Parents and Players, this email contains a lot of important information so that we can get started prepping for the upcoming summer and season. Please keep this email handy but it will also be published on the blog for reference.
MOST IMPORTANT!!
Player Pack
If you have not completed this form, please do so ASAP. We had 76 out of the 120+ players registered on WarRoom complete it already. Please complete the form even if you do not want a player pack. *Also if you are no longer planning on playing please let Coach Freck know directly and you will be removed from the list (jfreckleton@dsdmail.net)
We will touch on these certain subjects so that you can reference it easier without getting overloaded with information. The links for the signups will be at the end of the email.

- Team Breakfast Assignments
- Senior Night
- Recruiting
- Tournaments - We are quickly approaching our 7v7 camps that will be at BYU and Utah in the next few weeks. BYU will be June 7th and Utah will be June 14th. We will need some equipment donations of tents and coolers as well as some parents to help sit with the individual groups and just make sure that the players and coaches needs are being taken care of.
- Fundraising -
- Discount Cards - We will be having the boys sell the discount cards like we have in the past and those will be distributed on June 12th. I suggest your players start pre-selling these to help let them know if any additional fundraisers need to be addressed for players. $17 of each card sale will go to the players.
- Saranoni Fundraiser - On June 21st we will be holding a Saranoni Fundraiser in the Bountiful High School parking lot. We need some parents to be able to come and sit with the boys and each boy will take 45 minutes each to help us that day. We will need to be there around 10:30am to help set up and then be packed up by 6:30pm. There is no marketing on Saranoni's part so we need to share the information as much as possible. We will be receiving a portion of the proceeds and other schools have had success with this.
- Advertising Opportunities - The players have the opportunity to raise funds by going business-to-business and use it as a marketing option for banners as well as sponsorships for the Golf Scramble. See the flyers below. Half of the sales of the banners will go towards the players fees and $100 for golf sponsorships will go to the players (except white sponsorships).
- Little League Camp - We will need to have a few parents help if you'll be available on those days. This will be held on June 23-24. Easy.
- Golf Scramble - There are little things where we need all the hands we can get and this is one of them. We need some to sit at holes with the boys, we need some that will pass out water and spray sunscreen on our boys, we need some that will help with getting sponsors. WHATEVER YOU CAN DO, WE NEED YOUR HELP! If you own or know someone who may have a business who would be willing to donate or sponsor, email us at bhsfootballredhawks@gmail.com. This will take place earlier this year than previous years on July 11th. Any gifts players collect there will be a raffle prize drawing for the players.
- SUU Summer Camp - We need to find out if your boys will be able to make it. Camp is from July 14-17th and it's very important your boys can be there. Camp fees are $375 and they are due before we leave.
- Red and Gray Game - This is another one that we will need all hands on deck. We'd like to ask parents to sign up for a small window to help with the concession stands. We want you to all still be able to watch the game but we will need some small help with both supplies and concessions. This game will be a week before the regular season on August 8th at Bountiful High School.
- Team Breakfast Assignments - The breakfasts will be held during varsity class so if you have a Frosh player, just be aware that these are for them and the younger boys don’t always attend. This year we are trying something new. Many hands make light work . . . we are asking that one parent per player sign up to help with one team breakfast & gatorade for that evening. Breakfast teams will consist of 8 parents. Team breakfasts are held each Friday (unless otherwise noted) at 8 am. Each breakfast team is responsible to provide all food items and at least 4 parents to assist that morning with set up, serving, and cleaning up. Paper products will be provided. Please plan on breakfast for 75 players & coaches. Each breakfast team will have a lead parent assigned to organize and contact the other parents to decide menu items, assignments, and other logistical details. If there is a need for grills, additional funds, or supplies please reach out to one of the football team moms.
- Senior Night - This is another chaotic event so we ask those who ARE NOT senior parents to please sign up and help so that senior mothers will be able to help. This will be held at our last home game of the season on October 15th after the football game. I've included the link to the questionnaires that we also need senior parents and students to fill out.
- Recruiting - We are working on helping those students who do want to play at another level but we need to know who is interested. Please understand that just because you want to play doesn't always mean that you will play and play at the level you hope for. We want the boys to be focused on school as a top priority and we will work with our connections to help boys who show that they can play at the next level. Fill out the questionnaire and we will work on setting up an effective program.
