Lourdes Boys Basketball Coaches Needed
We are in need of both a boys JV and Varsity basketball coaches for this winter’s season (2009-2010). If you are interested in coaching or helping coach a team, please send me an email detailing your previous playing and coaching experience. The varsity basketball season runs from tryouts at the end of October through the 3rd week in February. The varsity coach is expected to lead the team in the season-ending Shamrock tournament in Charlotte (Feb 19-21) . The JV basketball season is shorter and runs through the first week in February. We are looking for coaches who will have the time and dedication to spend teaching and coaching these teams. Coaches will need to pass the diocesean background check as well as take the safe environment training course.
Please contact me ollad@olls.org if you are interested in coaching boys basketball this year. Thanks.

Lourdes Cross Country Team
I’m happy to announce that Lourdes will be fielding a boys and girls cross country team this fall. I was able to schedule some meets with other schools and will be posting the schedule soon. This team will be open to any middle schoolers (6th, 7th & 8th) who want to participate. Maggie Rougier-Chapman will be coaching the team. Maggie is a current Lourdes parent, competitive triathlon athlete and former cross country runner. We are very fortunate to have her coaching this team. If you are interested in participating and haven’t emailed me yet, please do so. I will forward it to Maggie to add to her distribution list. The first practice will be on Monday, August 17th at 6pm. Feel free to email me if you have any questions or need further information regarding the program.
