For games and scrimmages:
• Arrive at least 30 minutes early.
• Players should be in their uniforms, shirts tucked in, shin guards underneath socks pulled to knees, with cleats tied.
• Always bring both uniforms in case there is a color change at game time.
• If you know you can’t make a game, please let the manager and coaches know as soon as possible.
For practices:
• Bring a lot of water, shinguards, and a size 4 ball with your name on it.
