Fall Sports 2023

UPDATED 05/30/2023

Parents,

I wanted to reach out and let you know some of the procedures and policies that PMMS Athletics will put in place to keep our coaches and athletes safe this upcoming fall sports season. Please be aware that these policies and procedures are mandatory for our athletes and coaches to follow. We are following the Indiana DOE and the IHSAA recommendations, while also staying consistent with our high school. Please note that these procedures and start times remain tentative based on current health information provided by the state of Indiana, the ISDH and the IHSAA. This letter is lengthy, but extremely important. Please be sure to read each section of this document. Thank you for your time and for helping us keep our coaches and athletes safe!

ALL ATHLETES MUST BE REGISTERED FOR SPORTS USING FINAL FORMS ATHLETE REGISTRATION! Any athlete who attends practice without being fully eligible in final forms will not be eligible to participate.  Final Forms

Forms that must be submitted (paper copy to the athletic office) prior to the first day of practice/participation/tryouts
