Interscholastic Sports
In order to try out for an interscholastic sports team (modified, freshman, JV or varsity), a valid physical must be submitted and the student-athlete must be registered via Sportz Ventures at least one (1) week prior to the start of tryouts for that season. The online registration will be reviewed by the School Nurse and then signed by the School Physician. The names of all students declared medically qualified will be submitted to the coaches as approved.
Do not wait until the last week before tryouts to register, it may not be processed in time for the first day! Registration will be closed from March 9-14 to allow the Nurse’s Office a process period. The registration will open back up on March 14, but student athletes are not allowed to participate until the registration is processed and approved, which takes 2-3 days.

Middle School students registering for the Advanced Placement Process (APP) or Modified sports will be able to register starting 2/28/2022. Middle school students who would like to tryout for a HS level sport and go through through the APP must submit an email of interest to the Athletic Director by 2/25/2022 with a coach’s recommendation to be considered for the Advanced Placement Process (APP).
