| Q. |
Is a player guaranteed a certain amount of playing time? |
| |
A. |
Our coaching staff wants all of our students
to play in every game. Our philosophy is that students who participate in ALL practices and demonstrate an understanding of their responsibilities on and off the field earn playing time. |

| Q. |
Is there a bus to transport the players to
practice from Glacier Drumlin? |
| |
A. |
No. Players will need to arrange their own
transportation to and from practice. Car pools are encouraged |
|
|
|
| Q. |
Is there a bus to transport the players
and parents to away games? |
| |
A. |
. Yes as deemed necessary by
the team Coach and Program Director based on travel distance and game
time. We will contract for bus transportation to depart from Glacier
Drumlin at 3:45 to the game and return trip to Glacier Drumlin for all
players (and parents able to ride the bus). A $5.00 donation per rider
is requested to help offset the cost of the round trip bus fare. All
players will be required to ride the bus and return as a team to participate
in the game. Each team will need a parent(s) volunteer to act as
the bus coordinator to collect the $5.00 donation, arrange for the players
equipment to be delivered to the bus at Glacier Drumlin, and any other support
such as sandwiches and drinks. We must have a minimum of two parent
chaperones on board the bus. |
