Great Last Practice

The girls had a great last day of practice today and finished it off with dilly bars! We also had a team photo for them, but there will be a link to all the basketball pictures and videos later this weekfor those wanting prints. If anyone has some they want to share, please email them to us at ladyhawleynuggets@gmail.com and we will add them to the folder. Open Gym is still open through Spring and even better, it's free. It is a great time to burn some energy and practice their B.E.E.F. shooting skills. Thanks again for the hard work and being flexible with schedules to get the girls to practice and games! Kathleen & Kirsti

Autograph Night

Reminder: this Friday (February 22nd) is Autograph Night with the Varsity Girls Basketball Team. All girls basketball players Grades 3-6 are invited to attend and they will be able to get autographs of the varsity players after the Varsity Game. The Tema has team posters to give to the girls after the game, but even if you can't stay for the whole game, come and cheer the girls on to victory!

Practice Today but no pictures

We will have practice today but we know not everyone can make it and we were lucky to get a picture of all the girls on Thursday night anyway, so no need to come in maroon today. :-)

Scrimmage Thursday

Reminder: Thursday, February 14th, the girls one last opportunity to scrimmage during halftime of the B-Team's game. They should arrive by 5:35pm. Kirsti Fleming will be in the gym waiting for them and then take them to sit behind the B-Team. If they could arrive wearing the specific t-shirt, that will help. We will have extras on hand in case we need to quick change. As the girls have always practiced as a team, this will help them identify who is on their team. The teams are simply divided up on the availability of shirts as it is only a 7-minute scrimmage among themselves.

GOLD SHIRTS: Grace, Jada, Kaylie, Tallyn, Samantha, Taylor
MAROON SHIRTS: Kylie, Mackenzie, Alex, Kira, Faith, Lily, Madi
Based on how many arrive tomorrow, we will switch teams to even them out. If you know ahead of time that you cannot come, please let us know. Thanks.

Please sit directly behind the Hawley Nugget Bench in the bleachers and watch the games. You will play on the Nugget gym floor at halftime of the first game. You are also invited to stand in line with the varsity team during the introductions of starting lineups and cheer the girls on to victory. See the schedule below for the games you are invited to play at. On February 22 is Autograph night and all girls basketball players Grades 3-6 are invited to attend and you will be able to get autographs of varsity players after the Varsity Game.

Team Pictures this Sunday at practice. If the girls could wear a mostly maroon t-shirt, such as the ones they received from the PTO in Kindergarten, that would be great. I will have a few extra maroon shirts just in case.
