First day: check in at 7 AM ... equipment and on-field test day, along with team meetings and weight lifting test outs.

◊  Players must have an eligibility slip from the athletic office to get equipment and participate.

◊  Regular practice times for the first 2 weeks of practice: 7 AM to 12:45 PM.

Grades 9-12 ... teams of players go out into the community to sell gold cards. This is our most important fundraiser of the year, and players will return to the school around 8:00 PM. Players will be put into selling teams and will be transported in cars driven by senior group leaders. We try to create each team with players from each grade as a way to get to know each other. Parents who have concerns about younger players riding with older players can provide their own transportation for their son if they wish.
