Back to work

After a busy Christmas and New Year, it's back to work in the Aztex office. Phil and I had a quick trip to the UK, saw two Stoke City games, including the bizarre game against West Ham. Let's hope we can get back on track quickly, there's not a huge point difference at our end of the table.

The first ever Aztex camps were a great success - the kids really enjoyed learning from and playing with the Aztex players.The 'goodie pack' included an Aztex stadium scarf which proved an instant hit.

We are still awaiting confirmation from the USL to be able to release this season's schedule - I'm sure you are as frustrated as we are. We even have t-shirts ready to sell but as they have the schedule on the back, we have to wait.

The tryouts in California have attracted over 45 players, including some from Europe and Asia - Adrian and the coaches are looking forward to seeing what's on offer. We also recently invited some players here to Austin that Adrian had either seen play elsewhere or who had been recommended to him. They stayed for the weekend so we were able to have an opportunity to see them train and play together.

We are signing up our Founders members and season tickets are now available for purchase by contacting our office and speaking to John (335 8881 Ext: 7#) They will soon also be available online.
We'll also be starting our search for volunteers for both the Pro and PDL teams - details will be on the website.
