What if my child will not be able to make practice?
Attendance at all practices and games is required. Any absence must be reported to the Team Mom or one of the coaches and let them know that he/she will not be attending prior to game/practice. Failure to attend practices will result in less playing time and in some cases, no playing time in the game.

If I cannot be at registration for Football uniforms or Cheerleading uniforms fittings, can I register late?
Due to time constraints of ordering uniforms and other apparel items, we must turn our orders in immediately after registration; therefore there are no guarantees on late registrations.
What will be expected of parents during the season?
Parents are responsible for getting their children to practice and games on time. Parents are requested to volunteer to help especially when we are hosting home games.
When are the schedules released?
After weigh-in, which is normally late August.
