Hello Parents,

 

I am Kecia Rhiannon Tomlinson, I go by Rhiannon and I will be one of the coaches for your child’s 4U Basketball Team!

 

Here is the Parent’s Role in Youth Sports Video to help prepare you for the season: https://training.ymca.net/parents/

 

Here is the Winter Developmental League Informational Packet from the YMCA:

Team Communication:

I will use the GroupMe App for most communications during the season, it is the easiest and fastest way to communicate. But you can text me at any time at 405-802-3762. I added the parents that were listed on the roster to the GroupMe chat. But if your child has another parent or

guardian that wants to be in the chat as well please add them or share the link with them.

Team Snacks:

The kids love the post game snack/drink! Once the schedule is released, I will set up a drink and snack schedule that you can sign up for. We would love for everyone to sign up for one game. But if you are not able that is completely understandable. We will make sure all games are covered.

 

Team/Individual Photos

An official photographer for the YMCA Sports Programs will be provided to all teams. Pictures will be taken on game days. Once I know what day our picture day is I will let the team know. We will need to arrive 30-45 minutes before whatever time our game is scheduled for that day. But we will work out the specifics once we know the date.

 

Looking forward to a great season!!!

- Coach Tomlinson
