TEAM USA - Week One Update (07/14/2006)

Off to New Zealand
BLOG by Trevor McGuinness

The team is packing, light training and preparing for the long flight to New Zealand. Most of the team will fly direct to LAX, and then to Auckland, NZ arriving at 6:45 AM a day later. After clearing customs, the team flies to Palmerston North, an hour flight south, where the tournament will begin. Our "team sponsors" from St. Mary's School will Some easy training is planned for the week followed by a free weekend and the Team plans to tour the countryside and enjoy some needed R&R after training diligently for the past several months.

One last big THANK YOU to all the sponsors of the Team [and those who have waited to donate until we arrive in New Zealand], our families and friends [especially those who hosted players during training sessions in Philly, Greenwich/Rye and Boston], the USSRA [Jeannie, Vijay and Kevin's support has been unwavering] and last but not least, our two dedicated and exhausted coaches - Chris Smith and Preston Quick.
