Week 3 - Field Changes, Sideline Cheer & Concessions Dibs Canceled

As we have explained before, not every team in our conference is as fortunate as we are to have a beautiful permanent field like Hampshire Middle School.  Therefore we have to be flexible whenever needed to accomodate other programs with their scheduling needs.  This week most of our teams will be playing Calumet City, who earlier this week were forced to change their field to Veterans Park .  The remaining home games are being moved to neutral Drake Field since they were originally meant to be away games.  All Week 3 games are now being played on SATURDAY 9/9/2023

With the move from HMS to Drake Field, our sideline cheer program has been canceled for Week 3.  It is not customary for a visiting team to bring cheerleaders with to away games in youth programs.  But don't worry - our Jr Whip-Purs Cheer squads will be bringing the spirit and enthusiasm to our sidelines for Week 4 Homecoming.   

Likewise, with the move from HMS to Drake Field we will no longer be doing concessions.  The only Dibs available for this weekend will be the MPR for each game.  All volunteers that signed up have been notified of the cancellation via email.
