Uniforms:
As in previous years, uniforms will be loaned; there is no extra cost to the player (Value: $200). Uniforms are the property of the Greenville Hurricanes and will be returned at the end of the season. If a player loses or damages a uniform, the player will be charged the full cost of replacing the damaged or lost jersey. If you wish to purchase your uniform, please indicate in the registration process what part of the uniform you wish to purchase.
Volunteer Requirements:
The entire Girls Basketball operation is completed with volunteers. We will need volunteers to help with admissions, concessions, scoreboard operations, scorebook, stat tracking and occasional event support. We will have a minimum amount of spots to fill per athlete on our volunteer schedule.
Fundraising:
This is a critical aspect of our program. We will have individual and group initiatives that each player can use to raise funds to reduce the cost of the program-related fees. Our Basketball Shoot-a-Thon has been very successful in the past, and Boys and Girls Basketball plan to hold this event jointly this year on October 18. This is a fun and engaging way to raise funds!
