About:
This is our second year doing it as we did it the year prior to COVID but took last year off to keep the teams separate. We pair a Varsity player with a JV and Modified player. The girls exchange phone numbers and introduce themselves in hopes to give the girls support throughout the program. We will practice together 2-3 times a season and if scheduling allows we will go to a game or two as a team to support their sisters. I actually got this idea from Adam Palumbo, the coach of Pittsford Sutherland.
We have 23 Varsity athletes including a couple girls who are injured for the season. I would say between practices, riding the bus together and sharing the seat with their “sisters”, going to each other’s games, it is around 10 hours for the season which runs for a month and a half.
