8th Grade Basketball

Try outs :

In order to try out for the basketball team you first need a physical on file. 8th graders must sign up with Mr. Grimm. The tryouts will consist of basic drills for dribbling, shooting, rebounding, and sprints. If you did well and are a possibility for the team you will be called back on the second day to scrimmage, and on the third day if you are not cut you've made the team. Tryouts are in October. If you make the team then there will be an athletic fee, and the season last from November thru January. For games 8th graders will play first for the first half of the season, and the 6th and 7th graders play first in the second half of the season until the playoffs.
