Player & Parent handbook
Players and Parents are asked to review the handbook each season.
It provides an aritculation of the Tartan High School Softball policies including but not limited to: team philosophies, playing time, transportation, lettering, etc.
We will ask each player and parent to sign and acknowledgment from regarding these policies. This acknowledgement form must be handed in to the coaching staff before players are given a uniform.
Transportation Information
There will be transportation provided to players from North to get to the Tartan campus for games and practices. It could be in the form of a van or a bus. Players will need transportation home from Tartan following practices and games.
If a practice is moved to SkyView and is right after school, players from North will have transportation to SkyView
At this time Tartan players do not have a designated transportation option to get to SkyView for afterschool practices.
Practices that take place later in the afternoon/evening (4:30pm and later) will require all players to find transportation to the practice site.
It is an expectation that players ride the bus to and from games. This is a district policy. Should you come across a situation in which a player needs a a ride to or from a game please complete the transportation form and email it Coach Dooley in advance. The District Policy asks for 24hour notice, the sooner the better so that all district personel are made aware of the request (Coaches, and Athletic Office staff).
In extenuating circumstances players are only allowed to be transported by a parent/guardian, or drive themselves with parent permission, players may not leave with friends.
