Parents often have a lot of questions about their children's sports teams. We understand how difficult it can be to juggle all of your family's obligations. With that in mind, we have a tentative plan for the upcoming season. We will be starting practices and tryouts the week before Thanksgiving and the season will likely run until the middle or end of March. We are still in the process of determining how many teams we will have, so we cannot yet give you a full schedule. We are so thankful for all of the coaches who have offered their time and energy to help out. We couldn't make this season happen without them. If you are interested in volunteering as a coach, please reach out to us. We want to make sure that parents have all the information they need to help their children get the most out of the upcoming sports season. We hope that this framework will help you plan around all of your family's other obligations. We look forward to a fun and successful season!
