“I just love working hard. I love being part of a team; I love working toward a common goal." Tom Brady

Greetings Fellow T&C Families & Friends,


It is always a bit sad when a sports season comes to an end, but in the next few weeks most of our spring sports will conclude another season. I hope you and your family had a fun time making new friends, learning, and playing this season. I would like to say a special thank you to all our coaches, team parents, board members, commissioners and other volunteers that make T&C possible. For 50 years T&C has relied on the dedication and commitment of our community volunteers to make this a special place for so many families and kids.


Although the spring season is ending, authorized activities at T&C will continue throughout the summer. Remember to read your newsletters and follow us on social media to keep up to date on summer special events, activities, and camps.


Some of you may be participating in All-Stars and tournament teams starting this month. I thank you for representing T&C and wish you all good luck in this summer’s tournament season.


Fall registration has opened for some sports and we should have all fall registration offerings open and available in the next couple of weeks. As space is limited in some programs, I encourage you to sign up early to secure your child’s place in his or her favorite fall sport.


To celebrate the end of the season, we will again be having our end of the spring season T&C Dell Diamond Night this Saturday, May 18th. This is a fun night to bring the team or family out to the Dell Diamond for a night of baseball and fun. Look for the details in this newsletter as well as on the events page of the website. I hope you can “Come Out And Play With Us”!


Thanks again for being part of our T&C family, I hope you all have a fantastic and safe summer!

SPORTS UPDATE

Congratulations to everyone for a great Spring season. T&C Flag Football finished its End of Season Tournament last week and fall registration is open. T&C Girls Lacrosse and T&C Girls Volleyball also ended another successful season. Best of luck to T&C Softball and T&C Baseball teams competing in Allstar tournaments this summer.


The spring soccer season has drawn to a close. The kids had a blast, and we can't wait to see all the players again in the fall. A big shout out to all our volunteer coaches who help the Recreational program be such a huge success. 

 

The T&C Soccer Academy program had another great season. The introduction of in-house Academy was a great success. Interest in the program continues to grow and as a result we will be expanding the in-house Academy program to include U11-U12 age groups this fall. The T&C Premier program also continues to flourish. Many teams advanced in their Spring Cup competitions, representing T&C Soccer across South Texas. We anticipate adding additional teams next season with tryouts occurring May 28/29th.


This summer T&C Soccer will be offering several Camps and Futsal. The first week of June we will be hosting an Everton FC International Soccer Academy followed by two weeks of T&C Soccer camps. Prior to the start of the fall season, we will also have a Pre-season Camp. For the first six weeks of the summer, we are also offering Summer Futsal on our Futsal courts.


At T&C Sports, we're always interested to hear what we did well, and how we can improve. Your feedback is invaluable to us so please be on the lookout for a spring survey opportunity to be messaged out soon.

Past Events

April 27: Coach Appreciation Day

Saturday, April 27th was Coach Appreciation Day. Thank you for joining us in celebrating our amazing coaches for yet another outstanding season of youth sports. And thank you to all of our board members, staff, commissioners, game-day officials, and maintenance crew for all their hard work this season as well.


We had a blast handing out out free freshly grilled hot dogs (compliments of our Optimist board) along with free lemonade to our coaches.


Congratulations to our 3 coaches who were randomly selected as our Coach Appreciation Day winners. We had SO many amazing coaches nominated. The 3 randomly drawn winners were Coach Brandon Cozart (softball), Katie Loud (lacrosse), and Brandon Gilbert (soccer coach pictured here).

May 6: Charity Golf Tournament

'Help Every Kid Play' Golf Fundraiser A Success!


The Star Ranch Golf Club was the beautiful setting on May 6th for T&C Optimist's 'Help Every Kid Play' golf tournament. It was a great day for golf, and 80 players competed in a friendly scramble tournament to raise funds for T&C's scholarship budget. The proceeds go to supporting families who need financial help to play sports at T&C.  


The golfers had a great time and T&C Optimist raised enough dollars to help a lot of kids over the next several months. Many thanks to all who played and contributed.
