The coach will contact you in July to let you know exactly when your practices will begin. Practices are very important. You should understand that you've made a commitment to a team when you registered which means you're committed to both the practices and games. Coaches require that any absences from practices and/or games be discussed in advance if possible. Please read the "Rules and Regulations" that you will receive at the beginning of the season.
