BLADENSBURG MUSTANGS FOOTBALL

"Practice does not make perfect. Only perfect practice makes perfect."
-Vince Lombardi

Mustang points show off your off-season work ethic and dedication to your personal improvement in the name of our football team.  At two different points during the off-season, team members with the highest point totals, at that time, will have priority of choices regardless of being a Junior, Sophomore, or Freshman.  In addition, Spirit Packs ($100) must be purchased for all varsity players as they include mandatory game-day apparel.  Once they start accumulating, check back every 2-3 weeks to see where you stand with your

*Students who transfer into the school will have a modified point system.  Considerations can be made for special situations deemed necessary by Coach Tyler but happen as a rarity.

**Mustang Points have no impact on playing time, meaning that just because someone has the most points means they will be a starter or get more playing time than someone with less points.

***125 points are necessary for the opportunity to play in a varsity game and 75 points are necessary to have the opportunity to play in a JV game

*Students who do not reach the point total by the start of the season will be allowed to practice, however the cannot play in the game until they have reached their perspective point total.
