Last week saw the start to our season and a pretty cool milestone accomplished by one of our Lady Rangers.
Such a typical week of Texas High School Soccer. Monday was cold and rainy. Tuesday and Wednesday were perfect. Thursday was a little breezy, and Friday was cool and cloudy but no wind. Best part was that the Lady Rangers got out there, competed and got better.

Both teams may leave with Parents after the game. Must be dismissed by Coach Terry and Coach Kleist before departing.
Parents we utilize Game Day Meals Service for our Athletes.
This is not mandatory by any means. It is simply a service provided for our Lady Rangers.
You may utilize this service for any event.
On Game Days - JV will remain in BSH until it is time Depart for the game or head to the field. This means they are with us from 2:00 pm to (Game Times 5:30 pm usually) until about 7:30 pm.
Varsity is dismissed at the end of the school day (3:35 pm) and are encouraged to eat a meal about 4 hours before game time. This provides them enough time to eat, digest, not play on an empty stomach, and have the necessary energy to compete at a high level.

Blue Santa is this Week
Lady Rangers and Parents. This is a Huge Event and makes a massive difference in the lives of families in our community.
This event started 6 years ago and the LISD Girls soccer teams and friends have been able to contribute over 5,000 toys to families at Christmas time.
This event is our Community Service Project and is one of the largest in Leander ISD.
Last year we collected over 850 toys that were donated to the Leander PD.
This year our Goal is to collect over 1,000 toys and donate those collected to the Cedar Park PD this year.
So What's needed and what's the Next Step.
We are asking that each Lady Ranger and EACH person attending the event bring a new and unwrapped toy for Donation.
It does not matter the cost or size of the donation. Every donation is received with Thanks and given with Love.
Whether it's stocking stuffers and .99 cent hot wheel cars or barbie dolls to board games. Any donation is appreciated and welcomed.
When you get to Glenn HS the Donation bins will be set up at both entrances to the fields.
If there is a conflict this Saturday and you will not be able to attend, we would greatly appreciate you bringing your donation to Vista Ridge at any point during the week.

And Finally-
As we come to the conclusion of the Club Soccer Season and the beginning of the High School Season, this is a very odd time for many players. The end of one season usually means allowing the body and mind time to rest and recover. But when it's the start of the season we are in preparation mode for a long grueling season ahead. It's a physically and mentally tough time and we as coaches understand that. Please communicate with your coaches on how you are doing so that we can adjust work loads and management. All we ask is that you communicate with us and be around the team. Days off are not days away. Your presence is good for your teammates. Being on the sideline watching and learning is good practice so as not to fall behind.
The Season is here.
It's a big week with a scrimmage against the defending State Champions and then an opportunity to serve our community through our Blue Santa Toy Drive.
Let's Go Lady Rangers!
