Winter Sports Season Starts Today!
Paperwork deadline is today in order to tryout/practice. Paperwork includes the NUSD Athletic Release form (including proof of a physical (dated after July 1, 2010) and proof of insurance), Donation form and Code of Conduct. Students that played a fall sport will most likely have submitted this information previously but still need receive their "yellow slip" to be cleared to tryout/practice. Fall Sport players that are still "in season" (meaning they have remaining games to play .. regular season, playoffs, NCS) must remain with their fall teams and CANNOT play/practice with their Winter sport team until their "season" is over. Any questions, please contact Craig Pitti or the main office. |
