If there is ANY remote interest or chance that your son will return in the fall and wants to play football, it is REQUIRED that they come out for spring practice! The sign up list will go around tomorrow at school. If they are not signed up tomorrow this will be my last email unless you contact me. Here are the high notes from our meeting last night:
Player fee- $150
Players can sell field signs $150 (renewal)/$300 (new) to cover that fee.
The Middle Tennessee Flag Football Tournament (fundraiser) will be Saturday May 3rd & we need Refs, score keepers, concession workers.

Each player gets 2 weeks/6 workouts to miss for whatever reason they choose with no accountability reps.
After those two weeks, FOOTBALL/School Sports Related camps/family emergencies are excused and don’t come out of the two weeks or make for accountability reps. After that 4 accountability reps for excused (VBS, Mission Trips, Scouts, Community Service, Other Sporting Events) & 8 accountability reps for unexcused (just didn’t come, being lazy) which will be made up upon arrival back at workouts (at increments of 8 so not to overwhelm).
There are 9 weeks of workouts. 7 weeks outside the two weeks that are designated as off weeks. THREE WEEKS (9 workouts) of attendance are REQUIRED for participation in the FALL. New students in the fall are exempt.
Provided workout clothes REQUIRED!

The kids will be placed on a clean-up schedule to keep the field house clean throughout the season.
