All Middle and Upper School students are invited to attend these opening practices and try out for the winter sports teams. The athletic staff and coaches encourage students of all skill levels to explore the athletic opportunities available and participate in the season. Some teams are open to beginners while others may need to limit rosters through tryouts. Please be aware that cuts are possible and that spots on a team are not guaranteed from year to year. The school's intention is to include as many students as will allow for a quality program to exist.
Students in grades 7-12 are eligible for Varsity teams, and grades 6-8 are eligible for Middle School teams. Middle School students who qualify to move up to a JV or Varsity level will only be allowed to do so with parent permission.
For the health and safety of student-athletes, sports physicals are required each year. An athlete must have this done before beginning practice with a team. The Sport Participation History and Physical Form and the Concussion Form are available on the Magnus Health account. A copy of the Sport Participation History and Physical Form is available to download from the Parent/Student Portals and must be signed by a physician.
Game schedules will be published on the athletic calendar when finalized.
