Practice 9-1-09

Wednesday there will practice in full pads from 3:45 till 6:00 pm.

At this point equipment issues will be counted against the player and can seriously affect their seeding in the depth chart and also their status as a member of the UGMS 7th Grade Boys Football team.

IF YOUR SON DOES NOT TAKE CARE OF THEIR EQUIPMENT, THEY WILL NOT PLAY FOR US!!!

I should have a better idea about who will play on the Gold Team and who will play on the Red Team by the end of this week.
