Hello everyone – we are cancelling all outdoor practices today, and in addition all outdoor games and competitions originally scheduled for today will be rescheduled due to the air quality advisory.
In addition, indoor sports are advised to practice/play games with no exterior doors open for today due to the poor air quality.

JANUARY UPDATE

Posted on by
Athletics Update:
As we prepare to return to school next week, in accordance with the current health regulations and policies until further notice, there will be NO SPECTATORS at any Athletics events indoors – this includes games and practices. Only team members – coaches, sponsors, players and managers – as well as allocated members from the OFFICIALS CLUB to a particular game will be permitted inside the gyms. Also, as a continued reminder to all those involved on a team, you must continue:
  • to do your daily health checks prior to coming to school
  • if not feeling well or showing symptoms, do not attend/continue with activity
  • to sanitize hands periodically and upon entering and exiting
  • to wear masks at all times unless directly involved in the athletic activity.
We thank everyone for their patience and cooperation in maintaining these new requirements and look forward to resuming welcoming spectators in the near future
