Paperwork Due Mid August for Fall Sports Tryouts

Tryouts for fall sports at start Aug. 20, but before students lace up their cleats and head to the field house, there's some paperwork they need to turn in, otherwise they can't play.

The athletic department will be collecting mandatory paperwork from student-athletes Aug. 15-17 at the field house. No athlete will be allowed to try out for a fall sport without proof of a valid physical exam by a physician, an academic eligibility check done by the school, a signed parental permission form and a signed previous concussion form.

The schedule for each sport is as follows:

Parental permission forms are available from all coaches, the main school office and athletic offices. For more information or if you have questions, call the Peabody High School Athletic Department at 978-536-4752.

Prior to the start of the fall season, a parent, athletes and coaches meeting will be held Sept. 5 at 6:30 p.m. in the high school auditorium. Sports participation fees will be collected then as well. Payment can be made by either check or money order -- no cash.
