TEAMSNAP ATTENDANCE:
Updating your practice and game attendance weekly is mandatory. We ask that your attendance for the week’s practices are updated by Sunday evening and games by Tuesday evening. Games dates/locations for the full season are now available in TeamSnap – times will follow as each game approaches.
WEATHER ALERTS:
Looks like we may be in for some interesting weather this week. We try our best to call practices by noon if they need to be cancelled due to hazardous road conditions, but in general, we will plan on practicing in cold/snow/rain if the roads and fields aren’t an issue. Stay tuned to TeamSnap for those updates!
SPRING BREAK GAMES:
We are scheduled for games the first weekend of Spring Break (4/1) and some teams will have multiple divisional games that day, so attendance will be important. We will not have official practices over Spring Break or games the weekend of 4/8.
LAST CALL FOR SHOOTER SHIRT SPONSORS:
We are taking Shooter Shirt sponsorships through Monday and have a few spaces left to fill. Details here: https://bhamwarriorslax.com/inside-warriors-lax/sponsors
LAST CALL TO ORDER A 2023 SHOOTER SHIRT:
Please place your order by 9pm on Tuesday, 2/21. Orders placed after that time will not be accepted: https://www.shopadvantagesports.com/warriors-lacrosse/
GET READY FOR THE JAMBOREE:
We sent an email over the weekend with Jamboree details. Each team will be playing two games. Please make sure you’ve updated your attendance in TeamSnap for EACH GAME. We’re still looking for a 3/4 family to take the team tents down and a 7/8 family to bring them back. Thanks!
JOIN US FOR THE FEBRUARY BOARD MEETING:
Thanks to those of you who reached out about open board positions and volunteer spots! If you’re interested in learning more about the board or open positions, please come to our February Board Meeting – Wednesday, 2/22 at 6:30pm. We’ll be meeting in the party room at Buffalo Wild Wings. There are still many positions we need to fill this year for a successful transition and we appreciate your consideration!
GAME VOLUNTEER ASSIGNMENTS NOW IN TEAMSNAP:
Each game now has volunteer assignments open in TeamSnap. We encourage you to jump in to grab the assignments you’d like for the season. Open assignments for the full season will be filled at random on Thursday, 2/23 and you will be responsible for finding a replacement if you can’t fulfill the assignment.
To find the volunteer assignments in the TeamSnap app, go to SCHEDULE > Click on the Game Date > Go to ASSIGNMENTS at the top of the screen > Add your player’s name to fill the spot. Experience is not needed for any of these assignments – experienced parents will help you learn the ropes!
THREE RIVERS TOURNAMENT:
3/4, 5/6 + 7/8 teams, we are registered for the Three Rivers Tournament in the Tri-Cities again this year! We need your firm availability by 3/1 in TeamSnap (please mark for both days!) and will have hotel information available this week.
COVID PROTOCOLS:
If your player tests positive for COVID during the season, please reach us via email as soon as possible so we can help determine when they can return to play based on current guidelines and reach teammates, as needed. If your player is experiencing COVID-related symptoms of any kind, please keep them home from practices and games. Thank you!
As always, feel free to reach us by email (bhamwarriors@gmail.com) or in TeamSnap if you have any questions or need anything! Go, Warriors!
