Equipment fitting will take place on May 21st and May 23, 2013 at the Charleswood Broncos Clubhouse.

EQUIPMENT FORMS

To make fitting go a little quicker, the equipment form can be downloaded from the left side and filled out PRIOR to coming to the clubhouse.  If you could take a few minutes to fill out the form, it will help our coaches get the players fitted and the process move a little faster. 

This year, we are splitting the teams into two dates.  The teams and fittings will be as follows: 

May 21, 2013 from 6:30 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.   - Terminator and Atom Players 

Players with last names starting with A-L - 6:30 p.m. to 7:15 p.m.

We recognize that if you have more than one player per family these times may not work for you.  We will do our best to accommodate all families. 

GIRDLES 

This year, because of concerns over hygiene, the Broncos will not be supplying girdles for the players.  We will be selling our existing stock of girdles on a first come first serve basis for $10.00.  This includes the girdle, hip and tail pads. 

New girdles will also be available for sale at our apparel shop and they will cost between $25 - $50 depending on girdle. 

APPAREL 

We will have a number of purple and gold practice jerseys and other apparel at the clubhouse available for sale during the equipment fittings.

The equipment bond for 2013 is $200.00 and the cheque must be post-dated for December 1, 2013. A volunteer bond in the amount of $200.00 and dated for September 30, 2013 must be provided by EACH FAMILY. This cheque will not be cashed if the expected volunteer hours (described elsewhere) for each family are completed. Families who do not wish to volunteer have the option of paying the $200.00.
