Attendance
Students are expected to attend all team functions. Playing time is 100% at the discretion of the coaching staff. Playing time is not an expectation. Student athletes are expected to be at practice, film sessions, meetings, service projects, etc. But this does not guarantee playing time. Missed practice time for any reason can and will result in a loss of playing time.
Communication
Reach out to your athletes' coaches and register on Snap! Manage to be included on mailing list or other forms of communication. They will be your first resource. Use the designated form of communication to obtain more information about the sport your are interested in. Please email the head coach for the designated sport.
Other Documents
CPS and IHSA requires all transfer students to have a transfer submission with the school/state in order to rule on the students eligibility. This form needs to be fill out well in advance of the season that the student plans to participate in. Please reach out to your coach and school athletic director with questions or concerns.
