CAL POLO BOYS / 2010 SEASON "HELL WEEK"
GROUP LINE-UP and SCHEDULE
Group designations are NOT indicative of final squad designations (Varsity, JV, Frosh Soph). For Varsity, with the exception of Seniors (who are required by league rules to be on Varsity), all positions are open. For JV, aside from Juniors (who cannot be on Frosh Soph), again, all remaining positions are open. For JV in particular, we have an excess amount of players who could play at that level, a number that significantly exceeds the optimum squad number. To put it in simple terms, those who want a spot on JV and Varsity, will have to work hard for it. At the JV and Varsity level, your grade level has NOTHING to do with your position or playtime. Your effort, mental toughness, and performance during Hell Week will help me determine the best squad for you as a player, and the best place for you that will benefit the team as a whole. Those of you whose attendance and performance during summer season was incomplete, will have to work harder than others to gain my support. You want to impress me, and earn a place on a higher-level squad, well, now is the time to do it. Based upon performance, I will also have players switch from one group to another during the course of Hell Week.
There are changes to the original Hell Week dates, due to the change of school start date, and the later-than-expected Hawaiian Invitational Tournament for our Black Thunder club. Hell Week will actually run about a week and a half (we'll call it "hell week plus!")

TUESDAY, 8/17 – PRE-HELL WEEK DINNER/PLAYER AND PARENT MEETING (mandatory)
WEDNESDAY, 8/18 – FIRST DAY, HELL WEEK, TWO-A-DAYS PRACTICES (Wed thru Sat)
