See the news and information we share with people outside our organization:

Coaches use the GroupMe app to communicate new or changing information. Last-minute updates include weather cancellations, practice/game locations and bus departure/arrival times. 

How to join:

1. Download the GroupMe app on your phone.

2. Open the app and create an account.

3. Click on the GroupMe link, above, to add yourself to our team.

Notes:

These instructions connect you to a group set up for the whole team (200+ current and former players/parents). Messages for ALL players and JV/Varsity players are posted here.

You may be added to a smaller group for C/B players later. If this happens, be sure to watch BOTH groups for information throughout the season.

Please keep your posts positive and informational (no complaining). Concerns or frustrations should be texted to Coach Abdul privately.

We 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.
