"There are no set positions, at this point," said Senior Mustangs Head Coach Wayne Alexander. "This is our first practice, and the boys did fantastic. I think there were three new members, and everybody looks so capable." Senior Mustangs have their first game September 6 in High River, and the first home game is Friday, September 12.

The Peewee team worked on basic skills.  "It takes all the people on the team working together to be successful as one," said Head Coach Tom Holoboff.  "One or two players get all the glory, but one person doesn't do their job and the play isn't successful. Then we all look bad. So we are going to take the glory as one, and we are going to take the fault as one. All people, acting as one."  Holoboff said to the team before hitting the field.  He is happy to see three new players on the team.  "I expect there will be more, once school starts."  Coach Holoboff is joined by Coach Mark Barber and Coach Jeremy Nelson.  The Peewee team has their first game September 11.
