Middle School Athletic Policy

The joys and disappointments of competition, the satisfactions of teamwork, the beginnings of enduring friendships, and the opportunities for leadership, as well as the development of athletic skills, make sports an important part of life in Middle School. 

在中学,我们寻求保持有竞争力的团队,同时也重视参与和技能发展. 我们希望我们的学生运动员有机会参加比赛,让社区对这个项目感到自豪. 

Team Placement 

GA努力适应每个希望参加特定运动的学生. 根据参赛人数,参赛队伍可分为校队、合资队和/或第三队. 在壁球、网球和篮球中,有时有必要限制阵容的规模. In such cases, students will have the opportunity to switch to another sport, or, depending on interest and space availability, GA may offer alternatives to our interscholastic sports program.   

Our Middle School program takes a developmentally appropriate, 灵活的方法,以团队安置为基础的参与数字,每个运动每年. We look at the composition of teams and approach athletes as individuals.  

通常, GA将为每项运动提供不同的竞技水平,为学生运动员提供适当的训练和比赛时间,以达到各自的技术水平, regardless of grade level, while always keeping a student’s social development and safety in mind. 我们的教练将把运动员放在中学队,这将最好地促进他们的运动成长和技能发展.  

In the Middle School, all athletes will have a regular opportunity to compete, but equal playing time may not be possible in all sports at all levels. 

Competing at the Upper School Level

日耳曼学院为中学生提供了一个强大的中学体育项目,并采取了适当的发展, 灵活安排学生参加所在部门的运动队. 然而, 为学生运动员提供符合其技术水平的训练和比赛时间, 特殊的运动员可以要求考虑在上学校校队的花名册上的位置.  

该等许可只会在特殊情况下给予,以下情况必须属实: 

  • The student-athlete is entering eighth grade
  • 学生运动员必须证明自己有能力成为高中校队的首发球员
  • The Director of 体育运动, Assistant Director of 体育运动 for Middle School, Upper School varsity coach, Head of Middle School, 和八年级总顾问必须同意,批准是在学生的整体最佳利益,不会对他们的社会产生不利影响, 情感, 学术, or physical well-being

如果获得批准,学生必须保持他们的学习成绩和社区地位. 如果体育主任和中学校长认为对学生的健康有必要,可以暂停许可.   

家庭必须了解当前的Inter-Ac和PIAA政策,这些政策经常发生变化. If they transfer schools after participating at the varsity level, they may lose a year of eligibility in that sport.   

Regarding overnight trips, 可能需要特殊的住宿(如要求家长/监护人与MS学生一起旅行),以允许MS学生参加, 根据旅行的性质和时间长短以及住宿情况而定.  

In order to be considered, 请求必须在中学田径赛季开始前四周发送给田径主任和田径助理主任-中学.
