CHIME Athletics Enrichment Program
The CHIME Athletics Enrichment program is a competitive after-school sports program. We compete against neighboring schools, working on developing sports-specific skills such as strategies, fitness, and sportsmanship. This program is open to all students in grades 4th- 8th.
Those who participate in the program must maintain the responsibility of being a scholar, leader, and athlete. Practices and games are mandatory and it is important athletes show up on time with equipment on and ready to start. Emergencies and illnesses do arise; please make sure you contact the team’s coach at least 24 hours in advance prior to a practice or game.
Participants need to maintain an average GPA of 2.0 or higher with no F’s or U’s to be eligible to play in games and practices with the team. If this GPA is not maintained, it can result in removal from team activities. Grade checks will be collected weekly by the Coach. For Elementary, the participants need to maintain positive academic and behavioral habits for class. Academic and behavior checks will be collected weekly by the Coach. If academics and behavior are not maintained, it can result in removal from team activities. Unsportsmanlike conduct will NOT be tolerated by coaches, parents, or athletes and can result in loss of privileges in participating in the program.
***Following Youth Sports protocols for the league, masks are to be worn at all times during practice and competition. Covid-19 testing is required by all participants at minimum once per week and a negative test result is needed to participate in practice and games. Spectators are not allowed on campus during practice or games due to the school's Covid-19 policy. Due to Covid-19 policy, we require all participating families to provide transportation for their individual child, to and from the games. We are not organizing carpooling as we have in years past.
Communication throughout the season will be through your team’s ParentSquare page. Please make sure you are registered with ParentSquare.com. Schedules and volunteer requests will be through ParentSquare. So it is important to submit forms ASAP in order for you to receive important information from your coach.
