Weekly Schedule - 9/26/16

Hard to believe it's the last week of September already. We've come a long way as a team but we still have a long way to go. This week is going to be a busy week with two meets, including our invitational that we host. Please be sure to stay on top of your studies, rest and nutrition. This is the time of year we start to worry about girls getting sick so please lets take care of ourselves!


Schedule: 
Monday                Practice 3:30-6:00pm
Tuesday                Meet at Mountain Range HS
Wednesday           Practice 3:30-5:30pm
Thursday              Practice 3:30-5:30pm  *VARSITY ONLY*
Friday                  Mandatory Gym Set Up at Mountain Range HS-3:30-5:00pm


9/27  at Mountain Range HS (NO BUS)
12500 Huron Street
Please have girls arrive at Mountain Range by 4:00pm
Competition begins at 6pm
We are not providing snacks/sandwiches for this meet because it is so close and there is no bus ride. Please be sure your daughter eats lunch and packs a few snacks for themselves.

9/30   Gym Set Up at Mountain Range HS
In preparation for our invitational on Saturday we get together with the team from Mountain Range to move all of the equipment from the small gym to the large gym. This set up is mandatory. It's important that our team is there to help as we are renting their gym/equipment so the responsibility does not lie with Mountain Range. This set up usually takes an hour, but there have been times in the past it has taken less.

Please get to MRHS as soon as possible after school. BHS students I need your here by 3:30pm; all outlying students ASAP.

10/1 35th Annual Broomfield Invitational (yes 35 years :))
7:30am          Competitors Arrive
7:45am          Open Gym Warm Ups
8:15am          Timed Warm Ups Begin
8:30am           Non-Competitors Arrive
9:15am          March In
3:00pm          Awards (Estimated)

Please note there will be a gate fee at the meet ($5 adults, $4 students/seniors). Mountain Range will also be providing a concession stand. For those of you familiar with this meet it will be a little different this year as Mtn Range double booked their gym and will be having homecoming after our meet. That said, parking will be in the same lot on the east side of the school but entry will be through the south doors (by the tennis courts).

If your daughter has homecoming Saturday night our team policy is that she may leave at the conclusion on our team's last competitor. Please let Whitney or I know if you plan on leaving early and when you do leave.

Excited for a fun and busy week and continued improvement!

Weekly Schedule - 9/12/16

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!!

Weekly Schedule

Monday              3:30-6:00pm
Tuesday              3:30-5:30pm
   *Team Dinner (see details below)
Wednesday         Home Meet vs. Thornton
Thursday             Pictures


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.
1556 Daphne Street
Broomfield, CO

Wednesday - Meet Night
The girls need to be to the gym between 3:15-3:30 as we will clean up/set up the gym and bleachers. Here is the meet schedule.
4:15pm   Open Gym
4:40-5:40 Timed Warm Ups
5:50pm   March In
6:00pm    Competition Begins

Competition order: Vault-Bars-Beam-Floor

Thursday - Team Pictures 3:45pm at PDRC / No Practice
I hope to hand out picture packets prior to Thursday (assuming I receive them :)) Girls need to wear their competition leotard for pictures. We will be in the front of PDRC for pictures. Most girls choose to wear their hair down for pictures which is fine.

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.

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.
