TRAVEL, HOTELS AND MEALS guide
Travel
CGUC will send out an email regarding a time to meet at the High School to travel to the tournament. Players whose parent(s) will not be attending the tournament must notify the Club so arrangements may be made for the player to ride with another player’s parent(s). Players are to ride with the same driver throughout the weekend. Please note that no player is allowed to drive his/her vehicle to or from out of state tournaments.
Key items to review before you travel:
1. Is the tournament location in a different time zone?
2. Does travel route to tournament include toll roads requiring exact change?
Hotel
All players are to be at the hotel to check-in no later than 8:00 p.m. the night before an out of state tournament. Players’ room will be reserved and paid for by the Club. A Club representative will be in the hotel lobby from 8:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. to provide arriving players with room assignments and/or a room key. 4 players will be assigned to each room. Each room will be given 2 keys to share.
Coaches or Team Captains will notify you of a team meeting at the hotel on Friday and Saturday night. This meeting is to remind players of expectations such as conduct, bedtimes and the time the team will be leaving the hotel the next day. Text your parents with the time they are required to leave the hotel each morning.
Hotel Expectations:
Meals
Players and responsible for the cost of any purchased food or snacks.
Breakfast Saturday & Sunday Provided by hotel as part of hotel room cost.
