Players, please forward on to at LEAST 5 people. If they are interested, take their name and order on the order form, and take their money. Check payable to RHS; orders due November 30. Flip Flops and Slides will be delivered BEFORE Christmas.

Monday and Tuesday morning practices are for returning JV and Varsity letterwinners. Tryouts for everyone else (9th and 10th graders) will be Monday and Tuesday afternoons. Freshmen & Sophomores will practice from 8:00-10:00 AM on Wednesday; older returners will practice 10:00-11:30 AM Wednesday. We will not hand out practice gear until teams are decided. Players should come in shorts, shirt, and shoes ready to go! 

Each year we encourage players to consider wearing ankle braces for practices and games. We have found the ASO Ankle Brace to offer great protection for minimizing the severity of ankle injuries. The ASO Ankle Brace is better, and more convenient, than taping ankles because it stays tight where tape tends to loosen over time. We have also found MacMed to offer them at the best price. Click HERE for their website. We will have each player order their own this year. Let me know if you have any questions. 

The practice calendar is complete and has been updated on the website.  Check the calendar link at the top of the page.

Believe it or not, it is time to be thinking about getting a pair of basketball shoes broken in.

If you have an interest in Nike shoes, click HERE for a deal arranged for us through the help of the boys basketall team. It will take about 2 weeks to get the shoes from Borch's Sporting Goods. There will be two orders places...the 1st order is October 5; the 2nd order is November 2. Please print out the form and bring to me by these dates to have shoes ordered. Payment would go to RHS, and MUST be received before order will be placed.

We will also have a team discount available at Scheels here in town. Girls Basketball players can get 20% off regular priced shoes. All you have to do is tell the salesperson you are from RHS and with girls' basketball. The list of interested players will be submitted to Scheels' shoe department. Ask for Bartt Nicholson (former RHS player's dad) if you have any issues.  

The seniors have asked everyone to try to wear Roosevelt colors if possible...anything with white, black, red, or gold.

Coach Clark is entering a new world of technology. Yes, it's time for Twitter. You can find me at https://twitter.com/SFRooseveltGBB

I've never used this before, so bare with me. Hopefully, it is something that helps us all communicate better. Thanks!

Last night was the end of the regular season for Summer Jam. Please click HERE for the bracket. The tournament starts Monday night. Please let me know ASAP if you cannot play. Thanks and good luck!

Team 1 will play in the 2nd round on Wednesday night at 6:00 PM on Court 2 vs. Washington 2. Hull Western Christian is playing Washington 1 in the other semi-final game.

Unfortunately, there were not enough teams interested to make the July JV Summer League go. I will not deposit any checks submitted. 

We still have room for more players to got to the Southwest Minnesota Shootout in Luverne the last weekend of July. We are also in need of parent coaches that weekend because we will be out of coaching contacts. Let me know if you are interested in playing or coaching. Thanks and see you at open gym!!!
