Tue Aug 4 20:29:43 PDT 2015

Note from E-tree Moderators – We are re-posting the 2 announcements we sent
out yesterday & the day before (the only announcements sent out since June
2015) because our Digest subscribers did not get them. 

PLEASE do not reply to this email, contact athleticdirector at berkeley.net 

Important Athletic Information

Berkeley High School Fall Sports start in a few weeks!  

In order to be eligible to tryout for Fall sports, ALL athletes must clear
their Athletic Packet (which includes a physical from a doctor) BEFORE
tryouts. Athletes must bring their completed packet to the Athletic
Director’s office during one of these designated times:

August 6:  11am-4pm

August 7:  12pm-6pm

August 13: 11am-4pm

August 14: 12pm-6pm

August 17: 9am-12pm

There will be “make-up” Athletic Packet Clearing after tryouts begin, but
please note that athletes who have not cleared their packets will not be
able to try-out.

Make up Packet Clearing:  August 18: 9am-12pm and August 24: 9am-12pm

Athletic Packets are available:

•On the BHS Athletics page: http://bhs.berkeleyschools.net/athletics/ 

•At the front office

•Outside the Athletic Director’s office

Other Important Information:

•It is HIGHLY recommended that you get your physical during the summer
months.  This will insure that your physical will be valid throughout the
school year.  Physicals that expire during the school year may result in the
athlete missing practices and games.

•CLEAR FOR THE YEAR – Not playing a Fall sport but may try something in
Winter and Spring?  Come clear your packet early and CLEAR FOR THE YEAR!  If
you are planning on playing ANY sports during the year we encourage you to
complete an Athletic Packet and get it cleared during our FALL packet
clearing times.  Students who clear their Athletic packet during the packet
clearing times between Aug. 6 and Aug. 17 will be ready for Fall, Winter and
Spring seasons AND will receive a special gift (while supplies last).  In
order to be able to CLEAR FOR THE YEAR, physicals must be dated after June
12, 2015.
