Have someone from the team (coach or team parent) drop the extra uniforms off at our office. We use extra uniforms to help keep our costs down.

The assistant coaches and team parent are moms and/or dads of players on your team that have indicated to us that they are willing to help you during the season. Introduce yourself as the head coach and let them know how they can help. You’ll find that assistant coaches and team parents can help you greatly and allow you to focus your attention on your players.

All players that are placed on a team MUST be registered and added by the recreation office. Coaches should not promise to anyone that they could be added to their team nor should a coach allow a non-registered child to participate in a team practice or game.

As soon as you know that a player on your roster is dropping of the team, notify our office immediately. We will do our best to add another player to your roster. All player additions MUST be authorized through the Newtown Recreation Office!

To avoid chaos, the recreation office assigns uniform colors randomly to each team.

It’s up to the individual coach. If it’s early in the season, it is probably a good idea to at least meet and try to have a practice (as long as it’s not pouring rain during your practice time!). If you DO cancel your practice, make sure that you notify your players and parents as soon as possible.
