Fall Softball Update
*******************************************************
We will be holding off-season softball conditioning beginning next Tuesday 9/20 at 2 pm - 3:30 pm. We will meet Tuesdays and Thursdays for the rest of the month of Sept and Oct.
If you are in 5th period PE, now, you will be transferred to softball and will not go to regular PE. If you have no PE and can come - its expected you attend. This is not optional
This is for ALL returning returning players that are not in a Fall sport or school activity (band,etc)
This is for ALL new players that are not in Fall sport or school activity (band,etc) who came to summer camp or will be trying out in the program.
If you have an academic class during 5th and can not change, do not worry until after you make a team and then your schedule will change at semester for a 5th period PE or 0.
Tryouts for all new players and returning JV players will be Oct 19th, 20th and Oct 21 (makeup). If you attended summer camp, you only need to go to one of the days listed. Tryouts will be after school (300 pm) on all three days. Softball conditioning will not impact tryouts if you cant make conditioning due to a sport or academics, therefore, you will not get you cut at tryouts due to absence. Being available and not coming to conditioning, will impact your chances.
If you are in off season softball class and make the team, you will stay with softball for the rest of the year. If you are in the softball class and do not make a team, you will be returned to regular PE.
If you can not make any tryout days due to an off season sport/activity, please reach me and we will make arrangements. I need to know before the 19th.
If I don't hear from you by tryouts and you don't show, I will assume you do not want to play and will be dropped from consideration. If you are a returning JV player and want to talk about 2012 and your status, I will more than happy to speak to each of you.
We will post players in the program on Oct 22nd (but not actual teams) and will have a general parent meeting on Oct 26 at the school (time and location TBD).
Beginning in Nov. we will have field practice once a week with conditioning and Fall varsity games at the sports complex - Rosters will be communicated prior to those games.
We will keep all players together in Nov-Dec. and will split teams into JV and Varsity in Jan.
In Winter, we will have games for both JV and varsity at HBHS
If you are in a winter sport, you will be released from softball and come back once your season is over.
Any questions, please don't hesitate to reach me.
Thank you and looking forward to a new exciting softball year at HBHS (with a new campus softball complex)
