Tryout Dates:

We appreciate your understanding and look forward to seeing everyone at tryouts!

🌧️ Postponed🌧️
New date coming soon!
Due to today’s rainy weather, our New Central PTO Free Swim Day has been postponed. We are working with the pool to find a new date and will share it as soon as it’s confirmed.
Thank you for your understanding. We can’t wait to splash into summer with everyone soon!
Good afternoon everyone,
After discussing the course conditions with the team at Shambolee and taking into account the additional rain in the forecast, we’ve made the difficult decision to postpone this year’s Football Golf Outing.
With the course already very wet, we feel it’s in everyone’s best interest to reschedule rather than risk poor playing conditions or damage to the course.
We are working on securing a new date and will communicate it as soon as it’s finalized.
We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate everyone’s understanding and flexibility. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Coach Hammond.
Thank you, and we look forward to seeing everyone at the rescheduled outing.
