Powderpuff is a longtime Sanderson tradition where girls from each grade level play each other in flag football. 

POWDERPUFF SIGN-UP FORM - CLICK HERE

Team Selection

There can be 25 students on the team for each grade level. If more than 25 students sign up, there will be a random drawing to determine who is on the team. Teams will be announced on Friday, September 19th. Students are selected randomly, and no special exceptions are made. You must be in good standing with Sanderson in regard to attendance, academics, and behavior. You may have no more than 5 absences in a class period, not be failing more than 1 course, and have no recent discipline referrals. 

There will be an optional interest meeting on Wednesday, September 17th at 2:30 in the media center. The meeting should last about 15 minutes. Attending the meeting is optional, but it earns you an extra entry in the drawing to be selected for a team and gives you a chance to hear more information and ask questions. 

If you are selected, you MUST buy a T-Shirt that will be your jersey for the game. Shirts will cost $15 dollars. Even if you end up not participating, if your name is pulled, you are responsible for buying the shirt. Need-based sponsorships are available for shirt purchase; please see Ms. Chiott if you need help purchasing your shirt.

If you are selected, you MUST fill out the permission form before you do any kind of practicing. This form will be turned into your coach.

If you sign up and cancel after practices have started, you will not be eligible to play the following year.

You must attend at least 3 of the 5 practices to play. If you can't attend at least 3 practices, DON'T sign up to play!
