Good Evening Everyone-
I hope you all are looking forward to the start of the fall season this weekend. I wanted to give everyone an update on uniforms.

First, it's been amazing all the new players joining our club for this season. Welcome to Litchfield Soccer Club - we are excited to have you here!

As far as uniforms go, a number of factors have made this year much harder than most. One blanket note - you will receive an email when the jersey you ordered is ready to be picked up. If you haven't received an email, the jersey is not ready - there is no need to call the store to ask! Sportsmen's is doing everything they can to get these orders as quickly as possible and will contact everyone when the uniforms are ready.

Uniforms were a bigger challenge than usual this year - the Tropical Storm delayed us a bit and we have done everything we can to get all our new players and people who've maybe just found us in the last few weeks hooked up. In addition, as with so many things, COVID has lengthened the time it takes to get our uniforms from our vendor.

The bottom line:

If you ordered from the store that ended in Early August, we are hoping to have your uniform before the last weekend in September. This is not a guarantee - again, you will receive an email when these are ready for pickup.

If you ordered from the "Late" store - we are awaiting an ETA from our vendor for these and I will share that when available.

In the short term, we are looking get as many "loaner" jerseys as possible. In some cases, teams may use pinneys or ask players to wear blue t-shirts. Each coach is working this out with their team.

I want to thank everyone for their patience this season. As with so many things this year, getting fall soccer up and running has been harder than usual - but it has been just great to see the kids out on the field every night. Here's hoping for a great season.

Thanks,
Sam Olmstead
