Athletic Field Day

 

Athletic Field Day Dress Code

Just as ACA provides guidelines for dress code in the classroom, it is important to project the image of professionalism in our athletic attire as well.

  • All shirts worn for athletic practices and field day should be modest, loose fitting, in good repair
    • (no holes, torn sleeves, etc.), should be worn either tucked in or well over the waist of the pants/shorts if not tucked in.
  • No midriffs may be shown.
    • T-shirts are preferred—no tank tops, camisoles, or sports bras may be worn as outer-garments. Sleeveless shirts may be worn if modest.
  • Pants/shorts should be modest and in good repair
    • We discourage students from wearing tight yoga pants. If you put on leggings, be sure to wear a skirt or shorts over the leggings.  We suggest loose fitted shorts and tops.
    • (no holes, torn sleeves, etc.) No short-shorts or long baggy shorts may be worn. No boxers or undergarments may be visible.
  • Attire should be free of inappropriate messages.
    • Sports team logos (e.g., Diamondbacks, Notre Dame), and apparel brand names (e.g., Adidas, Nike) are acceptable, provided they do not make inappropriate allusions. These guidelines also apply to sweatshirts and jackets that students may wear.
  • Footwear should be athletic in nature
    • no sandals, open-toed, or platform shoes. Hats and sunscreen may be appropriate if the students will be in the sun. Hat styles should follow the same guidelines as above.

 

If we feel any student is not adhering to these guidelines, parents will be called to bring a change of clothes or AFD participation will not be granted.
