*Reminder*
Football practice is officially starting today! We will start at 4:00 p.m., on the football field. Players need to be at the school by 3:45 to get helmets, cleats and mouth pieces. Players CANNOT practice unless I have their physical, PHYSICALLY in my hands. If you do not have a physical completed by 3:45 today, you are still required to be at practice, supporting your teammates and learning. Not having a physical is NOT a free pass to skip practice.
After practice, at 6:30 in the band room, we are having our Football Rules and Expectations meeting that parents/guardians, and players, NEED to attend! Please be present in order to go through the rule book and sign it and ask any questions you may have about practices, games, the season, or the program in general.
Coach Hudnall
Reminder, all classified staff will start work on Wednesday, August 14th, at 7:45. We will meet in the band room to start.
See you then!
Football Parents and Players,
The time has finally arrived! We are starting practice TUESDAY, AUGUST 13th at 4:00 P.M. This is MANDATORY! The season is starting and you need to be there; dressed in shorts, t-shirts, cleats, and helmets. There will be a MANDATORY parent/guardian and players meeting following practice at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday night, August 13th, in the band room to discuss football rules, guidelines, and expectations. You will all receive a rules booklet and parents/guardians will need to sign these after we go through them.
Also, PHYSICALS NEED TO BE COMPLETED BY TUESDAY! You need these done before you are allowed to practice. That gives you an entire day Monday to get them done, so get them done. Each day a physical or rule booklet is not turned in - signed by parents/guardians - equals extra conditioning for that player starting August 14th. Support them and be at the meeting!
Football season is here, LET'S GO!!!!
Coach Hudnall
Volleyball practice will be starting August 14th at 4:00. There will be a parent meeting following practice at 6:00. Please make sure you have your physicals done. You may not practice without it. See you on the 14th!
