Winter Sports Registration 
Winter Sports Registration is open, Boys Basketball, and Girls Softball!!!! Registration will close Friday, October 13th. The registration date will not be extended. If your child is currently participating in fall sports the only step you need to take is to complete the Registration form but you do not need to upload a sports physical as this is good for the whole school year. If you are registering your child for the first time, your child is required to have an updated sports physical and transportation form on file. You may register without having a completed physical and transportation form. Students must have physicals and transportation forms turned in before they are allowed to participate when practice begins on October Monday, October 23rd. Practice times are always right after school and games 99% of the time start at 4:00pm.

Volunteer Coaches!!! Please email elizabethbaker@olmcschool.info if you are interested in coaching or assisting coaching in the Winter.
