COMMITTEE REPORTS:
Tom congratulated the committee on a well run
tournament. He read a letter that he
received from a coach who has coached in the tournament for many years. In the letter, the coach applauded the
sportsmanship of the U12 Girls Pride coached by Brian Harrison and Tom
McNulty. The coach went so far to say
that he thought that the Pride should receive a team sportsmanship award if
such an award exists. Tom Conway
concurred with the coach and presented a Team Sportsmanship Award plaque to
Brian along with a framed print of the coach’s email. Congratulations to Brian, Tom and the Pride!
