House Keeping
Reminder, any athletes who are not moving on must return their uniform at practice. Athletes who do not turn in their uniforms and sweatpants will be subject to a fine.
Donate your used spikes to a Nighthawk in need!
If your athlete has spikes from last season that aren’t super torn up, they can use them again. If they are getting new spikes and don’t need their old ones, feel free to bring them to practice and we can share them with another nighthawk in need! Once your athlete gets their spikes, have them show their coach before wearing them at practice. We can help navigate each athletes needs.
