Pre-Season Parent Meeting Set

Interested alumni can contact a member of the
coaching staff for a registration form. Cost is $25
before December 7, and $35 after December 7. This
includes game shirt and all game fees. We would love
to see all our Alumni, fans, and families at this event!

The program has scheduled our annual pre-season
parent meeting for all HS players and their families.
Our annual “Coffee with the Coaches” event is
scheduled for 10:00am on Saturday, November 23 in
the HS cafeteria. Coffee, tea, donuts, and bagels will
be provided free of charge.
It’s imperative that at least one parent of each HS
player attend this meeting. We will cover the
program’s policies and procedures, have sign-ups for
“work-off” opportunities, complete all pre-season
paperwork, and have the chance to purchase program
gear and apparel. There will also be an open varsity
practice afterwards.
