UNIFORMS

TRAVEL

Recruiting tourneys are “stay to play” tourneys. Meaning we have to stay in certain hotels they choose, or the team can pay a fine to stay somewhere else. This means all players must stay in team hotel. While on the road, it is a business trip. There will be structured team events for the girls, but it is important for all the girls to be all together throughout their free time.

 

TOURNAMENTS

Our team will register in local and travel tournaments. We will play in NSA/USSSA/ASA local tournaments from Everett to Kent area. There will be 2-3 in the fall and tournaments starting again in the early spring into summer time. We will travel out of state for different tournaments. These tournaments will be Triple Crown tournaments that have college exposure opportunities. Exposure tournaments often are a couple days and will be out of state. 

 

HIGH SCHOOL SEASON

During March-May, we will continue to have a weekend practice, with the occasional tournament to keep our team playing together during the high school season. 

 

TEAM COHESION

Throughout the season, we will have different team bonding opportunities for the girls. It is important for each girl to make these a priority. Our goal is to have the girls learn to respect each other, their abilities and areas of growth, while supporting each other throughout the season. We want the girls to learn to play for each other and have each other's backs on and off the field. Each player has a role on the team, whether they are on the field or on the bench. The girls will compete for their spots within practices and games and continue to be game ready throughout the season.
