🏀 GLADIATOR GIRLS BASKETBALL — LET'S GO! 🏀

Attention Johns Creek families! 📣 If your daughter is thinking about playing high school basketball this season, now is the time to get ready.

📅 FIRST DAY OF TRYOUTS: Monday, October 19

📝 Before she steps on the floor: every athlete must have a completed physical uploaded to RankOne. No physical on file means no participation — please handle this early so nobody misses day one. ⏰

💪 What to expect at the high school level:
🔹 Significant competition — expectation levels increase, and players face a much broader range of ages and skill sets
🔹 Increased commitment — off-season training, holidays, and summer

📲 Want to stay in the loop? Scan the QR code on the flyer to complete the program contact form and get tryout details, practice info, and season updates sent straight to you. ✅
Tag a Gladiator who needs to see this! 👀 Share with a friend, and let's fill that gym. 🔥

🐎 TOGETHER. ONE PROGRAM. ONE GOAL. 🖤💛

Our seniors are scrambling to get their essays going---many have not started---and so it will be helpful if you could post the following sentences above the flyer I have attached. I'll be grateful if you can check that my bio and registration links work.

SMALL GROUP COLLEGE ESSAY LAUNCH

Is your senior struggling to get the common app essay off the ground or isn't sure if it works? Students will study essays accepted by Ivies and identify seed topics for their own personal statement under guided brainstorm in this interactive lab. Participants may share essay drafts. Good is not enough! Register for Aug 15th or 22nd. Early Action deadline is October 15. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfhlR_tTYQBMeTNxxu5vcucdXmYPR56-QmDnY_gUiqxpbeBHg/viewform
