Requirements for Participation in the MSK Athletic Program
A. Athletic Card
Students participating in athletics at the Middle School of the Kennebunks must turn in a completed athletic card to the Athletic Director prior to participation in any athletic activity. This form includes:
1. Parent or guardian signature allowing participation in the athletic activity.
2. Parent or guardian proof of adequate insurance coverage. If the student is not insured by a family insurance policy, school insurance is available at the student’s expense.
3. A physical examination after June 15 for the following school year. Athletes need to make an appointment with his/her family physician at his/her expense before participating in a practice. Proof of examination must be annotated on the athletic card and signed by the attending physician. (A doctor may sign off on a student’s physical form by agreeing that there is no need for an exam this year and that the prior years’ exam will fulfill this year’s needs.)
4. Physical exams are not required to participate in Intramural sports at the Middle School of the Kennebunks.
B. Co-Curricular Eligibility Standards
Co-curricular activities are an integral part of school life. The knowledge of skills learned through these activities are critically important to the healthy development of students. Students need to be passing all subjects. Athletes will be allowed to continue to practice while making up failing grades.
A student who is failing any subject at mid-term reporting time or report card time will become ineligible for a period of two weeks (10 school days). During this two-week period, students are on academic probation. They may continue to practice but are not allowed to participate in games or meets. If at the end of this probationary period, the student has improved their academic standing and is now passing, the student is once again eligible for full participation. If a failing grade(s) remains, the student will be removed from the team roster.
Season
Students will be allowed to represent, practice, and compete for the Middle School of the Kennebunks in only one sport per sports season.
Uniforms
An athlete is not eligible to participate in another athletic season until their uniform from the previous sport has been turned in to the athletic director. If uniform is lost, payment must be made to the AD for a replacement.
Practice & Game Policy
Athletes are expected to attend all scheduled practices and games. Coaches will have the right to withhold playing time for unexcused absences. We ask the cooperation of parent/guardian in assisting the athlete in making this commitment. Unexcused absences will be left to the discretion of the coach.
Attendance Policy
Regular school attendance is required of all students. A student absent from school for any part of the day of a competition or practice shall not participate unless approved by the MSK Athletic Director or Assistant Principal. Athletes serving a detention that conflicts with a scheduled game or practice will not be able to participate.
In School or Out of School Suspensions
Students suspended in or out of school will not be able to participate in practice or a game during day/s of suspension.
Substance Abuse
See District Substance Abuse Policy
Sportsmanship
Students are expected to represent the Middle School of the Kennebunks in a positive manner both home and away.
Tardiness
Students are expected to be in school on time. Students must arrive to school prior to the beginning of 3rd block (9:38 Mon,Tue,Thr & Fri—10:36 on Wed) in order to be eligible for athletic participation.
Traveling
To an Event: All students are expected to travel to athletic contests on the transportation provided by the district. Exception: A written request from a parent/guardian must be presented to, and receive approval of, the athletic administrator prior to the time of departure.
From an Event: All students are expected to travel back from athletic contests on the transportation provided by the district. Exception: At the request of a parent/guardian, the student may be released directly to the custody of the parent/guardian, as long as the parent/guardian provides a written note to the coach.
Athletic Team Selection - TRYOUTS
There is an evaluation period scheduled for each sport; however, the need for selection or cutting is determined by each individual sport and the number of students trying out.
All athletes not selected for a team will be talked to individually by the coach and encouraged to try out for another athletic team or to participate in the intramural program.
There are also other sports activities offered outside of the school. For more information on what is available, contact Kennebunk Parks and Recreation at 985-6890 or Kennebunkport Parks and Recreation at 967-4304.
Intramural Program
Our intramural program provides an opportunity for the Middle School students to engage in sports with their peers. The focus of the intramural program is to have fun and play games. Teams are selected from those students who sign up. A schedule of 2 to 3 games a week is provided by the intramural coordinator. Intramural teams do not have practice time or formal instruction. All intramural programs are from 2:15 to 4:00 PM. Students participating in intramurals have access to our late buses.
Athletic Trainer
Although all safety procedures are taken to avoid injuries, athletic participation always comes with risk of serious injury. In an effort to keep your child safe, we are fortunate to have an athletic trainer available for our students. Direct service and coverage of MSK events is limited. However, the trainer is available for consultations through the high school athletic office (985-1115).
Athletic Director
The District Athletic Director’s office is located at the High School in the gym lobby. However, Doug Perley serves as the Middle School Athletic Director and any questions concerning the Middle School Athletic Program should be directed to him at 467-8004.
