🎒 Come Prepared Every Day 🚰

Beginning the first day of athletics, students should bring athletic clothing, a water bottle, and the appropriate sport-specific gear every day, Monday through Thursday. Lockers are available for storing equipment, but students should arrive prepared for activity each day. Uniforms will be distributed after tryouts.

👟 Athletic Dress

Athletic attire should include shorts, leggings, sweatpants, T-shirts, and sweatshirts, along with proper athletic footwear and weather-appropriate layers. Students should bring their Brookwood-issued practice pinnie each day.

School-appropriate logos and graphics are permitted, as long as they are consistent with Brookwood's values. Students should also have all required sport-specific safety equipment, including mouthguards and goggles when applicable.

🏅 On Game Days 🥅

Students should bring both their uniform top and bottom. If wearing an undershirt, it must be black and either short-sleeved or a tank top.

Students may wear their Brookwood athletic jersey top to school on game days and will be considered in dress code. Please remember that jeans, khakis, button-downs, polos, other non-athletic clothing, and jewelry are not permitted during athletics.

We’re looking forward to a great fall season filled with teamwork, growth, and plenty of Brookwood spirit. Go Brookwood!
