A notice from Coach Tim
To our Players and their Parents,
Together we are experiencing unprecedented times, and the COVID-19 situation is changing rapidly every day. As we navigate these uncharted waters as a community, the health of our players and their families and our coaches is our #1 priority.
On behalf of the NYC Lions, I want you to know that first and foremost, we are thinking of you and your families’ well-being. Taking care of yourselves, and each other is what is most important right now.
Out of an abundance of caution, all practice is canceled until further notice.
We will keep you informed and let you know when we’re ready to start our program.
We want to do everything we can to help keep you moving, so we’re posting some in-home-practice tips.
I look forward to welcoming you back soon.
Stay inside! Stay healthy! Stay well!
My Best,
Tim Cavanaugh
