Marauder Squads Ready For Weekend Action

Although it will be several more days before the final squads are announced, three Hanover soccer squads will see action this weekend in preparation for the season ahead.  The Varsity and JV squads will host Lebanon tonight at the turf field.  JV is at 5:00, Varsity is at 7:00.  Saturday morning, both teams will head to Keene for a jamboree, playing four games each.  The bus and parent drivers will leave HHS at 6:45.

Directions for drivers:  91 South to Exit 5, and cross the river to Walpole, NH.  South on Rt. 12 to
Keene.  When Rt 12 meets Rt. 101, turn left (East onto 101), and shortly at the traffic circle go left (North, 3/4 way around) onto Winchester.  Turn into the parking lot opposite MacDonald's on Winchester Street, 1/4 mile north of 101.  At the end of the parking lot, players and fans walk over the bridge to the Keene fields.

The first games are at 9:05.  Last game for the JV is 12:30.  Last game for the Varsity is at 1:05.  We'll wait until after the Varsity game to leave together, except perhaps one JV car with Norwich folks to get Roger Danilek on his way north.  There are no concessions.  Everyone should bring their own snacks and lunch for the bus.

The Freshman squad will leave HHS at 10:30 for the Recreation Fields in Bethel.  First game is at 11:50 against Hartford JVs.   Players should being lunch for after the game.  Second game is at 4:00.

Directions:  Rt. 89 North to Exit 3, and take 107 to Bethel.  Go into downtown Bethel, and turn left over the River onto Rt. 12 NORTH.  After the road doglegs right, look for the entrance to the fields on the right, just after Whitcomb High School on the left.  If you want to GPS it, enter Whitcomb High School, 273 Pleasant St, Bethel, VT 05032.  Note, be careful not to turn left onto Rt. 12 South, which also crosses the river.  Go into downtown Bethel before you go left on Rt. 12 North.

Saturday should be fun:  70 HHS players in action all at once.  Players, be sure to honor the game in every way.  Parents, nice and chill on the sidelines, please.  Referees are human and fallible. Don;t be those parents.
