2021 Season Information
- Parents can't sit in the bleachers at the games. You'll be able to watch home games by sitting in the parking lot or standing on the sidewalk outside the fence.
- I will check with away game opponents to see if there will be a site from which parents can watch the games.
- All players will be able to dress out and attend home games, but playing time isn't guaranteed. I explained this to the boys at tryouts so they should understand.
- Playing time is earned each week based on performance.
- At the coaches meeting a few weeks ago, I was informed that only 16 players would be able to ride the bus to away games. These spots will be earned at each week.
- Afternoon practices will end by 5:45. Make plans to pick players up by that time.
- Morning practices will begin at 6:30.
