October 2019 Dear ESDAA Tournament Participants: On behalf of New York School for the Deaf, welcome to Fanwood! We are honored to have you as our guests, and to support the 5th Annual ESDAA Soccer Tournament. At Fanwood, we share ESDAA’s mission to provide a challenging tournament centered on good sportsmanship, ethical behavior, and integrity. Most importantly, win or lose, we show respect for each other and leave the field, and court, as friends. This is an extra exciting weekend for us, as we are also celebrating Homecoming. Please be sure to watch the Homecoming volleyball game on Saturday, October 19, 2019. The Fanwood Tornadoes compete against the Delaware School for the Deaf Blue Hawks at 11:30 AM. Special thanks goes to the Coaches, Assistant Coaches, and all other supporting staff members, for the countless hours they give to make it possible for their students to participate in such an important event. Please enjoy your time at Fanwood, and I look forward to personally meeting many of you during this action-packed weekend. Play hard and have fun! Sincerely, Bradley Porche’, Ed.D. Superintendent New York School for the Deaf 3|
