The final day of the GLS Summer Camps were the playoffs. We got to the fields early to set up the goals, line the fields and hoist nets, to give the kids a very professional feel to their final day. There were alot of parents coming so we set up a concessions stand and with every $5 purchase, a family pass was given to the Erie Admirals upcoming playoff game which was dubbed Fan Appreciation Day. Anyone wearing an Erie Admirals shirt could get in for free with a paying adult. We brought in referees for the final day so we would not have to worry about making those decisions whilst coaching. The whole day was an enormous success, with both my 10 year old boys and my 14 year mixed teams making the finals, but only my younger group won. 
After the games had finished we held a trophy ceremony for MVP of the Final, Coach's Players and Player of the Year. these trophies were given out as an incentive to come back next year, as the groups generally stay together throughout the years.
