Week -2 HS/MS Early Camp

The varsity had a great first week of practice and the MS starts today. Each week I will post the weekly schedule on the blog and email it out as well. You will also get our weekly theme which for the first two weeks will be Purpose. We work to incorporate this theme into everything that we do during the week.

Purpose
Acts 17:26b “He determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live.”

Jeremiah 29:11 “‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.’”

Equipment
Your son will need to purchase cleats and a five pocket spandex girdle. I would prefer that all the cleats be predominantly black. It would also be good if your son had a dry fit material shirt to wear under their pads. Cotton is a very bad fabric to wear to exercise in because it traps in the heat.

Your son was given a mouthpiece which should be molded to his mouth using boiling water before practice. You can purchase a much higher end mouth piece that is better for protecting against concussions (this is why you wear a mouthpiece it is not to protect your teeth that is what the helmet is for) and is also better if they have braces. These are available at any sporting goods store.

HS-Practice Schedule
Monday 3:30-5:30 and 6:00-7:00 (Full Pads)
Tuesday 3:30-5:30 and 6:00-7:00 (Full Pads)

Friday 3:45-5:00 (Conditioning and Film)
Saturday 8:00-10:00 (Full Pads) This will be the last Saturday practice.

MS-Practice Schedule
We will be respectful of your time by ending practice on time. Your son should arrive at the field house approximately 30 minutes before the start of practice or as soon as possible after school and be on the field 10 minutes prior to the scheduled start time.

Monday 6:00-8:00 (Helmet Only-they will need shorts and cleats)
Tuesday 6:00-8:00 (Half Shell-they will need shorts and cleats)
Wednesday 3:45-5:30 (Full Pads)
Thursday 3:45-5:45 (Full Pads)
Friday 3:45-5:00 (Full Pads) Blue and White Night

Season Tickets
Many of you picked out a seat at the kickoff party. You can purchase them online at any time by going to www.cypresschristianfootball.org/tickets.php. When you purchase a season ticket you are supporting more than just football as 10% goes to benevolence and 10% goes to the general athletic booster account for all sports.

Blue and White Night
We will have a dedication of the new grandstand at Blue and White Night. Football players are also required to help with the clean up in the gym after the event.

In Christ,

Coach Spenn
