Dear Parents/Guardians,
I hope you and your students are enjoying a relaxing summer. The fall sports season is almost upon us and I want to take this opportunity to communicate with you some important information regarding your student’s participation in the Lurgio Middle School Athletic Program.
Lurgio Middle School offers the following sports during the fall season: girls’ volleyball, field hockey, coed tennis, coed cross country, girls’ soccer, and boys’ soccer. Students may only try out for one sport during a season’s try out period. There may be an opportunity to join tennis or cross country after the try out period if space allows.
Registration
Starting this fall, we are moving our registration process to FamilyID. This online platform will make registration more efficient for students and their families from season to season and year to year. You can find Family ID registration instructions [HERE].
Proof of Physical Examination
All students wishing to try out for a sport must have a valid proof of physical examination on file with the Lurgio school nurse. Physicals are valid for (2) years. Incoming 7th graders and newly registered students should turn in a copy of their physical form to the school nurse as soon as possible. You may also upload this documentation directly to FamilyID during the registration process.
ImPACT Concussion Baseline Testing - Required for Field Hockey, Volleyball, and Soccer
For students who have not completed an ImPACT Concussion Test (all 7th graders & some 8th graders), we will be holding these tests on two separate dates: August 13th from 9:00-10:00AM and August 27th from 3:30 to 4:30PM. Please choose just ONE date that works best for you and register in FamilyID [HERE].
If you cannot make the test on either day, you may schedule a time through this [LINK] to take the test with the Safe Sports Network. They can be contacted at (603) 627-9728. For 8th graders who had an ImPACT test in 7th grade, you DO NOT have to take another test. They are valid for two years.
