The 7v7 Summer Season 

7 v 7 SUMMER SESSION INFORMATION

SUMMER PRACTICE

Practices, in accordance with AIA rules, will be non-padded and there will be no live tackling. Players should dress appropriately for the weather, but always wearing Ironwood Ridge colors (blue/silver/white t-shirts and shorts or sweats) and cleats. Weightlifting will continue as per usual after practice in the advanced sports conditioning class.
