Hello Everyone,
Welcome to Middle School Spring Sports! Just a quick reminder that our middle school sports programs will begin today (Tennis will begin on Tuesday, April 4th). I am very excited for the upcoming season. If you have not already registered your student please be sure an up to date physical has been provided to the school nurse (if your child has already played a sport this year most likely their physical is OK).
Here is some information that may be helpful:
~ Practices: MS practices will begin typically at 3:30pm and run until 5/5:15pm (occasionally a team will end earlier)
~ Games/Meets/Matches: All are scheduled to begin 3:45pm, however sometimes an opponent or a Weston team will not arrive in time for a scheduled start due to a late arrival, etc.
~ Buses: There will be both a Boston & Weston bus at 4:30pm as well as a 5:30pm Weston & 6pm Boston late bus. For games/meets/matches Weston Athletics will provided transportation to all away contests. Student-Athletes are expected to travel to and from contests on the provided transportation with their team. Should there be a time where a student-athlete needs to leave an away contest with a parent/guardian an email has to be sent to your child’s coach and Athletic Director Mike McGrath at least 24hrs. prior to the away contest.
~ Away Contest: Should your child be playing away, there is a very likely chance our team will not return back to Weston in time for the late Weston/Boston bus due to unforeseen traffic, late starts, etc.
~ Locations: Baseball – MS Baseball Field, Softball – Varsity Softball Field, Tennis – MS Tennis Courts & Track – Proctor Field Track
~ Schedules: Practice schedules will be provided by each coach. Game/Meet/Match schedules will be available at the following link: Athletic Schedules (Note: Tennis will be available within the next week)
~ One day each week every team will have an “off day”. Off days will be determined by each coach and communicated to the team.
