We do not know the schedule yet. Ask the group.

We do not have a meeting place for this group yet.

Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Email info@katieskomets.org to ask how to join, or send a note through the contact form on the homepage..

Check with the group before you show up.

What to expect

The team is for youth with lower limb impairments. Prep players are 13 and under, and varsity players must be in school. The site does not describe a first practice, tryouts or player fees, so the email is the best way to learn those details.

Tips for your first visit

  • Email the team first, since the site lists no practice days, times or location.
  • Ask which division fits: prep is for players 13 and under, and varsity is for players in school.
  • Ask about the varsity age limit, which the site does not state.

Newcomer welcome

Fine for newcomers, but you may need to speak up (3 out of 5). Why we say this: The site says the team is always looking for new players and gives an email address and a contact form. It does not describe tryouts or a first visit, so the way in is clear but not detailed..
