• if you are unable to play in your team in a particular week, you need to let your coach know as early as possible
• please be on time to the Doyle Centre on your sport day - all EISM Teams need to leave at the start of lunch to get to venues to play
• 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 for $10) & mouthguards must be worn for hockey
