Updated March 4th
New this year:
*For the 4 sports that require tryouts (Soccer, Bordenball, Tripleball & Basketball), individual students can participate in 2 out of the 4 sports teams each year. This will allow a greater number of students the experience of being a part of a school team.
🏀Basketball (Grades 5&6)🏀
Due to the high number of students interested in participating and the limited number of spots (and coaches) available, the school's Regional Basketball Team is only open to Grades 5 and 6. We truly appreciate the enthusiasm from our Grade 4 students and look forward to future opportunities with them as they move into the upper grades. Thank you for your understanding and support.
Basketball is the current sport on the Regional Athletics menu.
The Regional Tournaments (Boys/Girls) will take place within the May 5th-7th window. Exact date(s) TBD.
Each team will consist of 15 players, rotated through multiple 5v5 games.
Teams will be a mix of grade 5 and/or 6 players. There are no mandatory numbers to meet per grade.
