Practice Schedule
Typically, you will dedicate around 8-10 hours per week to the team for practices. Mandatory practices are held three nights a week Tuesdays 6:30 PM - 9 PM, Thursdays, 6:30 PM - 8:30 PM, and Sundays 4:00 PM - 7:00PM. Students must work with their academic advisors to accommodate this schedule. Additional LIFT workouts are required twice a week. This commitment must be taken seriously, and most members find it completely manageable to be a part of the team and excel academically.
