Athletic Department Information www.grchristianeagles.com Staff: Jason Heerema ([email protected]) – Athletic Director Kevin Broene ([email protected]) – Assistant Athletic Director and Event Coordination Dick VanderKamp ([email protected]) – Event & Facility Coordination Dan Cooke ([email protected]) – Media Specialist Patty Liverance ([email protected]) – Editor, Eagle Sports Report How do I see the game and practice schedules for my son’s/daughter’s team? The coach is the only resource for practice schedules, so contact them directly. The coach will also give each family a game schedule. In addition to that schedule you can go to www.grchristianeagles.com and find your team and click on schedules. These schedules will also have a map to the location of the event. How do advanced ticket sales work? Advanced ticket sales are available for select games throughout the year. Home football and basketball are the most common advanced sales. For advanced sales, tickets are $3 if purchased at school ($5 if purchased at the gate). Parents and kids may buy advanced tickets for the discounted price. They are ONLY available for purchase on the day of the event. How do I get transportation information for games/practices? It is an expectation that each coach will communicate with the team about how athletes are being transported to and from games. You may also check the GRCHS morning announcements each day. What is the ESR? The Eagle Sports Report is a daily email that is sent to those who sign up with Patty Liverance ([email protected]) that gives a report on the previous day’s athletic events. The ESR can also be found on www.grchristianeagles.com under “Eagle HQ” as “Eagle Sports Report.” How will I be Notified of Practice and Game Cancellations Due to Weather? We will make weather cancellations before 2pm each day whenever possible. There will be an alert posted at www.grchristianeagles.com and at the main office for students to see. Do you have Athletic Events Passes? We have two types of passes: 1) Parent Pass: Free to the parent of an athlete for free entry to all home events for their sport and level ONLY. Pass is not good for invitational tournaments or MHSAA playoff events. 2) All-Sport Pass: Available to anyone and allows free entry into any GRCHS home athletic event, excluding invitational tournaments and the MHSAA playoffs. Single adult pass is $60, single student pass is $50, and a family pass is $125. For the family pass, each person living in your house receives their own pass. How do I get Information about the Eagle Athletic Boosters? Email the Eagle Athletic Booster’s President, John Konynenbelt at [email protected].
