TRANSCRIPT
WHEN IS THE OFFICIAL 1ST DAY OF 2017 FALL TRY-‐OUTS? Monday, July 31 Anyone interested in trying out for any Fall sport is expected to be at the designated try-‐out site ready to practice on Monday, 7/31 as well as throughout the entire evaluation period. Each athlete should come
prepared with weather/sport appropriate clothing and equipment (cleats, sticks, shin guards, etc). It is also imperative that you bring your own LOCK to enable you to secure your personal valuables. If there is an unavoidable conflict that prevents attendance, the coach should be contacted prior to the athlete missing
practice!
FALL SPORTS INCLUDES: Boys & Girls Cross Country, JV/V Field Hockey, 9th/JV/V Football, Golf and JV/V Volleyball
PRACTICE STARTS BEFORE CLASSES BEGIN? Yes, the 1st day of Fall practice is established by the VHSL and is the same for all VHSL (public) schools across the state. The 1st day of school for ACPS students is Tuesday, August 22. Pre-‐school practice times are listed at the end of this document. Please know that anyone interested in trying out should adjust their summer schedule accordingly. If there is an unavoidable conflict that prevents attendance, the coach should be
contacted prior to the athlete missing practice!
What kind of paper work is required? 1 . CURRENT PHYSICAL ON FILE: In compliance with VHSL rules, before any student can try out or
participate in conditioning or sports team, they MUST have a CURRENT ATHLETIC PHYSICAL on file in the Athletic Office dated since May 1, 2017. Physical forms can be downloaded from our website or picked-‐up
from the Athletic Office.
2. REGISTER ON-‐LINE AS AN ATHLETE: Completing the on-‐line registration form minimizes parents/students from having to fill out duplicate and multiple layers of paper work. Since this information provides
emergency and medical info, it is key that you are specific with which sport you are trying-‐out. For example, our Spring coaches can not obtain information if a student only registered as a Fall Football player but is
now trying out for Spring Soccer.
HOW DO TRY-‐OUTS WORK? The evaluation process begins on this first day and will continue until the final team selections are made. Depending on the number of students, sport or weather, “try-‐outs” could take 3 days or 2 weeks. During this evaluation period, a variety of tests, drills, tools and game-‐like situations are used to measure each
athlete’s performance ability in the most objective and measureable manner possible.
Can an 8th grader try-‐out for an Albemarle team? An 8th grader can only make an AHS team if a 9th or 10th grader is not cut. Due to numbers, not all sports are able to take 8th graders. Please check with your coach before you pay for a physical or plan to try-‐out. Any 8th grader that is on a sport must be prepared to provide their own transportation from their middle school
to AHS for away games where an early dismissal is required.
WHEN & WHERE DO PRACTICES TAKE PLACE? During the sports season, practices are held Monday-‐Friday (occasionally on Saturdays) and typically run
from 3:50-‐6:15pm. The practice times could vary based upon coach's discretion. For Sport specific questions and info, please contact your coach. (See below)
PRACTICE SITES: B/G XC @ Albemarle and Panorama Farms; 9/JV/V Football @ Albemarle; JV/V Field Hockey on Lambs Road Field (on right as you go down to Jouett MS), Golf @ Birdwood Golf Course;
JV/V Volleyball at Albemarle Gym
WHAT’S UP WITH SUMMER CONDITIONING? Each ALBEMARLE sport may offer 10 days of optional sport specific training in the Summer. They may also offer unlimited opportunities for conditioning (weight training, cardio, etc). Participation in these work-‐outs
are not required and have no influence on a student’s status on the team. This is simply an OPTIONAL opportunity for those interested to get in shape and improve their skills. Where, when and if these work
outs take place vary depending on the sport.
VHSL requires anyone trying out for an AHS SPORT or wanting to participate in conditioning MUST have a current physical on file dated since May 1, 2017.
