Good morning everyone,
Our first game is upon us 💜💛

A friendly reminder for our returning players and a new reminder for our new players..

Please adhere to the time the coaches set for arrival.. it's to make sure everyone is there to warm up, but most importantly.. it's to make sure the players are checked in before each game.

Check in is done by Michelle Dungee or Coach Thomas.. with the help of a team mom.. it's always at halftime of the game.. if a player misses checkin.. we have to track the other team Metro rep to check the late player in.. if a player arrives during their scheduled game prior to halftime, they can play.. if they arrive after halftime.. they will not be able to play that game.

Any questions: please reach out 💜💛

6u Check-in 8:30am game time 9am
8u check-in halftime of 6u game, game time 10am
10u check-in halftime of 8u game, game time 1130am
12u check-in halftime of 10u game, game time 1pm
