Evergreen Park Girls Track and Field 2018

We want to make sure that this packet is read and understood by all teammates and their family members. Please read, sign and return the following to your coaches so that we can be sure everyone understands the expectations we have for our athletes.

I have read the Evergreen Park Girls Track and Field Team rules and agree to abide by them throughout the entire season: (Please read the list below for a quick recap of the packet.)

  1. Attendance: I will attend practice regularly and will inform my coaches of any planned absences. If I am absent from school, I will attempt to contact my coach to let them know. If I am late to practice, I will bring a pass from the teacher I was with. I understand that excessive absences may cause me to not be considered for varsity events or may cause me to be cut from the team.
  2. Grades: I will be a student first, focusing on my grades and passing a minimum of 3/4 classes weekly.
  3. Behavior: I will conduct myself with honor and pride representing EPHS in a mature and responsible manner at all times.
  4. Health: I will make sure that I am taking care of my health by eating healthy, drinking plenty of water and getting an adequate amount of sleep nightly.
  5. Injuries: I will report any injuries to my coach. If I need to go to the trainer on a daily basis, I will report to them as quickly as possible so that I may make it to practice quickly. I will not “hang out” in the training room. If I have asthma, I will have my inhaler handy at all times.
  6. Electronic Devices: I will not use my cell phone or any electronic device at practice at any time. I will keep my cell phone in my locker or hidden away at all times during practice. I am solely responsible for the safety of my electronic devices.
  7. Clothing: I will dress appropriately for practice. I will have a hat, gloves, sweatshirt, sweatpants, or tights in my athletic locker at all times. I will take care of my uniform and return it in good condition at the end of the season.
  8. Meets: I understand that I am expected to stay for the entirety of our meets. If I need to leave early from a meet, I will explain the situation to my coaches and will give my coaches the EPHS form signed by my parents 24 hours in advance of the meet. I promise to warm-up and cool down appropriately for my events and to prepare for each event. I will cheer on everyone at the meets and act graciously to my competitors. I will support my teammates who are competing in different events.
  9. IHSA RULES: I will abide by all the IHSA rules regarding high school sports participation.
  10. Parents/Guardians: Parents/Guardians are not allowed at practice or in the competition area during meets/invites. Please let the coaches coach.
