Boys' Athletics

Basketball Tryouts will be held at the beginning of November. Depending on what days our games are on will determine our practice days. As of now, 7th grade basketball will practice before school with a similar set up as football. Doors will open up at 5:40 for kids to come in and get their practice gear before heading to the gym to begin practice at 6 AM. 8th grade will practice until 4 PM. We will possibly have 1 to  2 tournaments during the season.  
A meal will be provided for all AWAY EVENTS ONLY. Any time we compete at Keefer, the parent/guardian will be asked to provide food for the athlete. Food/drinks can be dropped off at the front office prior to the school day ending. We may also designate a coach and a time for food to be dropped off in the back (field house) after the parking lot has been cleared from dismissal. More information will be given at our parent meetings. 
Breakfast (for 7th graders) - If you have morning practice, your coaches will give you plenty of time to get dressed and eat prior to going to 2nd period.

Game Schedules

Cross Country is done on a 2 mile course. This course is usually multi-terrain and can be at different elevations. It truly tests one’s cardiovascular endurance. Any off-season kid who wants to play basketball or soccer is required to run XC (Cross Country) but of course all athletes are welcomed. Practices are typically before school. Kids are to dress out in shirt/shorts and a comfortable pair of running shoes. Water container/bottle is highly recommended. Water cow will be available. More information about practice and meets will be provided at the XC Parent Meeting this Fall. 

Cross Country Schedules

Our goal is to provide your student athlete with the best experience possible. 
7th grade will have games on Monday evenings. They will practice Wednesday, Thursday and Friday before school with practice starting at 6 AM. Doors will open for kids to get dressed out at 5:30. We will hit the field at 5:50 to begin warming up. Stretches and warm-ups will be done before 6 so that period 1 for practice begins on time.
Our 8th graders typically have games on Tuesday. They will practice Monday after school, Wednesday and Thursday after school until 4 PM. Fridays we will workout during the period ONLY and they will be released to go home on the bus or car when the bell rings for dismissal. 
More information about practice and games will be provided at the Football Parent Meeting this Fall. 
We will provide shoulder pads, helmets, practice pants, practice jersey, mouthpiece, gameday socks/pants/jerseys. We’d like for everyone to bring their own cleats but will have a few to hand out for those in need. 
Check the Football Practice/Game Schedule and make sure that arrangements are made to drop off or pick up your child for practice and games on time.
