Good evening Rams:

The link for spirit wear will also be forthcoming as well as the due date for the fundraising forms. Reminder team pictures, Impact Testing and parent meeting are all of 2/28.

Coach Kevin--

Looks like the weather will hold out. Practice will be on the field. Please bring all your gear and school stuff up to the field. We will need to untarp first, so please don't put your cleats on until after the tarp is done. We will retarp at the end of practice.

Hello Rams:

We hope everyone is excited for the official start of the spring sports season with tryouts!

Given the field conditions based on the snow from yesterday, we are currently planning to have day #1 of tryouts in the Aux Gym promptly at 4:15 tomorrow. For each day, please arrive 15 minutes early and make sure you have ALL of your equipment and are dressed appropriately for the chance of either being indoors or outdoors. This includes having both turf shoes/sneakers as well as cleats. If we go outside on the turf, no cleats are allowed. Should the field be dry enough, cleats are preferred. Again our plan is to be in the Aux Gym tomorrow, but please be flexible.

Mr. Oblas and/or Mr. Weeren will be at tryouts tomorrow to confirm ALL paperwork is complete and on file. If you have paperwork to complete, please make sure to complete the online portion and bring the VHSL Physical Form complete tomorrow. All required paperwork MUST be in the Athletic Office before you are allowed to participate.

We look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow to start the tryout season. Bring any and all questions that you may have to tryouts tomorrow and we can cover then.

Go Rams!

For the week of 12/11, Riverside Softball has 2 upcoming events.

1) Tuesday, 12/12 @ 6:45am is the last weight room for session #1. Anyone interested in joining session #2 which starts on 1/9, please let us know this week. This will be a shortened 6-week session (Tues/Thurs) leading up to tryouts.

2) Thursday, 12/14 @ 8:15pm will be our next off-season indoor skills workout. Please arrive at 8pm to get all of the equipment setup. We will conclude at 9:45pm. Dress appropriately and bring all of your equipment.

Should you have any questions, please reach out to the coaching staff. We look forward to seeing you.

Go Rams!!!

Rams:

Good afternoon. As a reminder and follow up to previous communications, we will be conducting indoor winter workouts, the first of which is tomorrow (12/5) evening from 7-9pm. All offensive and defensive workouts will take place in the Aux Gym. Right now, we have only 5 scheduled as there are limited available slots in either gym. Some winter sports have moved to after school and evening practices rather than mornings creating an extremely tight schedule. We will look to add additional slots if and when they become available. Please keep up-to-date with the calendar on the Varsity Softball team files page on RiversideRams.net.

Also, great work in the weight room this first session, therefore, we will be holding a second weight room/conditioning session for 6 short weeks starting on Tuesday, 1/9. We will go Tuesdays/Thursdays from 6:45-8am just like the first session. Please let us know if you are interested in joining this last session prior to tryouts.

Looking forward to seeing everyone interested in the softball program.

Bring all of your gear & see you tomorrow.

***REMINDER***ALL VHSL PAPERWORK & PHYSICAL MUST BE COMPLETE AND TURNED INTO THE ATHLETIC OFFICE IN ORDER TO PARTICIPATE.

Hello Rams:

We hope everyone is ready for the Thanksgiving break, nothing better than family, football and turkey, except maybe pumpkin pie!

We wanted to update everyone with some schedule notes.

First, for those that are working in the weight room and conditioning this session, the balance of the dates that round out session #1 are as follows:

11/21, 11/28, 11/30, 12/5, 12/7, 12/14 all 6:45-8am

We will be taking a head count as to who is interested in a shortened session #2 that would only go 6 weeks ending prior to tryouts. Please let us know if you are interested.

We will be conducting indoor winter workouts on the following dates & times. All workouts will take place in the Aux Gym. Right now, we have only 5 scheduled as there are limited available slots in either gym. Some winter sports have moved to after school and evening practices rather than mornings creating an extremely tight schedule. We will look to add additional slots if and when they become available. Please keep up-to-date with the calendar on the Varsity Softball team files page on RiversideRams.net.

