We survived our first big invitational meet and I was really proud of this team. Whitney and I always talk about judging our night based on our performance because in such a subjective sport and human judges sometimes the actual scores don't reflect our performance. That was just the case Friday night. There were some really low scores but overall we thought our performance was the best of the season. Still a lot of room for growth and improvement and we are going to push the girls hard this week in our quest to get better but we are excited to get back in the gym to work!!

Team Dinner - Tuesday 6-7:30pm
We'll be having our first team dinner on Tuesday night after practice. The girls will need to carpool to Hannah's house and then arrange for pick up from there after dinner. Usually the girls are done eating between 7-7:30pm This is a casual fun evening just allowing the girls to spend time together before the first home meet.
Thank you to our host families Hannah Jacobs (Kevin) and Lea Hibbard (Joni) for your help.

Weekly Schedule 9/5/16
We survived our first (hot) meet of the fall. Did I mention that most gyms will be hot :).
Overall I think our performance was about what we expected, some nerves got the best of us but it showed us what we need to work on moving forward. I loved our energy and team spirit!
This week is a busy week with two weeknight meets so please be sure to read through all of the information below.
Schedule
Monday 9-11:15am
Tuesday Meet at Rocky Mountain HS (Fort Collins)
***Bus departs BHS at 3pm***
THIS IS A CHANGE FROM THE ORIGINAL SCHEDULE
BHS Students released from class at 2:45pm
All others released at 2:30pm
Sandwiches - Lea Hibbard
Snacks - Coaches
Drinks - Nicole (we did run out of water at the first meet :))
Wednesday 3:30-6:00pm Varsity Only / JV Open Gym Optional
Because Friday's meet at the Loveland Invite is a varsity only competition and the
girls will be missing a lot of school through the week we don't want to take away
from study time if needed. Therefore we will notify to girls on Tuesday if they will
be required to be at practice Wednesday, for everyone else it will be an optional open
gym.
Thursday No Practice
Friday Loveland Invite
Bus departs BHS at 12:15pm
**DROP OFF ONLY - Girls need to arrange for carpool/rides home
BHS students released at 12:00pm
All others released at 11:30am
We will have a tentative line up for this meet on Tuesday when we announce those that should be at practice Wednesday. Those not competing are still encouraged and will be excused to attend the meet with us. That said, if your daughter feels that she simply can't miss that much school then we ask she find a ride up to the meet after school. We really like to encourage all of the girls to attend the big invites to support and experience the larger competitions. Please let me know ASAP if your daughter will not be attending and/or riding the bus.
Also, I'll be sending an email with a field trip permission slip that needs to be signed and returned to me at practice prior to Friday's meet. This is a new form the school wants this year for the three meets (Loveland Invite, Mtn Range, Broomfield Invite) that we will not be providing buses for one or both ways.
Sandwiches - Jaylee
Snacks - Jenna

Let the fun begin....official start to season 2016
Here we go…our season officially starts tomorrow!! We had a great time at camp with all of the girls (and certainly missed the few that couldn’t attend) and can’t wait to begin our season. We like to have a theme/motto each season to help set the tone for the girls and remind us all what our goals are and this year we are so excited to D16 DEEP within ourselves to be the best we can be!
A few notes on our schedule and misc. info for the week to come….
Registration
You must be registered (athletic registration) before you will be allowed to practice. To complete this you must pay your $185 athletic registration fee to the school (online via RevTrak or in person to Mrs. Orvis) and then you must provide proof of payment and physical to Mrs. Orvis in the athletic office. She will then give you a white receipt which allows you to participate. If you do not have this receipt you MUST get it before coming to practice. Mrs. Orvis is in the office at BHS from 7:30am-3:30pm everyday.
Practice Schedule
I will hand out a season calendar at the mandatory parent’s meeting on Thursday but until then here is our schedule for this week.
Monday 8-10:15am
Tuesday/Wednesday 3:30-5:45pm
Thursday 3:30-5:30pm
Friday No Practice
Mandatory Parent’s Meeting
Broomfield athletics require all parents to attend the fall sports meeting on Thursday, August 18 at 6pm in the BHS auditorium. Our athletic director, Autumn Sereno, will discuss general athletic guidelines, academic eligibility, etc. We will then break out into individual sport meetings at which time I’ll discuss our team policies, expectations, schedule, etc. Please plan on your athlete and one parent attending the meeting.
Communication
Please be sure to follow either of the two sites to ensure you are up to date on my communication. I try to update both on Sunday’s for the upcoming week. Please have your athlete follow as well to stay current.

