- Your uniform needs to be 100% correct to ensure no forfeited games — hockey, soccer and football must wear long navy socks (available at the Doyle Centre) and mouthguards must be worn for hockey. NO CORRECT UNIFORM, NO GAME
- Live fixtures for EISM matches can be found online at eism.org — click on 'Weekly sport', then 'Junior' (for Year 8) or 'Senior/Intermediate' (Year 9 and Senior fixtures).
