Class of 2027
This is the year to show up — for every game, every tradition, every moment that marks the end of a four-year journey. Here's your guide to the senior year and how to make the most of it.
How the Year Unfolds
The senior year runs from spring through the banquet. Here are the milestones that make it — the ones you'll want to be present for.
Spring Meetings & Decisions
The April 21 Parent Meeting kicks off the senior year logistics. This is when media guide tributes and senior-specific decisions start. Attend if you can — lots of information lands here.
Last Spring Ball
Spring practice April 29 – May 15 is the final spring your senior will wear an Indy jersey. The Spring Game is scheduled for May 15!
Media Day
Individual senior photos, team photos, position groups, and headshots for the media guide. Scheduled date: July 31
Banners Go Up, Season Begins
Senior banners go up on the fence before the season opener. Senior parents sign up to help put them up Friday mornings and take them down after games.
Friday Morning Seniors w/ Dad's Breakfasts Begin
Senior Friday morning breakfasts with Dads — guest speakers, community, and a weekly ritual before game day. Sign-up for hosting and speakers opens at the spring meeting.
Senior Night
The emotional centerpiece of the year. Your senior walks out with family for pre-game recognition. Balloons, banners, the walk-out, the tribute video, the hug at midfield. Senior info collection happens in the weeks leading up — we need names, stats, family details, post-grad plans. Watch for the form.
Homecoming Week
Senior class leads the homecoming float build. A week of traditions packed into five days.
Final Regular-Season Game
Last game of the regular season. Depending on how the season plays out, this might also be your senior's last game in an Indy jersey. Come ready to cheer, come ready for emotions.
Playoffs (If We Qualify)
If the team advances, the season extends into November. Bonus weeks are gift weeks — every extra game is one more memory.
The Banquet
End of the road. Player awards, senior recognition, tribute videos, and a community gathering that closes four years. Seniors receive their gift. Family members are welcome. Plan to be there.
Capture the Moments
Ways to mark your senior's year — some paid, some free, some optional. Prices shown as ranges; final amounts confirmed at sign-up.
Media Guide Tribute Page
A dedicated page in the season's media guide with photos, a message, and your senior's story. Full page, half page, or quarter page options.
Senior Headshot & Bio
Every senior gets a headshot and a brief bio in the media guide. These photos are taken during Media Day in July. No sign-up needed — your senior just needs to show up.
Personalized Senior Banner
A custom banner that hangs on the fence at every home game. Your senior's photo, number, and name. Goes up before the opener and stays through senior night.
Fun Senior Picture Day
A group senior photo event — poses, props, friends, fun shots you won't get at Media Day. Details finalized closer to the session.
Mom's Jersey
A custom jersey with your senior's number — for the mom in the stands every Friday night. Optional, ordered together so the whole senior-mom crew matches.
Big Heads
Oversized cutouts of your senior's face — hilarious, mortifying, an instant photo op. A parent-section classic.
Senior Buttons
Personalized pin-on buttons for family members to wear on Senior Night. Grandparents especially love these.
Show Up for These
The rituals that make senior year senior year. Most of these only happen once — be there.
Breakfasts with Dads
Senior players and their dads gather Friday mornings before home games. Guest speakers rotate — coaches, alumni, community leaders. One of the traditions seniors remember most.
Sign-up opens: spring parent meeting. Hosts and speakers organized in advance.
Senior Dinner Nights
Seniors gather mid-week at a local restaurant — builds the brotherhood, gives them time outside of practice to just be kids. Parents host or meet separately.
Organized by: senior class lead parents. Watch GroupMe for the week's location.
Social / Pool Party
A casual kickoff for senior families — pool, food, time to connect before the season gets intense. Hosted by a senior family volunteer.
Host volunteer needed. Reach out if your family can host.
Homecoming Float Build
Senior class leads the homecoming float. Build happens at a senior family's garage or driveway in the days leading up to homecoming. Pizza, music, and teenagers on ladders.
Location host needed. Build week announced in early October.
Banner Setup & Takedown
Senior banners go up on the fence before every home game and come down after. It's a rotating sign-up among senior parents — takes 15 minutes, done in pairs.
Sign-up sheet: circulated via GroupMe at the start of the season.
The Walk-Out
Pre-game recognition where seniors are announced and walk out with their family members. Moms, dads, siblings, grandparents — whoever your senior wants by their side.
Info form goes out early October. We need family names, stats, post-grad plans, and photos.
Action Items for Senior Parents
The things that need your attention — forms, sign-ups, and decisions that shape your senior year.
Attend the April 21 Parent Meeting
The kickoff meeting where senior-specific logistics get announced. Media guide deadlines, banner details, and sign-ups start here.
Order Your Media Guide Tribute
Full, half, or quarter page tribute in the season media guide. Order early — photo quality is better when you have time to select the right one.
Show Up for Media Day
Your senior needs to attend Media Day for their headshot, team photo, and individual shots. Indy polo for the headshot — confirm with coach beforehand.
Sign Up for Banner Setup Shifts
Fence banners go up every home game Friday and come down after. Rotating sign-up among senior parents — takes 15 minutes in pairs.
Host a Friday Breakfast
Senior Friday breakfasts need hosts and guest speakers. Sign up for a week that works for your family.
Submit Senior Night Information
We'll send a form asking for family members walking out with your senior, stats, post-grad plans, photos for tribute videos. Deadline is strict — late info may not make the program.
Volunteer for Homecoming Float
We need a location host and materials coordinators for the float build. Seniors lead the build; parents make it possible.
RSVP for the Banquet
Headcount matters for seating, food, and senior recognition timing. Confirmation goes out in early December.
We're Here for Every Moment
Senior year moves fast. If there's something you need that isn't here, or you want to get involved with organizing senior events — reach out. This class is only senior once.
