Summer Sports Camps 

Our Basketball Camp was a huge success and the K-5 Kingfishers learned a lot.  Three (3) exciting sports camp opportunities remain and there is still space available.  Sign-up and share with others in the community.


Spirit Wear/ PE Uniforms

Our 2023-24 Athletics Spirit Store is now open with some really cool new gear and new designs. Show your Kingfisher pride and support Athletics at the same time!


This school year, we are requiring Upper School students to dress out and wear PE uniforms.  Uniforms can be found in the store as well.  Does your Lower or Middle School want to represent as well?  They can order the uniform tee and shorts as well!

Final Forms (Athletic Physical Packet)

We are using Final Forms to facilitate all our athletics paperwork, waivers, etc. To ensure their child can participate, parents of athletes are required to create an account and complete the necessary paperwork. This platform allows families to complete forms electronically, provides immediate access to athlete information for coaches, and sends reminders to families when paperwork is set to expire.  Please visit the link below to register.  Final Forms user instructions can be found here.

Lacrosse  

Lacrosse is coming to IC Imagine this fall.  We know many students may be unfamiliar with lacrosse, but we intend to change that!  Lacrosse will function as a club sport in the fall (open to both MS and US students) to build skills with plans to field a MS team in the spring.  (US students are encouraged to participate and we intend to bring this sport into US the following year.)  Equipment will be provided, so students should not let that deter them from coming out this fall.  Lacrosse Interest Form

If your child is interested in picking up a stick before the fall, Asheville Empire Lacrosse is offering the following 2 opportunities:


Baseball

We are exploring the addition of baseball this coming Spring.  We have several students who play and believe there may be enough interest for a team.  Baseball Interest Form 


Letterman Jackets

We are now offering letterman jackets for individuals to showcase our school and school spirit, as well as any personal achievements in athletics, academics, or activities. These jackets will be available for purchase during our Open House on  8/3, 8/4 to all Middle & Upper School students.  We are exploring options for Lower School students.
