FIRST YOUTH PRACTICE A SUCCESS

       Great First Practice for the Empire Youth Teams. A little disorganized. but a lot of fun. Everyone was working hard and learning the game. Also, we started to lay down the foundation for Empire's u18 girls team (The Girl-rillas. Well, they are not yet sure what the name will be). Go Empire!
