Dear Parents,
It is that time of year again. The
coaching staff and I are extremely excited about the
upcoming season. As we all know this is a very busy time of
year for sports here at Midlothian High School. The
volleyball team is still in season and the girls’ basketball
team begins practice today. We begin practice next
Wednesday, October 29th. The freshman boys’ will
begin practice at 7:30 am in the arena. The junior varsity
and varsity teams will begin practice at 5:30pm until
volleyball is finished with their season. Once the
volleyball season is over we will have a set schedule of
when practices will be. We will send out a practice
schedule for the year at this time.
Also, we know
that everyone is beginning to make plans for the holidays.
I wanted to inform everyone that all teams have a game on
Monday, November 24th. We will have practice on
Tuesday, November 25th and again on Saturday,
November 29th. During the Christmas break we
have a game on Saturday, December 20th. We are
giving all teams off December 21- December 26th.
We will have practice on Saturday, December 27th.
Freshman, JV, and Varsity teams will all be in tournaments
December 29th-31st. We will then
practice on January 1st and our first district
game will be on Friday, January 2nd. I encourage
all athletes to attend all practices during the holidays. I
appreciate sacrifices that might have to be made during the
holidays.
In closing,
tryouts are continuing everyday during our athletic period,
and all teams will be finalized on November 13th.
We will also be having a parent meeting for all parents
involved with the Panther Basketball program on Thursday,
November 13th at 7:00 pm in the high school
cafeteria. Schedules, directions to all games and important
information will be given at this time. We also encourage
everyone to stay for the booster club meeting to follow
after the meeting. Hope to see you there!!!
Thank you
for your support,
Glenn
