2020 Uniform Deadline Tomorrow 11.7.19

Players, thank you for providing us with your hat sizes.  We had a hard deadline to meet in order to make the embroidery timeline for Spring 2020.  If your navy hat is in good shape no need to buy a new one.  For Spring 2020, navy “HOME hat” is the same as last year.  New for Spring 2020 is a white “AWAY hat.”  Players were canvassed and approved of the concept and design.  HOME and AWAY hats will be used by the V, JV and the C-Team.


For Spring 2020, V and JV will wear grey pants (all grey or grey with navy piping; knicker or long) with our Cougar blue game top and white/dark navy pinstripe pant with a new dark navy top.  Game tops are paid for by the School District and remain the School District's property - players will need to return them at the end of the Spring season.  Players, coaches are responsible for their pants, socks, belts, sleeves, hats, hoodies, etc.  


Again, thank you.  As we discussed, when our online stores (Elite Sports, Victory Athletic) close that’s it, we are out of the apparel, gear business.  Gear was detailed, identified as required and optional in our messaging and reiterated below.


I will be submitting the new AWAY game top order with numbers and adult sizes to the manufacturer tomorrow.  These tops are only for V, JV and as stated above are to be worn with the new white with dark navy pinstripes pants.


I will be transitioning over to pre-season planning, scheduling and coaching.  I have a meeting scheduled with the AD and other winter coaches to discuss facility availability and related challenges.
