Dear Sugar Bowl Academy Community,
What a start to the season! Kudos to our athletes, families, and staff; you all brought the grit, grace, and courage. We are back to school on Monday with our Winter Term students joining us for their first day this school year. Students and parents, please check the message sent earlier today, Sunday, for school details. For everyone, keep reading these weekly updates for the latest on school and team information. It has been great to see so many of you at Sugar Bowl over the past couple of weeks, constant reminders of how special our community is. Looking forward to the week and weekend ahead!
Sincerely,
Stephen
Executive Director
Athletics
SBA Hoodies and Jackets
If you do not yet have a hoodie or a jacket for your athlete, please complete the SBA Team Gear Form if you haven’t already. We will be ordering additional hoodies this week and want to ensure correct sizing for all athletes.
Pass, Jacket, and Hoodie Pickup
We will be distributing athlete season passes, team jackets, and hoodies and t-shirts next Friday, January 9 - Sunday, January 10 at the school. If you have not already gotten your athlete’s items, plan to stop at the school before going to Village Hall to meet your team. Season passes for athletes will only be available for pick up at the school.
Liftborne Gear Available on SBA Gear Swap
If you have been interested in getting a Liftborne race suit or other gear, we have a few families looking to sell items they ordered that didn’t work out for their athletes. You can find Liftborne gear and other items for sale on the SBA Gear Swap page on Facebook.
Liftborne SBA Gear
Liftborne is accepting additional order for SBA race suits and other team gear. Orders will be shipped directly to your home. If you would like to place an order, please contact admin@sbacademy.org, and we will send you information on placing an order.
