Varsity Update
We will attempt to field a Varsity team this year. This team will be stocked mainly with players not enrolled in Brandon Schools as well as 12yr. olds in the sixth grade that are enrolled in Brandon Schools. Seventh and Eighth graders at Brandon Middle School should play for the Middle School team and are not eligible to play for the Brandon Jr. Blackhawks. Newcomers, age 10 and 11, that would normally be eligible for the Jr. Varsity will also be considered for the Varsity, pending NYFL approval, to provide more opportunities for in-District children.
If it is determined that a minimum, competitive roster can’t be filled, BJB will not field the Varsity program.
The Gratitude Campaign
The Gratitude Campaign is a movement to show everyone a way to say "Thank You" to our servicemen and women when the opportunity allows but words escape us. Click on the picture to go to the website.
Odds and Ends
