Requirements

All athletes need to complete the following before they will be allowed to compete

• Sports Physical - athletes will not be allowed to practice with the team if they have not completed their physicals.  If you still need a physical, forms can be picked up in the office.  Athletes without a physical are still expected to show up to practice to check in with me. 
• LOH Code Night and signed Code of Conduct - I attribute much of our success over the past 5 years to the fact that our teams have embraced the LOH code more than any other group on campus.  Code Night is not just another hoop to jump through.  It helps us set the culture for the entire athletic department.  If you attended the Code Night in May, you do not have to attend this one.  
• Team Rules - As we get our team together, our Captains will develop team rules.  All athletes need to adhere to these rules for the duration of our season.