STATE....One Heart One Team!
Wow!!! I can't truly express how proud I am of this team. As you can imagine it was an emotional week for all of us and to be able to come back and focus on the meet and perform as well as we did was outstanding. And the beauty is we still have room for improvement! :)
This is our last official week of the season and it will be busy. Please, please, please make sure your daughter is getting rest and keeping their normal schedule.
We are going to have "spirit week" at school this week to help draw attention to the girls for the state meet so please note the clothing schedule as well (competitors and non-comptitors please dress up)

Tuesday 3:30-5:30
Spirit Week - March in jacket

STATE @ Thornton High School
Meet at TBD 9:00am
Breakfast at The Egg & I 10:00am
(Thornton Pkwy & Washington)
Gym Opens for Competitors 1:00pm
March In 2:55pm
Important Notes: Please know that non-competitors are invited and encouraged to spend the entire day with us on Friday but need to be excused from school by their parents. If girls can't afford to miss the entire day it's completely understandable and they can come to the meet as soon as school is over.
Competitors will be excused from school for the entire day.
The girls will get together before breakfast (I'll confirm location tomorrow) to do their hair before carpooling to breakfast. I'm looking for one additional volunteer to help carpool the girls to breakfast and you are welcome to join us at breakfast as well. Please email me directly if you're interested and can help.
BHS will pay for the competitors breakfast; non-competitors need to bring money for breakfast.
From breakfast we will carpool across the way to Thornton HS. We are given entrance passes from CHSAA and I don't know how many we will be given until I arrive there on Friday. Because we have a larger team there is a chance that I will be short passes and non-competitors may have to pay to get in (this hasn't happened in many years but I'm cautious and like to be prepared). Please bring $12 for an all session student pass just in case.
On Monday morning CHSAA will have the seeding meeting and send out our competition order; I'll let the girls and you know as soon as I do. The state meet format will be warm up 2 events, compete 2 events.
Adult ticket prices are $15 for both Friday (team competition) & Saturday (event finals)
Seniors/Students are $12 for both sessions
Adult single day ticket is $8
Seniors/Students single day ticket is $5
SATURDAY
Event Finals - if we have girls that finish in the top-15 on any event on Friday they will compete in event finals on Saturday. (These results, along with the team results, will be announced Friday night)
Open Warm Up 2:00pm
March In 3:55pm
Competition 4:00pm
Awards (approx.) 6:30pm
STATE MEET FORMAT
Team and all around results are determined during Friday's competition. The top-15 finishers on each event on Friday then qualify for the event finals on Saturday afternoon. If we have qualifiers for Saturday we will be there as a team to support and cheer them on.
The gym on Friday will be FULL so please plan on arriving early. We will do our best to save seats using the BHS banners. CHSAA doesn't love us saving seats so it's always best if some parents can arrive early to help save a parent's section. Don't forget to wear your blue and sit together!
We (coaches) will provide sandwiches for the girls at the meet but would like to ask for a volunteer that can pick them up for us. We are also asking the the competitors bring a snack to share with the team. It's an incredibly long day so having lots of food and water is critical. We've assigned the snacks below:
Coaches - Sandwiches (need a volunteer to PU)
Sarah - Nutella
Heather - Veggie Dip
Kelsey - Crackers
Nicki - Small/Medium Cooler to store the food in
Peyton - Snack of choice
Heidi - Sliced Apples
Sam - Meat Tray
Madeline - Cheese slices (snack size)
Abby - Veggies
Abbi - Sliced Apples
Halle - Drinks
I know this was a LOT of information so please don't hesitate to write me with any additional questions.
This is a fun and exciting week and we alway appreciate your help and support. Please try and keep the girls rested, hydrated, well fed and as stress free as possible!
