Important Information!

My advice to parents and students.... DO NOT PROCRASTINATE!!!!! Get everything taken care of before the tryout date. Too many times I have witnessed students not being able to try out because they didn't get their physical before tryouts started or paperwork wasn't submitted in time. All information needed for trying out can be found on this page. Read through all of this page!!!!! The following is covered on this page:
