🌷 Spring Reign starts tomorrow — day-before details!
Hi all,
Tomorrow is the day! Here's everything you need to know heading into the weekend.
⏰ First Things First
Our first game is tomorrow (Saturday). Players should be leaving West Seattle around 7:45 and ready for warmups at 9:15 AM at Field 9. Plan your travel accordingly — Google Maps puts the drive at about 1:20 from West Seattle.
🎒 What to Bring
A few things we forgot to mention before:
🎽Jersey — if your player doesn't have one yet, we'll have an extra on hand
White t-shirt as a backup (in case of jersey issues)
🧦Extra socks! The grass will be wet in the morning and players are encouraged to change socks throughout the day. We recommend 2 extra pairs per day
Here's the full packing list:
Players:
Jersey + white t-shirt backup
Cleats
Extra socks (2+ extra pairs per day — grass will be wet!)
Sunscreen, hat, sunglasses ☀️ (forecast looks great — rain gear likely not needed 🎉)
At least 2 reusable water bottles
Extra snacks if desired beyond tournament/team snacks
Maybe something fun for downtime (cards, etc.)
Parents/Chaperones:
Sun gear ☀️
Rain gear just in case (umbrella)
Chair or blanket to sit on
Any snacks/supplies you signed up for on SignupGenius!
📅 Saturday Schedule
📅 Sunday Schedule
We have 3 games on Saturday. Sunday game times and fields won't be known until Saturday evening — we'll share those once we have them.
🗺️ Field Layout & Parking
We're playing in the NE complex on Fields 9 and 11 on Saturday. Plan to park in the NE area of the complex — here's the pin:
When we get a more specific field map, we’ll post to WhatsAppp
🍊 SignupGenius — A couple of spots still open!
There are still a couple of openings on the snack and supplies signup. Not a big deal if they don't get filled, but if you're able to claim one, it's much appreciated!
☕ Food & Drinks On-Site
Beyond the tournament-provided food and the team snacks we're bringing, there will also be coffee and snack carts available for purchase at the venue. So if you need a morning coffee or your player wants a little something extra, you'll have options on site!
💬 WhatsApp Community
Make sure you're in the team WhatsApp for day-of updates, photo sharing, and coordination. Join link is in the Player Portal.

💛 Consider Supporting DiscNW
Spring Reign costs over $128,000 to run, but registration revenue only covers $121,000 of that. DiscNW uses a sliding scale payment model to make sure every player can participate regardless of financial situation — and donations help bridge the gap. You can read more on page 2 of the Spring Reign program.
See everyone out there tomorrow — let's have an amazing weekend! 🥏
