East Hamilton Football Information
Thank you for your interest in our football program and allowing your child the opportunity to come out for the team. Here is what the players need to know before coming out for football.
· The school will supply each player with a helmet, shoulder pads, knee pads, and practice jersey.
· Each player is responsible for a 5-piece girdle, practice pants, or practice pants that have pads included. Also, a mouth piece is needed if the player has braces and shoes.
· The cost for each player will be $150 but this will include a pair of shorts, shirt, hoodie, equipment bag, and athletic fee. If this is an issue, don’t hesitate to discuss this with me. I don’t want this to have any bearing on coming out for the team.
· All players must have a current physical (dated after April 15, 2025), concussion form, cardiac arrest form, and emergency form. All paperwork is available on TSSAA.org or on the school web site.
· All paperwork must be completed on final forms.
· Academic requirements will be set forth by East Hamilton School.
· We will begin practice on July 16th from 5:30 to 7:30. I will give out more information at a later date but just wanted to give you a start date. All paperwork must be completed before they can be on the field.
· All players must complete 5 days of acclamation before they can dress in full pads. The first two days are helmets only and the next three days are helmets and shoulder pads.
