More Important Information:
Registration
If you haven't done so already and are interested in participating this year, please complete the online registration. Registration payment for this year should be done online this year so we don't have to collect anything at practice. If you have not submitted payment, please see the online registration above. Registration fees for the season is $100 per athlete or $200 maximum per family. If the registration fee is a financial issue, please contact us about scholarships at youth@bowermantc.com.
Uniforms
Demand for larger sizes was bigger than we anticipated. To clarify for parents, a “youth” sizing is women’s sizing, i.e. a youth XS is a women’s XS. We believe the majority of youth athletes 12 and under (and some 13-14) will fit underneath this category. If you’ve already purchased a size larger than XS we encourage you to have them try it on to make sure that it fits appropriately.
We will only have size XS on hand tonight at the Nike practice location. We still encourage you to have your son/daughter try it on. We are doing a rush order on the larger sizes and hope they will be available for the first meet next Saturday.
If you are at a different practice location other than Nike, please inform the location coach of your desired size and we will get the singlets to you next week!
Singlets ($40) are new this season and will be the new uniform from 2019-21 season at a minimum, so everyone will need to purchase a new singlet.
Jackets ($40) will be available for optional purchase as soon as possible
