BEING A PART OF THE TEAM 
  • Coming to open gyms DOES NOT GUARANTEE you make the team.
  • Behavior—You no longer simply represent yourself; you represent your teammates, the coaches, the middle schools, and the school district. Your behavior needs to be above normal expectations. Your behavior should be as if you are already on the team. There will be a 3-strike system for behavior before you are asked not to return to open gyms and will not be able to try out for the team.
  • Groveport Madison Schools has a Random Drug Testing program for all grades 7-12 extracurricular participants. Your child may be randomly drug tested throughout the school year.

  • Socks – the only acceptable color is black. For games, the socks must match.  
DISCIPLINE
  • Each discipline issue will be handled by the coach on an individual basis. 
PARENTS: 
  • Parents, if you have a concern or question, please set an appointment with the coach. Please do not approach the coach during or after a game.  
  • We need parents to volunteer to work the concession stand.
  • Please become active in the booster club.  
  • We are looking for someone to volunteer as a team parent for each team.
