge them and their members to sponsor another team.
Re: In case you have not heard
So proud of all of us for helping these great kids

Re: In case you have not heard
I have just seen the new uniforms. They look sharp! We ordered 18 and 2 goalkeepers outfits. The company only had 15 of the sizes we wanted, so they owe us three more. Gio is going to pick up the other three next week.

Are you volunteering?
It's a dirty job, but somebody's gotta do it. I nominate TrueBrit. His posting there is what got this started.

Re: In case you have not heard
In case you haven't seen...... there are new photos on Union Ajijic Facebook page of Saturday's match. https://www.facebook.com/#!/groups/unionajijic/466405896766990/?comment_id=466408306766749¬if_t=group_comment
(Can I put links on this board?)
I am also close to getting the preliminary website UnionAjijic.com up and running. I was asked to make video profiles of the eight players going to the try-outs at Torreon for the Santos coaches to preview. The others felt a bit left out so I decided to make video profiles of them all. They are all getting jazzed at seeing their football resumes on-line - I will be putting them on the new website. And it will be a way for everyone to get to know the players better.

Re: In case you have not heard
Thanks TrueBrit. Yes, links are OK. Be sure to post a schedule of games when it is available.
Re: In case you have not heard
The season ended the week before last. Last week's game was a friendly.
Gio said there would be a tournament coming up. I think this means that all the coaches get together and decide a tournament's coming up. Games seem to spring up and there is a definite network among the Mexicans involved with football lakeside - which I am not a part of. But as soon as I find out anything, I will be sure to post them here.
There is some sort of celebration coming up to present the league trophy and individual honours to the team and some of the players. Again, when I know more, I will post here.
