Hello Everyone!

I hope you all are enjoying a wonderful summer! As we move past the halfway point of the summer, I wanted to send out the most important dates of the Plato Sports League for the ENTIRE 2024 - 2025 School Year. These are obviously subject to change based on several factors, but the dates listed below are your guideline for now. Please note the deadlines for paperwork and registration payments. Your child will not be permitted to participate in that sport if you miss the deadline for registration fee and registration paperwork.

**A CHANGE THIS YEAR - SPORTS PHYSICALS MUST BE TURNED IN PRIOR TO TRYOUTS. IF YOUR REGISTRATION AND PHYSICALS ARE NOT COMPLETED PRIOR TO TRYOUTS, YOUR CHILD WILL NOT BE PERMITTED TO PARTICIPATE. THIS ALIGNS US WITH STATE STANDARDS**

You can find the physical attached below. There will be more communication coming as to where to turn in the Sports Physical and how to complete the registration for sports.

As always, if you have any questions, please feel free to email me at: athletics@platoacademy.net
