Always BRING BOTH to games because, sometimes, opposing teams or referees ask us to switch.
Must be returned to coach at end of season.
The JM boys soccer team has 4 squads: C, B, Junior Varsity (JV) and Varsity.
C Squad is the first level of training for newer, younger, smaller or less experienced players (usually middle schoolers) who need to improve basic soccer skills, learn more about the game and/or "get bigger" (grow so they aren't hurt by larger, older or more physical players).
If players meet expectations for effort/behavior, C-Squad coaches try to sub them in/out of games as equally as possible so everyone gets a chance to play. If a C-Squad player shows marked improvement during the season, B-Squad coaches may ask him to practice or "play up" for 1 or more games.
C & B-Squad players ride the same away-game buses. There are fewer C & B-Squad games, compared to JV & Varsity games, because some schools do not have enough players or coaches to create extra squads.

B and C squad practices are generally held Monday through Friday, 5:30 to 7:00 pm @ Lincolnshire Park.
Exception: no practice on game days
We practice and play in all weather conditions during the season. If it's too hot, we take extra water breaks. If it's too cold, we wear extra layers. If it's too wet, we dry off later. Practices and games are only canceled for tornadoes, lightening and thunder. If/when this happens, coaches post the cancellation on GroupMe.
