Frequently Asked Questions
What is typical practice time during the season?
-Monday through Thursdays, 4 pm to 6 pm
-According to the school-We are allowed to hold practice for up to three hours. However, based on the student's academic workload, the staff and I feel confident that we can shave a hour off to get the players home at a reasonable time.

Is summer practice mandatory?
Yes and no, based on a general lack of experience in the sport we encourage the player to plan to be here for the majority of the summer sessions. We do understand the need for family time so we give 4th of July week and the last week of July completely off. As long as there is communication and a good honest effort from the player, we do our best to work with each individual need.
Is there practice year-round?
There are many phases throughout the year, however, none are mandatory aside from in-season practices. We try to provide opportunities for the team to continue to live a healthy lifestyle and achieve physical goals that they lay out for themselves. Along the way, we also aim to teach players the meaning of prioritization, planning, and overall life skills.
