Junior Varsity

Team Policies

1. Plan ahead to be flexible.  Always be prepared with sneakers and cleats for various surfaces and field conditions.  Dress in layers for practices and games to help be prepared for changes in temperatures.

2. Attending practice is important.  Any player that misses a practice the day prior to a game at minimum will not start in that game.

3. Players are expected to be the ones who communicate with their coach.  Please be sure to communicate any absences from practices in advance.

4. All JV players must ball girl for at least one home Varsity game.  

4. Players may be picked up from away games, but must be signed out with Coach Bradley before leaving.  A written note, text, or e-mail is needed in advance for an athlete to leave an away game with an adult who is not their parent/guardian.

5. Out of respect for time with family, please no texts or calls to coach after 7:00pm and on weekends.  I will respect this time with your families as well.

You'll need the following equipment for games:

    - cleats

    - shin guards

    - black shorts (available to borrow from the school if needed)

IMPORTANT UPCOMING DATES

Team pictures are scheduled for Thursday, March 23rd.

The athletic participation fee is due no later than March 24th.  

MEALS FOR AWAY GAMES

Last year we ordered sandwich boxes from Wawa for a pre/post game meal for our away games.  Although this is optional, I highly recommend it as away games tend to be long days for the athletes and this is a great opportunity to make sure they do not go too long without food.  I will be sending out a Remind this weekend to vote on which meal plan, if any, we would like to do as a team.  Order forms will be sent home next week.   

COMMUNICATION

Communication is essential to success.  All athletes should be signed up for Remind.  Parents are welcome and encouraged to sign up as well.  To receive the most up-to-date information throughout the season, text ‘@brutongs’ to 81010 or (703)940-1931.  You can opt-out at any time by replying ‘unsubscribe @brutongs’.
