Becker Soccer Kits
For the new parents and athletes - 'kits' are our Jerseys and shorts. Currently, we have enough kits to outfit our Varsity, JV, and JH teams. However, we DO NOT supply the socks for our team. Varsity players (11-12, some 10th graders) need to have Black and White socks that fully cover the shin guards. JV and JH need to have Navy and White socks for their matches.
Mateo's soccer store (http://www.soccermateo.com/) in Monticello carries our socks for a very reasonable price. We encourage our players to shop local - and Mateos gets the job done. It is a small store, but he can order anything you need soccer-wise and have it in store within two days.
VARSITY KITS
In 2013 we were able to secure a deal with NIKE to purchase a new kit set that will be available for 4 years. We will be using these kits for the seasons 2013-2017 and beyond.
The Soccer players have the option to purchase their own kits - this option is available at the spring meeting.
***We have not received all of our 2014 Nike Order, so we are 'checking' out our Varsity Kits to our players. Once the full kits arrive, we will get them out to the athletes once they return the school kits.***
JUNIOR VARSITY (Grades 9-11)
The JV squad will still play in the same Navy/Whites that Becker Soccer has used for the last 7 years. Even though you may have purchased a new VARSITY KIT - there is a chance that they will not be able to wear it during this season's matches. However, they are encouraged to wear these to school on the days that we have a match. We are currently phasing out the existing Navy/White kits worn by the JV in favor of our new Black/White kits. It may take a couple of years - but we expect by 2016 all HS Soccer players will be kitted in the new Black/Whites.
JUNIOR HIGH (Grades 7-8)
The JH will remain the current Navy/Whites for some time. We have almost 100 kits in this style - and it is still offered by NIKE. We do not allow the JH to keep their kits year to year.
Winter League (9-12)
We will be using the same style of tee shirt come November. If your son has the same tee from last year, it will still be allowed for the foreseeable future. What we will be doing this year, however, is offering a long tee or a new color front. Same emblem, same font number.
***WE ENCOURAGE OUR ATHLETES NOT TO HAND OUT THEIR JERSEYS TO STUDENTS NOT INVOLVED IN SOCCER!***
This is a popular idea for Foosball as that sport only plays 1 game a week. With Soccer playing upwards of 4 matches in a 7 day period, it does not bode well for the athlete to keep his kit straight.
We want our soccer players packing their Kit each night - match night or not. We want them to be ready to play. We want our student-athletes to be self-reliant. They should pack their gear each night - match or practice. Kits, cleats, shin guards, running shoes, dinner.
