August practices will be 3-4 days per week as we use this time prior to school and the upcoming season to get in as much practice as possible.
For the month of August your child must attend 75% of practices for the month in order to attend the 1st game of the season. If your child misses 4 or more practices in the month of August they will be asked to sit on the sidelines for that game.
If weather is an issue practice will be moved indoors to Temple Hill Academy. The call will be made by 4:00pm the latest if practice is moved or canceled for any reason.
Your child is to wear comfortable clothing and sneakers to practices. NO BOOTS, HIGH HEELS, JEANS OR ANY RESTRICTING CLOTHING. Additionally, no jewelry or nail polish can be worn at games as per OCYFL rules and regulations.
The sneakers you purchase are to be worn only for games and cheer fest. If you would like to order additional sneakers for practice that option is available
