Bishop O'Connell will be fully participating in the rescheduled fall sports season starting with tryouts next Monday, Feb. 15. This will involve all fall sports and will allow for the mixing of cohorts during after school practices and games. As we communicated last week, our athletics team is committed to ensuring that appropriate health mitigation strategies, protocols and personnel are in place to meet these new challenges.
Please note these points:
- Each sport will have three days of tryouts.
- Students must contact the head coach if planning to attend, even if the student has already attended an open workout session.
- Student athletes planning to play a No Cut sport (cross country/football) must also contact the coach to register for practice.
- Deadline to contact coaches for tryouts is Sunday, Feb. 14 at 3 p.m.
- Attendance will be recorded each day.
- Buses will not be available. Students must get to and from practices and games on their own.
- No spectators will be allowed.
- All student athletes need an up-to-date physical dated after June 1, 2020 and consent form uploaded through our Magnus Health system.
- The physical form can be accessed HERE.
- The deadline to submit these forms for tryouts/practices is Sunday, Feb.14 at 3 p.m.
