Letter from the Athletic Director

 

June 12, 2008

 

 

We are happy you have decided to participate in our Summer Sports Program, which officially takes place from June 16 through August 1, 2008.  We expect that the following sports will be offered as we meet our minimum participants in each sport: JV/Varsity Volleyball, JV/Varsity Basketball, Cross Country, Soccer, and Conditioning- (exercising, running, swimming, and nutrition). The summer program and next school year’s sports program will be administered by the new HFHSCP Athletic Director, Mr. Ernest Siy.  During the summer he will coach the basketball teams, faculty member Mrs. Shelley Sonner will coach the volleyball teams, and newcomer Mr. Juan Nagore will coach the soccer and cross country teams, along with qualified adult volunteers.  Also, Dr. Dennis Buckley will again be on campus for sports physical exams after school on Friday, June 13; the cost is only $15, payable to him on the day.  These physicals are good for a calendar year.

 

The coaches will soon have their specific practices and games schedules available, but generally speaking, practices are held on campus, at the Glendale YMCA, and at nearby fields and tracks in the afternoons for all sports nearly every day.  Games are scheduled in special summer leagues at least once a week (except for Cross Country), so this is truly an extensive and worthwhile program for the participants.

 

JV/Varsity Basketball plays at Providence High School in Burbank on Thursday evenings. JV Volleyball plays on Wednesday evenings at Gabrielino High School in San Gabriel and Varsity Volleyball plays on Friday evenings at Gabrielino.  Soccer will compete on designated afternoons and evenings with 6-8 person teams at St. Genevieve High School in Panorama City, San Gabriel Mission in Alhambra, and Bishop Conaty in Los Angeles.  Cross Country and Conditioning practices will be using the above mentioned facilities as well as the Rose Bowl jogging course, the beach, hillside trails, and other tracks.

 

It is important that all student-athletes and their parents/guardians are aware of our HFHSCP Summer Sports Program policies.  All student-athletes must be physically, disciplinarily, and financially in good standing in order to be able to participate. (Although there is no academic GPA requirement for the Summer Sports Program, if a student’s 2nd semester Report Card GPA is below 2.0, she will not be eligible to participate in the Fall unless summer school remediation courses raise her GPA to a minimum of 2.0 by the start of school.)

Each student-athlete is required to pay for whichever sport(s) she registers and the Summer Sports Program Fees are based on the following:

·           One sport and/or conditioning: $200.00; two sports and conditioning: $375.00 (50% deposit was due by May 12, 2008) All balances must be paid in full by June 13, 2008.

These fees, along with fundraisers, must cover coaches’ salaries, facilities rentals, summer leagues, uniform rentals, equipment, and transportation.  (If extra tournaments are added to the schedule there will be an additional fee.)  Each student-athlete is required to participate in at least one official fundraiser or be assessed an additional $50 fee. There will be at least one Saturday car wash and other fundraiser opportunities for parents during the summer.  These activities help defray the enormous cost of offering such a program. Parents/Guardians may also receive approval for earning service hours by driving student-athletes, bringing drinks/treats to games, and working at fundraisers.

 

All student-athletes must have their medical release/sports physical, acknowledgement/consent form, and Code of Ethics forms on file with the Athletic Department before they practice or otherwise participate in our sports programs.  All forms are available at the AD Office or the AD shelves downstairs in the main building.  If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me as soon as possible at any of the numbers above. 

 

Go Gaels!

 

Mr. Evan McGrath, HFHSCP Athletic Director
