Moms' Breakfast and Football 101 Class for Moms

Hello Mothers,

The moms' breakfast will be this weekend at 8 am in the high school cafeteria. Following breakfast, the coaches will be doing a Football 101 class for 1 hour. Each coach will present on a different topic lasting about 5-7 minutes. We do this in hopes of engaging the mothers in our sport. Moms are the foundation in most families and often the one most taken for granted. This is the football program's way of saying thanks. I hope to see all of you there.

Football Camp

We began camp last night and had a good session. We need to increase numbers and I think part of that is due to legion baseball, other summer camps, and the freshmen not understanding that they need to be there. If you see anyone interested in playing football, please communicate to them that camp is this week from 5-8 pm.

Congrats to Wildcat Players!

Dalton "Country" Chester has signed his letter of intent to play football for the University of Central Methodist next season. Richard Love signed his letter of intent to wrestle at the University of Central Missouri. Congratulations to both of these outstanding young men and on their accomplishments.

Congrats to Cody Holland for placing 2nd in the state in both the shot put and the discus. He broke both school records in each event and had a tremendous season. Good luck to him at Pitt State next year as a footballer and trackster.

Xavier Morrison, Nick Morrison, and Cody Holland all participated on June 5 in the Grin Iron All-Star game at Plaster Stadium on the campus of Missouri State. All there played extremely well and represented Neosho very well. Nick won the defensive MVP award. Congrats to all three.

Summer School and Shoe Order

All football players grades 9-12 need to enroll in summer school weights. The first block begins at 6:30 am and all experienced players need to enroll in this class. The second begins at 8:00 am and all incoming freshmen, new players, and any 7th and 8th graders that are interested should enroll in this class. The summer class is critical to starting the season off on the right note. The coaching staff will be there to work with players and to help develop them for their future as a Wildcat!

Shoe order sheets will be coming home this week and need to be returned no later than May 22. Payment can be made when the gear arrives or at the time of order. We want to see everyone in the team shoe this season. Adidas is the brand of choice this year. Sheets can be dropped off at the high school office or mailed to Coach Flannigan at 511 Neosho Blvd.

Midnight Madness

Check out the video from Midnight Madness; lots of good team building and trust activities.

Cody Holland was selected as the male Scholar-Athlete to represent Neosho by St. John's Sports Care and KODE TV. He will attend a special recognition banquet and be filmed in a cameo for a TV special. Good Job Cody and way to represent Neosho Football!
