Eagle Valley Middle Athletics

Dear EVMS Families-

At EVMS we believe that participation in athletics and activities are a fundamental part of the middle school experience. All our of teams are open to 6th, 7th, & 8th grade students. Whether you are a seasoned athlete or jumping in for the first time, we offer both competitive & developmental opportunities. Additionally, we aim to foster a positive experience that promotes social growth, teamwork, skill development, and is FUN. We strive for an athletic program that has clear communication and models good sportsmanship.

Thank you for your continued support of EVMS! Go Pirates!

Kim Spalding, Assistant Principal & Athletic Director

The ECSD transportation department works tirelessly to assist in meeting all of our needs for athletics and we truly appreciate them and their efforts. We always do our best to provide bus transportation to our away games. However, we are experiencing a driver shortage and it is a challenge to meet all of our needs right now.

In the event that you are unable to transport your own child, the following steps needs to be taken.
Consent form for students to ride in private vehicle:

• Consent (English)
• Spanish Form

Forms for drivers to complete to transport students in their private vehicle

• Drivers must also submit a copy of their Driver's License & a copy of their insurance card- Driver Permission

All athletes must complete the following registration paper work annually:

• All students participating in sports are required to fill out and submit the EVMS Athletics Participation Forms Packet to their coach or the school office by the end of the first week of any sport's season. Once this packet is complete and on file in the school office it is good for subsequent sports seasons in that same school year.

  • The Physical should be signed and dated by a physician and is good for 365 days. If the year lapses before the end of the season a new physical form must be completed to continue participation. Please call the Front Office to verify if you think that your athletes physical hasn't expired. The physician may use their own form if they choose, but please ensure that the student's name and the date of the exam is clearly listed. Need a physical sheet to have signed? Feel free to print and use this one.

  • Please know that BOTH the athlete and the parent/guardian must both understand the No Contact Agreement and the Sports Contract. Fees help us to absorb the costs associated with service, supervision, supplies, equipment, and transportation. Fees are due along with this completed packet, turned in to the office. If you are trying out for a sport, your payment will be held and refunded to you if you do not make the team.

  • If you are unable to pay the fee or need to pay at a later date please contact the school office (970) 328-8910. Please do not let this fee discourage you or your child from participating in EVMS Athletics. If your child receives free or reduced fee status, please see the office staff to see if that includes athletics & activities.

• 
  
  There is a $50 fee per sport ($75 football). These fees will be accessed in PowerSchool, payable by Credit Card.
