Wellcome New 7th Grade Teams
A quick Break Down
Monday 09/20 we announce Team placement. We will have an A and B team and 4 C teams. Please understand that we have leveled everyone as best as we can and our goal for doing this is to help girls improve in the sport as dividing by skill helps this process.
Games: The first two games are on Tuesdays but we seem to have somewhat of a sporadic schedule for the last half of the season. Scroll down to see the full schedule for dates and locations. A & C teams play opposite locations. If C team is home then the A/B team is away and vice versa. All games start at 4:00, ending times vary.
Volunteer Sign Up: We are in need of items to sell at the concession stands. Please go to the link below and sign up for an item to donate.

What Do I Need to Know?
Practice attire needs to be shorts/leggings, a T-Shirt or Tank-top over a supportive sports bra. All girls need to have a pair of tennis shoes, this is a safety matter along with helping keep our gym floor in good shape. Knee pads are a must and should be washed weekly. Girls will be given a team uniform to be worn on game days. Make sure they are clean and presentable when worn. Girls who do not have their uniform on game day will not play.
Education to Publication
Please make sure you have signed the media release form in IC. You would have done this at checkin, if you do not know for sure you can call the school and ask the school scheduler she would be able to confirm. This year we would really like to photography to document our girls through their journey of the season. I will be using these photos in my digital design classes for students to create collage advertisements for our program, school spirit and to create a school wide family where feels valuable.
Who Plays?
Everyone plays at this level, playing at practice is just as important as getting the practice of performing in games. We are dividing teams based on level, skill and potential, this evens the playing field of game time. Parents, if you are frustrated with any performance do not contact any coach until 24 hours after the game or event in question. We will be happy to talk with you, but will not do so unless you follow this guideline. Not attending practice will effect game time. Students have to be counted present at school the same day they attend practice or games. If they are marked absent for the day they will not be able to attend practice/game held that same day. If you have more questions about school sport rules and guidelines please feel free to read our sports hand book that will help you with any questions.
Flex Ride
We are working with RTD to get students and parents who need Transportation support in after school activities to have access RTD's Flex ride. This Petition will help give RTD an understanding of our needs. https://www.ipetitions.com/petition/flex-ride-for-roxborough You can also email this address if you would like to share a personal story in your petition to have Flex Ride available for commuting students. email: Service.changes@rtd-denver.cocm
