Aloha everyone. Breeze here, your friendly neighborhood web guy. I've been w/o internet for a few days, so I am consolidating a few emails all into this announcement:
Dear Coaches:
As a personal request, and if at all possible, please wear only long pants (casual or warm-up) in either a gray or black color on the competition floor of this year's JO National Championship event in Cincinnati, OH. This clothing choice will go best with the Region 1 Polo shirt that you will be given at the meet to wear.
Following link displays a sample of the Coaches Polo Shirt (without logo designs):
All Qualifying Gymnasts will be given a royal blue T-shirt, with a logo design that will definitely define our Region...:-)
Shirts and uniforms will be available for pick-up at the competition site on Wednesday during your designated training times. Upon arrival to the meet site, you will have to ask meet personnel where the pick-up area is for Regional Team clothing.
Thereafter, you will have to call me and make arrangements to pick-up shirts and/or uniforms. Please save my cell phone number <
949-394-5292 > to your phone.
Please be aware that "YOU" or your athlete were responsible to order and provide sizing information at the Regional Championship meet, prior to 12:00pm on Saturday. If you didn't provide shirt sizes for you or you athlete, I then took my best guess and that is what you will get, or possibly no shirt at all, if you didn't submit an order.
See you in Cincinnati, and let's get the job done - and help keep Region One as number One.!
Paul Tickenoff
USAG Region 1 Chair
