Completed forms should be mailed to: Hotshots Basketball / P.O. Box 851862 / UNIFORM AGREEMENT Player Name: Uniform Number: The Hotshots player and his parent(s) hereby agree to purchase and accept a set of Hotshots Basketball uniforms for use in the 2011 basketball season with the understanding they are responsible for proper use. If renting a uniform, the parent understands that the uniform is the sole property of the Hotshots Basketball Club and agrees to replace the uniform if damaged or lost. A player may have to sit out for a game if not wearing proper uniform attire (coach s discretion). IMPORTANT NOTE: These uniforms are only to be worn during the official Hotshots Basketball games by the player to whom they were issued. No uniform or piece of a uniform is to be worn for practices, home/school activities, hanging out, or at any other time. They are for game use only. It is very important that the current set of uniforms last Hotshots players at least two more full seasons of game use. Responsibility for the uniforms and any other equipment issued lies solely with the player and parent(s) receiving the items. If any uniform piece is loaned to someone else (including another player of the Hotshots) and becomes damaged, the player and parent(s) are still responsible for the replacement fees. They will have to work out the conflict with the person or player borrowing the uniform and who was in possession of the item when it was damaged, or lost.

Completed forms should be mailed to: Hotshots Basketball / P.O. Box 851862 / ATTENDANCE POLICY The attendance policies are designed to provide a fair and objective measurement and a determination of players overall participation, commitment, and responsibility. An attendance record is kept for all games and practices. The attendance records are used in decisions concerning tournament eligibility. As a member of this organization, all players and parents should carefully read these policies to understand their responsibilities from the beginning. Excuse Procedure: All excuses, for absences, lateness, or tardiness, are to be e-mailed or a call made to any coach within 24 hours of the game or practice in order to be considered for an excuse. Any absence a player knows of in advance must be submitted as soon as possible (i.e. a wedding, family reunion, etc.) to the Head Coach. Illness and Injury: If a player is very sick and is unable to attend practice, a call or an e-mail to a coach must be given as soon as possible. All players are required to be on time for the pre-game warm-up and must be present for the entire basketball, game (unless excused due to illness or injury, or coach is aware). A player is considered late, when any player is not in position ready to play when the coach is starting practice. If a player is late, they may have to run laps, do push ups, suicides, etc. (coach s discretion). Parents please be prompt in picking up your son from practices and games. Attendances for assigned games are mandatory (unless prior arrangements are made with the Head Coach). All players must be ready to play in uniform 30 min before game time, unless otherwise notified. If a player is not at the game by the time the team, starts warming up he may not get to play in the game (unless prior arrangements are made). Attendance is very important. We will make every attempt for each child to get playing time in a game. This is why practices will be vital. We will be discussing strategies and game plans in each practice for the upcoming game. Therefore, if a player is not at practice for any reason, he will miss these instructions, which will make it difficult to be able to play in the next game. For this reason, we will be implementing the policy that if a practice is missed, the player will not be able to participate in the upcoming game. If the player misses practices or games repeatedly (unless the Head Coach gives prior approval) than the player will be suspended from the team. Player Signature Date Parent(s) Signature Date
