If the dates for Socials have been established, list them in this reminder. One week before (if it’s several weeks ahead, the coaches are apt to forget—it isn’t a primary concern in their scheme of things) the first Pre-match Social inform/remind the staff of the series of Socials for the season, and note that the first one is a week subsequent to your reminder. Provide the time of suggested presence for the talk. 1-2 days before the Social, email them for confirmation that a Coach will be attending; and (4) The day of the social, bring portable sound system, make sure caterer is on time and set up. Greet guests, introduce the coach. Take any leftover sandwiches to be donated to local shelter. Requires approximately a day for planning and executing the contracts in mid-to late October and several hours before and during each of three pre-match socials each year.