12/5 – 7-9pm
12/14 – 8:15-9:45pm
1/11 – 7-9pm
2/2 – 8:15-9:45pm
2/9 – 6:15-8:15pm

For each of these workouts, players should arrive dressed in athletic attire at least 15 minutes ahead of the scheduled time to assist with the team equipment. Players are to bring all of their softball equipment as we will hit, throw and field as well as pitchers & catchers will work bullpens. Sneakers/turf shoes only in the gym. Due to the stacked schedule, we will use our time wisely and efficiently therefore we will start and end on time. If you are being picked up you can count on a 5-10 minute window once we finish. The Aux Gym is limited on space and balls will be flying everywhere, therefore, these are closed practices with no spectators.

We are looking forward to getting this work in leading up to tryouts starting on 2/19.

See everyone soon!
Go Rams!!!

Rams:

Good morning. A quick reminder that there is a Green Day practice on the field tonight from 7-9pm.

Hello Rams!

Riverside Softball has a busy week ahead so please mark your schedules accordingly.

First, for those who are participating in the Tuesday and Thursday morning weight room workouts, GREAT JOB pushing yourselves. Keep it up and you will see results for sure. Regarding the schedule, the start time has CHANGED slightly to make sure that you get the most out of the facility. Start time for ALL morning workouts is now 6:45am. This is to keep the appropriate numbers in the weight room and avoid a mass congestion as the boys lacrosse team is starting at 7:45am. We also have a lot of students wanting to attend "before school" activities (DECA, Varsity Club, Key Club, see teachers, etc.). This will enable everyone to get ready in a timely manner and get to their meetings.

Next, we will have on-field practice on Wednesday, 10/4 at 7-9pm. Those who have completed and submitted ALL athletic paperwork are invited to participate. If you have questions about your eligibility, please see someone in the Athletic Office. Hope to see everyone on the field Wednesday night!

Additionally, on the evening of 10/4 @ 6:30pm, the Softball Program will be participating along with other Riverside Athletic Programs in the annual Mattress Sale informational meeting (in the Main Gym). Parents, if you could attend on behalf of the players to get the information that would be great as we have practice that same evening. The sale itself will be held on October 15, 2017. As you may know, the Softball Program has quite a wish list of items that it would love to have to grow the facility and program. This event is one way to help build the necessary funds to allow us to hit those goals. If you feel like there is an area where you could assist and/or would like additional information on what the Softball Program is looking to add to the program (bullpen, cage, storage, lockers, pitching machine...just to name a few), please do not hesitate to ask. We are always looking for assistance.

Thanks and we are looking forward to seeing everyone in the weight room and on the field next week.

Go RAMS!!!

All:

Due to a schedule conflict, we will be cancelling on-field practice for the evening of 9/26. We will be rescheduling. The remainder of the practice schedule is still on and updated on the softball Google calendar.

Weight room is on as scheduled for Tuesday and Thursday this week at 7am.

Thanks & Go Rams!!!

Good morning Rams:

Reminder that tonight will be an on-field green day practice at 7pm. Please arrive on time and with water and your full gear. Also, you MUST have your paperwork completed and submitted to the athletic department in order to participate. If you have any questions about your eligibility, please check with the athletic office ASAP.

Check the Team Page on riversiderams.net for the remainder of the schedule and other news.

See you tonight!

REMINDER: There will be an interest meeting August 30th at 7pm in Health Classroom #1807 to discuss off-season training, fall practices, winter workouts, and gauge overall interest. Please contact one of the coaching staff if you are unable to attend. We look forward to seeing everyone! Go RAMS!!!

Just a reminder that softball will have an out of season practice this Wednesday, July 19th from 4-7 on the field. In order to participate, all paperwork must be completed (all forms aside from the physical are submitted online), and the physical must be turned into the Athletic Department. Coaches will NOT be accepting paperwork at the field prior to practice, so please make sure to get that taken care of ahead of time. We hope to get an idea of whether or not a JV team is going to be feasible this year, so anyone interested in softball that cannot attend the practice should email Coach Ingersoll (ingersollrhssball@gmail.com) to indicate interest for a headcount. See you on the field!
