📬Don't miss an email

Check Your Profile Settings

  • Make sure your account is set to receive emails from Hopkins Football.


Check Your Spam Folder

  • If you were expecting an email and didn’t receive it, look in your spam or junk folder.


Use the Web Version of Your Email

  • Some apps (like Apple Mail or Android email apps) don’t fully sync spam folders. Log in directly to your email provider’s website to check.


Verify Your Email Address

  • If you recently updated your email, you must click the link in the verification email to confirm it. You won’t receive any messages until this step is completed.
  • Add Hopkins Football to your contacts.
  • Adding our email address to your contacts helps prevent messages from being marked as spam.
