Mounds View High School Girl rls Soccer r Uniform rm/Equipment Policy

At the beginning of each season, every player in our program will be equipped with home and away jerseys, shorts and a practice jersey. Home and away socks will also be available for purchase and will be kept by the players. The uniforms, however, must be properly cared for in order to allow our program to be able to hand down sets from previous years, while maintaining a polished look. Here are our guidelines:

• Players are not allowed to wear any part of their uniform; shorts or jerseys to practice at

any time.

• Players will be responsible for properly and consistently washing their uniforms and

removing stains in a timely manner.

• Players will turn in their uniform upon completion of their season in full and in good

condition, minus normal wear and tear of a season, or will be responsible for any missing

• r damaged parts
• Players that receive warm-ups and backpacks will return the items in good working order,

minus normal wear and tear of a season, or will be responsible for it’s replacement.
