Some other fun things to look forward to:

Equipment Swap - Have some gear you are looking to get rid of or need some new gear for the season? See below for more details and instructions!

Jersey Fittings - We will have jersey fittings and will be taking orders for jerseys during the season kick off party. We will use the same jerseys as last year for Squirt - High School, so you will only need to get fitted/ordered if you are a first year Squirt, a new player or if you have outgrown your previous jersey. All 8U players will get new jerseys this season and will need to be fitted!

This is going to be a fun event! We look forward to seeing all our great families again and kicking off a great season!

Do you have extra gear you would like to sell or does your player need some new gear for the upcoming season? The Jr. Mavs will be hosting an Equipment Sale during our Season Kick Off Party on August 24th in the party room at Centerpoint Community Ice.

If you are interested in shopping, please stop by the party room from 12:00 - 3:00 pm to find some great deals (cash only, please). If you are interested in selling, please see the details and rules below.

All items can be dropped off in the morning, between 11:00 - 12:00 pm on August 24th. There is no limit to the number of items you can drop off, and may include youth and adult sizes. Please bring with you:

• Items to sell with tags attached
