Many local school systems have a spring break the week of April 1-5, 2024.
We’ll keep our regular practice schedule the week of March 25th before spring break starts. We’ll adjust our schedule for the schools’ spring break week, and the weekends before (March 30-31) and after (April 6-7) the school break.
Spring Break 2024 activity poll:
NTH doesn’t schedule regular Academy game day schedules during the weekends leading into or following spring break. But if there are enough players in town and available for spring break soccer, we’ll offer an adjusted schedule.
If your daughter is available to attend any of the spring break events listed below, please respond via e-mail. For example, if your daughter is available for the first event only, reply Event 1 Yes. If your daughter is available for multiple events, reply once and include all available event numbers, for example Events 2 and 4 yes. Our spring break events are free and optional (come if you can).
