DISTRICT TOURNAMENT
Our District Tournament is this week! There is a lot of information for the coming week, so please be sure to read all of the information below.
Weather Precautions:
As you know, the weather this week could be severe. NCHBC will keep us updated if games may be cancelled or postponed because of freezing temperatures and precipitation. LHC will send out any announcements in a newsletter and in our GroupMe group. When traveling, please be cautious and do what is best for your family! It may be wise to travel a day in advance while the sun is still shining for those who have games early in the morning on Friday.

Volunteers:
All families, please help your coaches and team managers out by volunteering to serve in volunteer positions this week!! We will need clock and book volunteers for the entire tournament. The tournament rules can be viewed below, it will be helpful if everyone familiarizes themselves with them.
Many families have players in multiple age groups, so volunteers may be sparse. If you are available during a game, please step up to serve! Many hands make light work!
Code of Conduct:
Please remember our LHC Code of Conduct while we are at the tournament. These fun tournaments can bring out the best but also the worst in us. Each of us is representing LHC, but more importantly we are representing Christ. We want our behavior and actions to be a reflection of Jesus in all that we do or say, even when refs or opposing teams may be frustrating or emotions run high. And we also strive to model Christ-likeness to our young athletes in all situations.
