PROVIDED EQUIPMENT

The league supplies the game day uniform, helmet, shoulder pads, and mouthpieces, but each player is required to obtain their own cleats, practice jersey, and practice pants as well as bring their own water to all practices and games.

EVALUATIONS

Our evaluation dates are spent collecting player metrics and observing skills so that we can "score" a player. We do this to establish a baseline score when drafting each team for the in-house league, as well as identifying those players that belong on the travel team at the 5/6 level.

Install dates are a collective effort to install Westfield's base offensive and defensive plays, alignments, and assignments with the entire division participating as one.

Special Notes:

  • Evaluations/Install are conducted in full pads.
  • Please make sure that you follow the instructions on fitting the mouthpiece.
  • Please ensure that you always send plenty of water for your player.
  • Please help us keep Grand Park free of trash following practices and games.
  • Please review the WYSI Code of Conduct in the Policies & Procedure
