Windham Middle School is a part of the Tri-County Athletic League. All parents and students should read the Student-Athlete Handbook prior to the season for all policies at Windham Middle School.
For the upcoming fall season all students trying out for any sport will need to have a completed parent consent form when by the first day of tryouts. A hard copy of the form can be brought on the first day of tryouts or dropped off at WMS during summer hours. An electronic copy of the form can be sent to Mr. Moyer at anytime prior to tryouts beginning. Students will not be allowed to try out if a copy of the parent consent form is not turned in on time and can impact their chance of making the team.
All students that make a middle school team must have a completed physical in the past 13 months in order to participate in practices and games for the teams they play for. Physical forms can be dropped off at WMS during summer hours or sent to Mr. Moyer electronically. If a copy of the student's physical is not on file or their physical expires, they will not be allowed to participate.
If you have any further question, please do not hesitate to e-mail Mr. Moyer at [email protected] .
Sincerely,
Kevin Moyer
WMS Director of Athletics
