Pickleball Tournament...

This week in class we started our Pickleball tournaments. Each class is playing in a double elimination, doubles tournament. Students choose their teammate that they will be working with and then the games begin. Even if you lose the first game, you can still work your way through the consolation bracket and get back to the championship game. We will be wrapping up tournament play the week before Spring Break.

Just a reminder for students trying out for any Spring athletic team....you must have a physical on file in the office before tryouts begin.

Girls Soccer: March 23rd and 24th
Boys Soccer: March 23rd and 24th
Girls Softball: March 23rd and 24th
Boys Volleyball: March 24 and 25th

Have a great weekend!
