Thank you to everyone for submitting your stories and comments during the season, whether positive or negative, the Council reviews and considers all your comments.
The website was never intended to be a BLOG! If you feel the need to express your thoughts, please consider the following:
- the potential negative impact of what you write
- before posting it, take a moment for sober second thoughts. Often a 24 hour cooling off period provides the appropriate level of reflection.
- The most effective way to resolve issues are to discuss them face to face, or over the telephone with appropriate person(s). You can also contact any member of council by email through the website - go to "Council" on the menu bar.
- Quinndale has a chain of command for dealing with issues; parent to coach, coach to convenor, convenor to council. If you do not get satisfaction, feel free to approach other council members.
Finally, the 2008 season is nearing completion, playoffs always increase everyone's emotions. Please cheer for the players, keep the negative comments to yourself, be good sports, don't make mountains out of mole hills. Remember players, coaches and referees will make mistakes. This in not FIFA, it is meant to be recreational and fun for our children. As adults, whether spectators, coaches or officials, it is our collective responsibility to foster an environment of safety, fun, fair play and participation in sport.
Thank you
Mark Gallagher

I just want to comment on how the past 10 years i've been at Quinndale and how much fun it has been for my family and KIDS... My children have not won every game but the smiles on their faces at the park even the other kids i think tells the story. The friendships they develop from the Park even for a season is wonderful.
I wanted to write this story as i am depressed and discouraged by the negative comments on this page.
LET'S US NOT LOSE FOCUS AND REMEMBER WE DO THIS FOR THE KIDS !!!!!
Thank You Quinndale

 Quinndale Community Fun Day Saturday September 6, 2008 9am-5pm
Would like to remind everyone that a very important date is soon approaching.
Our Championship Fun Day, where everyone feels like a champion! It is a tradition for Quinndale to hold this very special day including our championship games, trophies, Bar-B-Que, penny table, face painting, games and bouncers. As you know the success of quinndale lies on the responsibility of volunteers.
Everyone, including council, coaches, assistants, convenors, candy shack attendants, and 50/50 salespersons are parents who have devoted unselfish time to volunteering many hours. And unlike any other day, Fun Day will require that parents join our team to make this a day the kids will remember.
If you feel you could help with even 1hr. of your time on that day, could you please contact either council or leave your name and phone number at the candy shack and I will get back to you shortly.
Thank you, from the hearts of all our children for making this day the best that it can be!

 Hello everyone,
Just a quick note to please please tell all of your coaches to make the kids pick up their empty or sometimes full water bottles when their game is over.
Mackenzie and I picked up about 15 bottles from both benches on Tuesday night. I know they have been told before so please tell them again.
We have 5 garbage bins to use.
Thank You,
Sharon

 Dear Parents:
With the Soccer Season kicking off this week, the Quinndale Community Council, the Coaches, the Referees and especially the players would like to remind all Parents and spectators of a few simple but very important Code of Conduct requirements.
The City of Hamilton’s Zero Tolerance Policy is in full effect, before, during and after games and practices. One negative incident is one too many. Therefore inappropriate behavior such as physical violence or verbal abuse will not be tolerated at the soccer park and will be dealt with promptly by the Referee and / or the Council. One warning will be issued and if the behavior continues the person or persons will be asked to leave the park.
Spectators – please let the coaches, coach and the referees, ref the games.
Remember the importance of playing soccer is Participation, Learning, Developing, and having Fun!
The following are a few of the important rules and expectations:
All Games are played Rain or Shine. If there is a weather advisory, we recommend proceeding to the soccer field, where the decision to play game or reschedule will be made by the Council. We cancel games due to active weather at the time of the game. If the weather passes the game may proceed.
-
A parent or a guardian must attend all games and practices to ensure the safety of your child, as well as provide disciplinary action if necessary.
-
A Quinndale issued team uniforms must be worn at each game – no substitution of any part of the uniform is allowed. Players will not be allowed to play the game if any part of the uniform or protective equipment is missing, including soccer shoes and shin pads.
-
No child shall wear jewellery of any kind during games and practices. Please remove the jewellery before coming to the park- Safety is our first priority.
-
It is at your coaches’ discretion to cancel practices due to weather issues (i.e. rain or extreme heat).
-
Spectators are asked to watch the games from the North side of the soccer pitch. The South side is reserved for the players and coaches. Exception – from time to time your child may need your assistance during the game. Promptly return to the north side of the field once the issue has been resolved.
-
Please remember that all of the coaches and the volunteers give up endless hours of their time on your child’s behalf. Keep this in mind when communicating with them. Please contact your child’s coach if your child will not be attending a game or a practice.
-
If you have any questions or concerns during the season please do not hesitate to approach a coach or council member.
