Outside FOOD and DRINK ~ Some changes have been made within the faciliity due to spectators not abinding by the food and drink policies the Forum has allowed us to follow for our volleyball tournaments. The Sports Forum has a strick NO Food and Drink policy as posted on their front doors, however they have allowed our families to bring in LIMITED food and drink in personal back packs or back pack coolers as stated in our tournament information every week. Teams have taken advantage of the Sports Forum's kindness and have continued to bring in wagons full of food and drink for their team. We very much understand, and also experience the long day in the gym. We also understand the memories your families are wanting to create for their players. We have gone to battle for you to allow the limited food and drink policy, but due to the excessive amounts of food and drink still being brought into the facility some changes have been made. (1) NO wagons will be allowed in the facility at all. (2) NO cases of drinks, chips, bagels, sandwiches etc.....only in the players BOOKBAG will the food be allowed in. (3) NO Tables, CrockPot or other electronic food devices will be allowed in the building. (4) NO Rolling Coolers at all, Big or Small will be allowed in the facility. BOOKBAGS only please and thank you. You May leave the facility and return with food and/or drink from a restaurant close by if you choose not to buy from the concession stand, however, NO Boxes of Pizza, or Large bags of sandwiches and chips ec. will be allowed in the facility. We don't want to be the food police, we just want to respect the facility and support the cocession stand being provided for us. We have had such an awesome season watch amazing volleyball with little down time. Please do pack in your player bag/back pack cooler your fruit, snacks, drinks etc. that you will want to grab and go throughout the day. We look forward to hosting your teams and families this Sunday! at the Sports Forum. If you have any questions or need anything from me prior to Sunday, please reach out anytime.
