Fall 2024 Rollout
New school year. Fall season returns. It's here - Welcome to the Middle School Sports Program!

Tryouts
Tryouts for fall will take place in late August. There are a total of four tryout dates per sport. JAMS and LMS will each host two tryout dates. See fliers below for tryout dates and times.

Athletes may attend a maximum of two tryout dates for the best chance to make a team.
Tryout spots are limited, so be sure to sign up right away!

Team selection will be announced 10 school days after the last tryout date. Email notifications will be sent to youth who did and did not make the team.
