Think "BIG" Green!

Am loving this new website and excited that our "football family" will be more informed and connected! Looking forward to seeing many of you at the spring game!

The BIG Green Chalkboard...

Created a chalkboard just for special notices!

A note from Coach Teevens...

Hello from Hanover!

It is wonderful to know that our parent’s website/blog site is now a reality thanks to the effort, imagination and time put in by Sue Cummings! We hope that a line of communication and flow of information between parents, friends, and families will be enjoyable, helpful and insightful.

From time to time our office will send along dates, calendars, pictures and information that your wonderful sons may (may not!) pass along to you. The true aim of the website/blog is to allow you as parents an opportunity to build relationships that will be rewarding in many ways… Have fun as you embark on Dartmouth Football’s first venture into this area!!!

Nutritional Assistance

We are currently providing protein shakes and protein bars as well as fresh fruit, whole wheat bread and peanut butter for all of our squad members… Our Friends of Football group, of which many of you are involved, is funding this program.

Spring Job Seminar

Following last fall initial “career day” we will have another opportunity for our players to learn about a wide variety of career choices and opportunities that have attracted former Dartmouth Football players. This one day effort allows your sons to learn and inquire about “how, what, why” of professions that may interest them. If any of you would like to join us as presenters please let us know!

That is all for now but we will be in contact again at the end of the quarter. Until then, our squad is making progress. We had a productive winter with those both on and off campus making much needed strength gains.

Spring practice will be critical to help us improve the consistency of our performance at each position. Too often in the past we would “do it right” then “do it incorrectly” – our push this spring is the following:

• Know your assignment
• Execute your responsibility consistently
• Be meticulous in attending to the details of your job
  

Though we have much work to do the effort and attitude of your sons is making a difference and is moving Dartmouth football forward.

Quote of the Week..."Strength"

finally here it is...

Well...finally sent out a mass email letting the football parents know about this blog.

A yahoo group for Dartmouth football parents was also started for posting info and creating a network for the parents. If you want to find out the details for the yahoo group, just email me and I will send you an invite. The yahoo group is only for parents of the Dartmouth football team. There is also a calendar on the yahoo group site to look up important dates.

Some important dates coming up are the Freshman '09 Parents Weekend (April 28th, 29th, 30th) and the Spring Football Game (May 6th). Details from the football office will be sent this week on the spring practices, game and a barbeque.
