SPORTS:
Wrestling practice is very Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 2-4pm in the wrestling room. You need to have a current sports physical signed by a doctor on the school’s physical form and the athletic clearance form on athleticclearance.com filled out to get cleared for practice. Wednesday, October 15, at 2pm in the wrestling room will be the first weight management check opportunity done by the school nurse. Before being able to do the weight management check, you need to get the parent permission form signed by a parent or legal guardian. You can get the forms from Coach Francis in room G-8, or in the wrestling room during practice. This is required for all wrestlers to have done before they can compete. If they miss the first check, wrestlers might not be able to compete in the first few wrestling meets of the season. Wrestling meets start the second week of November.
