Participation and Fee Requirements

We are excited to welcome and support athletes who are interested in participating in our programs. These are fun opportunities for our students to build connections at school and to be part of an active team after school hours. In order to participate, fee payments and all required documentation are required before a student athlete can participate.  Please carefully review the information provided below regarding participation and fee requirements. All fees and required paperwork must be submitted in order for the athlete to participate.

For Cut Sports (volleyball, field hockey, basketball, dance):

Fees will be assessed to athletes by the district on the day that teams are selected. Families then have 48 hrs from that time to secure a spot on the team by paying the athletic fee.  If the fee is not paid, then it is understood by all parties that the family will forfeit the position and "next up" athletes will be granted the position for that athletic year. 

*Students who qualify for financial assistance will not lose their spot as long as they show proof of need and communicate that to Margie Karabas (karabasm@wilmette39.org) at the district office.  This will then be conveyed to all parties so they do not lose a position on a team.

Our student-athletes have busy schedules, and we know that they may not be able to attend every practice or match.  Please communicate with the coach ahead of time regarding schedule conflicts. 

Practice Pick-up and Late Bus:

• Parents are asked to promptly pick students up on the north side "front" of HMS at 4:50pm each day of practice.

Transportation to away matches:

• A one way bus will transport the team to away matches.
