Hello DYS families,
I hope that everyone has been having a great time between soccer seasons. Spring Soccer is right around the corner and let’s all hope that the weather continues to cooperate (no jinx). The DYS annual meeting was in December and we welcomed a few new people to help make the organization even better in 2020 and beyond! Please welcome new members: Carld and Victoria August, Andreas Matern, Adam Young, and Chris Looby as well as all returning members.
The board has been hard at work during the offseason working on website improvements, choosing an app for coaches and parents, setting the schedules, planning upcoming events, making changes to the by-laws (updated and listed on the DYS website), working on new sponsorships, the list goes on…
As I say every year at this time: Thank You VERY much to ALL board members, coaches, asst coaches, sponsors, who 100% VOLUNTEER their time to help make DYS a GREAT program for our children of Dedham. DYS represents more than 900+ players/coaches.
