Fair Share Information

There will be a fair share fee to participate in track again this season.

The fee is $100 and we use it to offset costs of uniforms, team shirts (and
hoodies if we can!), equipment, travel, awards, banquet etc.

We are requesting that all athletes get their fee in by 2/26. 
 
Coach Tiffany has a fundraising opportunity that athletes can participate in to offset their fair share cost. We will be selling coupon books and receiving a $10 profit from each book. If your athlete is interested in fundraising please have them see me in the next week.

Please turn in checks made out to the University of Florida to the front office in an envelope with the athlete’s name and my name on it. 

Other coaches will not accept fair share. Please either give it directly to me or turn it in to the front office.

If a payment plan needs to be set up please speak to me directly.
