MISSION STATEMENT & CORE VALUES Develop student-athletes who are committed maintaining integrity, placing service before self, and achieving excellence in the classroom, on the field, and in the community. Integrity First - Integrity is a character trait. It is the willingness to do what is right even when no one is looking. Service before Self - Service before self tells us that our duties and responsibilities to others take precedence over our own personal desires and individual goals. Excellence in all that we do - Excellence in all we do directs us to develop a sustained passion for the continuous improvement.

PRACTICE SCHEDULE & IN-SEASON ROUTINE AHSAA By Law change allows us to start group workouts now however... Throwing & Conditioning will begin Jan 5th Will can/will do workouts after those sessions. Practice normally Mon-Fri till 6pm (5pm on Weds). Starting Monday, Jan 25th Bring all relevant baseball equipment each day. January & Game Schedule attached

ATTENDANCE, GRADES, BEHAVIOR, & GENERAL EXPECTATIONS Fundamentals are emphasized at practice, Attendance is extremely important. If absent, please notify the coach in advance of practice. (text or email is fine, would prefer the player did it.) Grades will be monitored by the coaching staff and all players must maintain a 2.5 GPA. (MHS Policy as well) Players are expected to conduct themselves appropriately, any issues will be dealt with by the coaching staff. Punishment for infractions of this policy will be handled on a case by case basis, progressing from an OSI (opportunity for self-improvement) and progressing to suspension from team activities. If lack of self-discipline becomes an issue, we may need to meet together to determine what is best for the team and the individual going forward.

INJURY & TRAVEL PROTOCOL Injury Protocol Let coaching staff know immediately of any athletics related injuries before going to the doctor. We may be able to arrange for the player to see a specialist. Traveling Protocol Players are required to travel with the team TO athletic events. Players may be signed out and travel home with a parent or guardian. Players CAN NOT travel home with anyone except a guardian. ALL players must be accounted for before we depart!
