If more than one practice is missed the skater will not be able to skate in that number. • The coaches want skaters and parents driving to be safe on the roads! Please obey traffic rules while coming to practice. Being late is far better than being injured. • If you are going to be late, Please inform Coach Rachelle (text preferred). DON’T TEXT AND DRIVE
Team vs Individual Skating • Individual: • Parents and skaters are familiar with getting one on one attention from their skating coach. That's what their coach is paid to do. • Adjusting rules and ice time for the skater to fit their schedule and needs. • Coaches are expecting to get an email about the things they don’t like about the training plan so they can obtain individual goals in a timely manor. • Being on a team: • Rules are rules, NO exceptions and NO special attention. • REMEMBER this is a high school lettering program. • Coaches are not expecting an email as to whether or not the training plan fits the individual skater. The plan the coaches make are for the best of the team.
