Week 01/02
Hello all! My weekly update for this week is a bit late so I'm going to loop it into next weeks weekly update and do that a bit early as well.
Week 01 has been a blast so far, getting to know each other better and diving back into their skills all while piecing together the start of their new routines for the competition season...which is only 10 practices away as of today!!
A few reminders for the remainder of this week; our pre-season store closed yesterday but we still have the squadlocker store open at all times. You can view that here.
If you have not brought in your booster club checks as of yet, they are requesting you do so by the end of this week Saturday. You can also pay those fees via our Venmo account @rogersroyalsgym. The booster club fee is $200 and there are two volunteer checks that will be torn up at the end of the season, both of those are $250.
Tonight practice will go until roughly 9pm for those that have indicated they will be missing practice on Friday. There are only 5-6 girls coming Friday so that practice we will shorted to 5pm. Saturday we have practice 8-11 and the girls will be finalizing their beginning of the season routines.
Our first meet of the season is Saturday December 3rd at the White Bear Lake "Interstellar" Invitational. If you would like a tshirt, they are pre-order only and orders need to be in by THIS Sunday.
Next week the schedule is as posted in the graphic attached to this post. Wednesday's practice will be during the day due to the girls not having school, we will not have practice Thursday due to the holiday, and Friday after practice we will have our team lock in as a kick off to the competition season!
For the lock in, girls should bring a pair of pajamas to lounge in, a blanket and pillow for getting cozy during our movie, and if anyone is willing, a snack of some sort to share! Pizza's will be provided as well.
Saturday morning we will meet at 10:00am (an hour before the listed practice time) so that we can do our team photos in the gym before practice begins. I will hand out leotards prior to Saturday and that is what they will be wearing for both team and individual photos.
If you will be out of town over the weekend for previous holiday plans, please be sure to let me know asap so I can plan accordingly. You can send me a message in band or shoot me an email.
I'm going to preemptively thank you all for everything you do for me and the rest of the coaches throughout the season, we are SO happy to be back in the gym!
