  7. Slush Fund • Recommend a different parent be the Treasurer and handle the slush fund • Have a full accounting of the slush fund for the parents at the ready should you be asked • Good idea to give parents a monthly update of account balance as needed • Provide parents with an end of season balance and discuss party / refund if applicable • If a parent is not paying slush please notify Glenn Agrest as that player may be suspended. • Expense Reimbursement • Book hotel rooms for coach and assistant coach for out of town tournaments • Coaches are reimbursed for: Food and gas and where applicable, plane tickets and a reasonable rental car. This is actual monies spent, e.g. you cannot use mileage. • YOU ARE SPENDING ALL THE PARENTS MONEY – USE COMMON SENSE. FalconsTravelTeamManagers Meeting

Booking team hotel rooms on time. • Representing the Falcons – • Pregame / Postgame. Warmups / Uniforms / Headwear. • Game behavior. Respect for other team, parents and referees FalconsTravelTeamManagers Meeting

  9. Jerseys and Equipment • Jersey and shirt sizing information was collected during conditioning skates. If a player requires a new jersey due to size or condition, they will be charged $200.00 payable via a link you will send directly to the parents. In the case of a new player or a number conflict (based on seniority) a new jersey will be supplied. • Team managers will be given a list of their roster’s sizing that was collected. They must confirm with parents if they are ordering jerseys and warmups. It is a good idea to make them aware of the cost of what they are purchasing at this point so there isn’t any confusion. This is also the time to rectify jersey numbers. This needs to happen ASAP as we place one order for all jerseys and warmups. • Standard Jerseys are the White & Black • Patch information (where applicable) for jerseys to follow FalconsTravelTeamManagers Meeting

  10. Jerseys and Equipment Cont. • Care for your jersey • The FHA are encouraging teams to use jersey bags (or at least hangers) and to not throw them in the bottom of a smelly hockey bag. Please wash jersey as needed. We are seeing color damage on jerseys due to lack of care. • Please wash in cold water, gentle cycle & hang dry • Pants, Gloves, Helmet • Pants must be black • Helmet must be black (with FALCONS sticker on each side) • Gloves must be black (they may have red & white accents) • This is not optional…if parents have an issue please have them contact Dave Bradley.

  11. Warmups • Warmups are$120.00/set (Jackets $70, Pants $50). Sizing was completed during conditioning and try-out skate • Includetopandbottom,withembroideredlastnameand logo • onthejacketandembroiderednumberonthepants • Warmups aremandatoryfor CSDHLteams for the2019-20seasons • NIHLTravel Teamshave theCoach’s optionto: • Purchasea newset, wear last yearsor optfor alternative“team” look • **FHA recommendswarmups** • Managers collectmoney for warmups viaslush fundand submitone check payableto: • FalconsHockeyAssociationor Chase Quickpay to treasurer@falconshockey.org FalconsTravelTeamManagers Meeting
