Competitive 10 Pin Bowling

Coaches: Lee Abigail and Rich Domros  Team Manager: Debbie Fickenscher

The Competitive Bowling Team Season began on October 27th. The season is required to begin prior to other winter sport seasons in order to get in enough bowling scores to qualify for state competition. The State Ten Pin Bowling Tournament will be held in early February. Questions about the three bowling seasons can be directed to Debbie          Fickenscher at debbie.fickenshcer@verizon.net.

 

FLOOR HOCKEY 

Coaches: Tim Powers and Hannah Rich

A combination of ice hockey, soccer and demolition derby ...floor hockey is a fun and exciting sport! We encourage all of our SOMO athletes to give it a try. The training schedule for floor hockey has been designed to encourage our high school basketball players to come to floor hockey and then in January when basketball season begins-stay for high school ball practice! Come one, come all and see what a fun sport floor hockey is!

              Contact either Coach Tim with questions: floorhockey@somdmontgomery.org. The Floor Hockey season begins December 2 and continues on Sundays from 12-1:30 at the Barrie School on Layhill Road in Silver Spring, and runs through the first week in February.

Seniors Basketball In the winter sport season, SOMO offers many levels of basketball play and we NEED YOUR HELP TO MAKE ALL OF IT HAPPEN!

             We offer a Juniors Round Robin League, a High School 3v3 League and a Seniors Basketball Program that  includes 3 levels of play: Individual Skills training, 3v3 ( half-court) team play, and 5v5 ( full-court) team play. This year we plan to have 3 5v5 teams, and will form as many 3v3 teams as we have athlete interest in, AND Coach support  for! Our Seniors Basketball athletes commit to training every week on Sundays at the Barrie School beginning in January. Teams will travel to at least one “away tournament” and will participate in our own SOMO County Tournament. Dates and details of competitions will be available as the season begins.

             Skills and Seniors 3v3 teams will practice from 3-4:30 and 5v5 teams will train from 4:30-6. When you sign-up for basketball, please indicate if you have played on a team in the past to help us assess your team placement.  It is important that athletes make a “primary commitment” to one sport (Example: basketball or skiing). Your coaches and your team-mates depend on you to commit to training and competing. In past years, athletes have signed up for both ski programs and for basketball and have not been able to fulfill their obligations to both sports.

      Please check our website and contact Nancy Lloyd with any questions about Seniors basketball. If you are in high school you may wish to consider training in the new high school 3v3 league.

Again, WE NEED COACHES AND VOLUNTEERS TO MAKE IT ALL HAPPEN!
