So tomorrow, the girls varsity field hockey team has our first playoff game on Sawyer Field @ 2:30 p.m. We would really appreciate if the whole school could come out and support the girls! It would mean so much to us and would help us win BIG!
Find some time in your half-day Wednesday to come out and support your girls on their journey to be New England CHAMPS! Thanks again! Also, good luck to the football team in their Bowl Game! Go get ’em, boys!
Love,
The Field Hockey Girls
P.S. Coach Garrity may make an appearance and she just had Baby G!
Do you want to play in the Student vs. Faculty soccer game on Monday, November 17 from 6-7 p.m.? If so, check with your winter coaches to see if you’ll be available. Please let me know you are in, and what position you would like to play. The deadline to sign up is this Friday at 3:30 p.m.
This is open to any Upper School student and faculty who want to play. Both teams will have five male and five female players on the field at all times, plus a goalie of the coach’s choice.
We’ll be playing two 25-minute halves on Sawyer Field. This game will be played in the spirit of sportsmanship and having community fun. Thanks to Mr. Rutherford and Ms. Chambers for being the commentators.
I’m looking forward to hearing from you soon, and we’ll see you on Sawyer Field. Go Wildcats!
On Friday, November 14, the Afternoon Program will celebrate the Wildcat’s fall season with a dinner from 5:30pm-7:00 p.m.
The Dining Hall will be closed for the evening, so if you are a student without a formal team or in a Special Project, please contact me by Wednesday.
Congratulations on a great fall season! And GOOD LUCK to varsity field hockey and varsity football in the playoffs!

Please use the front two stairwells for the day for access to and egress from the building. In an emergency, the northwest stairwell will be usable. Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for your cooperation.
