Ducks pre-season happenings

Fantastic White Stripes video



South Oakland's first practice, last Sunday at the Greentree Sportsplex was well attended especially for a mid-January workout.

Our next practice will be Feb 8th at 5pm. Then a controlled scrimmage against the Black Sox the following day at 7pm at the Sportsplex.

Seven of us met earlier to discuss fund raising, uniforms for new players, and yellow road
jerseys (T-shirts).




Here's the gist:
  • We have plans for an NABA golf outing sometime in early to mid-May. Ideally this will cost around #120 per foursome, it will be a scramble with half the proceeds going to the league and the Ducks, the other half as prize money.
  • Clear your calander, St. Patrick's Day Party at Guthrie and Gies's.
  • We're going to try to have another event on the South Side at Town Tavern.
  • Visit Adam's South Oakland Ducks Myspace Page, which will be linked to the blog soon.
  • We're still working on how to offer t-shirts at a lower price than the current online store. (although you can save on shipping cost per item if you order in bulk. )
  • The blog will be upgraded by the end of February.
  • We will soon be operating on southoaklandducks.com
  • Everyone do your best to find sponsors.
