Dear Wonderful Navy Families,
Our Navy pep rally was absolutely electric today! The energy was high, the spirit was huge, and our Dolphins are officially ready to take the court tonight.
We canāt wait to see the stands filled with Navy pride! To help our youngest fans feel like part of the action, we spent time today teaching our primary grade students "The Wave."
Practice the Wave at Home!
If you want to do a quick rehearsal before the game, here is the "Dolphin Way" to do the wave:
Watch the Leader: Keep an eye on the person to your left.
The Big Leap: Stand up and throw your arms high as soon as the wave reaches you!
The Smooth Landing: Sit back down quickly so the person next to you can keep it going.
Game Night Reminders
Spirit Wear: Deck the kids out in their best Navy gear!
Arrival: Come early to grab a seat, concessions, and get your cheering voice ready.
Energy: Letās show Crossfield that the Dolphin family is the loudest in the league!
Letās bring that HUGE Navy Spirit to the bleachers tonight. Weāll see you at tip-off!
Jason, Sarah & Kim
