BMS Sports Equipment and Uniforms<br />
As part of the BMS sports experience, team uniforms are provided. Students are expected to<br />
properly care for and return their uniform in a timely manner after the season ends. To ensure<br />
that uniform standards are met, all garments underneath BMS uniforms, if worn, need to be all<br />
white. This includes long or short sleeve under shirts and compression shirts or shorts, for all<br />
sports including; volleyball, football, basketball, wrestling and track. All team members<br />
should make an effort to look similar. All football equipment will be provided except for girdle<br />
shorts and socks, due to the personal nature of these items. A limited number of girdles<br />
will be available, if necessary. The football socks should be plain dark green and can be purchased<br />
on your own or through the school for $5. Please help make BMS proud with sharp<br />
looking athletic teams!<br />
