Tryouts
Tryouts for spring will take place in early March. There are a total of 3 tryout dates for sports offered this season. LMS and JAMS will host tryout dates. See fliers below for tryout dates and times.

Athletes may attend a maximum of two (2) tryout dates for the best chance to make a team. 
Tryout spots are limited, so be sure to sign up right away!

Team Selection
- Team selection will be announced 10 school days after the last tryout date. First round of email notifications will be sent to youth who made the team in order for them to start practices and team connection with their coach.  Once the first round of notifications is complete, we will send another round of email updates to the student athletes who did not make the team within 10 school days. 

We appreciate your patience and understanding.
