PICTURE DAY THURSDAY,SEPTEMBER 29 ON BASEBALL FIELD- order forms went home MONDAy!- Wear Uniform top and black shorts

 

Thanks for checking the website for important announcements and weekly updates to our schedule!  This is the point in the season when we would like to put out a few general reminders for the team and families with respect to expectations.

Expectations:  Support one another, encourage teammates, help at meets by cleaning up all camp, tent up/down assistance, get your Bib numbers or chips FIRST before walking course/concessions or etc.  Also, reminders about etiquette at the meets; no speaker music- all music needs to be earbuds/headphones as also on bus rides.  Language needs to be clean and appropriate.  Official uniform is the jersey/singlet and BLACK shorts.  If you have not invested in either of these you need to.  You may not be allowed to race if not in matching uniforms and worse, another team can have us disqualified for not having matching uniforms.  As black as possible on shorts the logo is acceptable if different than others.  If you are not planning on attending practices or a MEET, Coaches need to know that!
