WELCOME PLAYERS AND PARENTS!


Hello parents!  I am Coach Tim and would like to welcome your child to the Broncos!   Our first game is Saturday January 8th, at Nichols Park in Gilbert on the corner of Higley and Guadalupe.  I have not yet received the Game Schedule from Thunder Alley and will provide it when I get it. 

Due to the holidays our first practice will be after Christmas and since we only have two weeks before the first game I will be holding practice on three days (Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday).  Because of the short days this time of year, practice will begin at 4:30pm and end at approximately 5:30pm.  Practice attendance is crucial to your child’s development and understanding of the formations and routes we will be teaching.   Attendance of all practices is expected, unless you have provided schedule conflicts.  If you do have a conflict please have your child attend the available days.

Please stay at least 10-15 minutes during the first practice so we can meet, discuss expectations, and receive some handouts. I will hand out the jerseys and flags during practice as soon as I receive them.

The practice location, football rules and parent code of conduct are attached to this email.  Please read the Parent Code of Conduct.  The following items are required for every practice. 
  • Water/Drink
  • Rubber Cleats (Tennis shoes are optional but not preferred)
  • Mouthguard (optional)
  • Good attitude and readiness to learn and have fun! 

The following items are required for every game:
  • Mouthguard
  • Rubber Cleats
  • Flags (Player will be responsible for their own flags once I hand them out.)
  • Jersey (Player will be responsible for their own jersey once I hand them out.)
  • Black shorts if possible.  (no pockets)
  • Water/Drink

I have also put together this team blog to centralize necessary information and provide updates to supplement any emails or phone calls.

I look forward to working with your child as we strive to learn fundamentals, improve skills, have fun, and if all goes well, Win!  My goal is to provide a worthwhile athletic experience for your child, regardless of the outcome of the game.  Sometimes adversity provides the best education.  If you have any questions or concerns my contact information is below, and I’ll see you on Tuesday 12/28 at 4:30pm.

- Coach Tim
