The Objectives of the Newark Jr. Reds are as follows:

- Improve the physical health of our children with training, conditioning, and exercise that emphasizes participation and safety.
- Enhance the physiological well being of our children by reinforcing positive self-image, fairness, and participation.
- Use teamwork, sportsmanship, appropriate behavior, and common decency to guide our children in social skills.
- Help our children to understand and appreciate the value of personal effort and dedication to team effort.

The Newark Jr. Reds will practice and play in rain or shine or in the heat or cold.

If the weather conditions are questionable at the start of practice, the Board Members will determine if practice will be cancelled within the first 20 minutes of any scheduled practice.

If it begins to thunder or lightning at practices will be stopped immediately and the players will go to the dugouts at Colburn Park and Cheerleaders will go to the main Building at Colburn Park for cover. After a 30 minute delay with no thunder and lightning we will resume practice. If threatening weather conditions continue, the Newark Jr. Reds Board Members will make the decision whether to cancel practice. Please be sure your coach has a valid phone number to reach you in the event you need to pick up your child early.You are responsible for picking up your child following such cancellations.
