Player/Parent meeting and first week of practice.

Meeting:  I was recently informed that there was a conflict with the freshman dance on Monday, so the parent meeting has been moved to 5:00.  We usually meet in the pool area between the gyms, but if it is hot we will try to move somewhere else (perhaps the library, if available).  The meeting will be about 1/2 hour long, and I will give a brief overview of what will be expected of the athletes throughout the season.  I will also have calendars to hand out and we will have extra copies of paperwork for those that need them.  

Doubles:  Practices the first week (Aug. 10-12) will be from 7:30-12:30.  We will have two practices per day with a short break between - athletes will remain at the High School for the duration.  They will need cleats, a mouthpiece (must attach to the helmet and must not be clear) and if possible athletes should wear a white or grey t-shirt with their last name clearly written in black marker on the back.  PE shirts from BJHS would be fine.  We will provide water, of course, but if possible each athlete should bring a small snack with them to eat during the break.

Saturday:  We will issue equipment at 7:30 and practice until 10:30.  The athletes will then be released but must return for our team "blitz" fundraiser at noon (if the time changes I will post again and tell the players).  Usually the fundraiser is done by 3 or 3:30.  More information will follow as I receive details.
