Do not call prior to the event, just like other EP's we teach and have class. Simply send an email. 

Do call the day of if you are running behind so we do not mess up the match schedule. 

We will have concessions and pizza for purchase. - So bring your cash! This is how we raise money for our program. 

 

Remain only in the cafeteria- Any students or coaches roaming the halls will be in violation of following the EP's rules and it will result in a <G1> violation.
