📸 Media Day 🚨🚨 - Varsity players, media day is tomorrow (Monday (8/18) at 12:30pm. Please bring your uniforms and arrive to JC by 12:30 for media day - the school will be filming content for promoting games. Please check with your teammates to ensure everyone gets the message. Players assigned to JV do not need to attend. Apologies for the later reminder and awkward time - I had thought it was going to be during practice.

📆 Schedule Updates
- 8/22 Scrimmage Cancelled - The 8/22 scrimmage vs. Gilman for this Friday has been cancelled. We are attempting to re-schedule, and I will update if we do. We will still plan to hold team practice/workouts this Friday - though the gyms are not available for our normal practice time, so I will update the team (and the calendar) once I confirm availability with the school.
- 10/1 Game Moved to 9/30 - FYI - we had a home game moved from Wednesday 10/1 to the day before, Tuesday 9/30, vs. Gilman.
- Senior Night - I will discuss with our seniors this week to pick which game they would like for it to be on, and we will plan around that. Consider 10/27 an initial tentative placeholder. More info coming soon!

🏐 Season Schedule - The game schedule can be seen at the jcvb-2025-schedule Spreadsheet, as well as on my JCVB iCalendar - we are planning to set up TeamSnap in the coming weeks. I have loaded the full practice schedule in to the iCalendar, and I will be keeping it up to date as things change. Currently, I am keeping JV & Varsity together in one calendar. If the JCVB iCalendar hyperlink does not work - the link to subscribe is here: webcal://p151-caldav.icloud.com/published/2/ODMxNjYzNjI4NDgzMTY2MyxB8khPlofh0YA_rN2EVTq8GMTyQiDOG3U4v7z2Fqv4NLOo3IFmEnaaa29kPbhcdakGcbsd7cNJJRIYuWVo7pw
