I usually try to get to the site at least an hour before game time.
I usually know if I am on the dish or bases. So I get dressed then go to the field
and tell the HC that I am here.

Similar to Allan for the big games and like Steve said most of the time.

First of all, I am conditioned by Southern California navigating to be over an hour early, just because of contingencies. So, I'm never struggling to gear up in a hurry, and I'm never hitting the field later than the 15 minute mark. Now, as far as my partners go ... If I don't see my partner before the half-hour mark, and I even begin to put on a piece of plate gear, then I work the plate.

Yes for all college and all HS playoffs.

Yes for all HS if I get there in time (As CoachJM knows, it's sometimes tough to be "early" for a 4:00 game.)

I foregor this if I'm running "late" and / or the field is far from the parking lot (Lake Park, South Elgin come to mind)

Yes, I always let mgt know I am there, but usually by pulling Tim C's Equipment trailer with a flashing red light on top of it!

HS: Always
College: The attendant who lets us in the locker room alerts the skipper that we've arrived.

if you have a school that lets you change in the locker room...LOL A ot of the schools out here in Missouri and all of the JUCO school i did in Northern Cali did not have a locker room for us... So i did go and tell the coach I was here. Most of the HS games I did not say anything.
