2. CONNECT WITH US ON TEAMSNAP
One of the most important tools that we use as a team to communicate practice times, cancellations, races, gatherings, etc., is an app called “TeamSnap.” You may already be familiar with it, if you have been involved in other sports teams. You will be invited to join the team’s account once we have received your registration.
