Greetings McCluer North Students and Families,

We are fast approaching the fall season. August 8th is the first day of practice for fall sports. If you are interested in playing a sport please reach out to the head coach listed below and make sure that you turn in all required forms as soon as possible.  The Sports that we will have for fall are: Football, Boys Soccer, Volleyball, Girls Tennis, Boys Swim, Softball, Boy & Girls Cross Country Girls Golf, Pom pon and Cheerleading. 

Our new head volleyball coach is Gregory Franklin. Coach Franklin brings a wealth of experience and we are excited to have him on board. Coach Franklin's contact information is below.    

All Athletes will be required to follow current COVID protocols and procedures per district guidelines. Coaches will have the latest COVID updates.

Required Forms

1. Valid sports physical - If you played sports last year and you are unsure if your physical is still valid please email us and we will check the status of your physical. The blank form is attached below with some suggestions on where to get a physical quickly. Physicals can be turned into the athletic office or emailed to kcurtis@fergflor.org and dgrogan@fergflor.org. 

 2. MSHSAA Pre-Participation & COVID Release Form - This form must be fully completed with current insurance information.  All fields must be completed or it will not be valid and will be returned in order to fully complete all missing areas.  Please make sure to read through the packet carefully before turning it into the athletic office. This form is now available online as well through parent TylerSIS and is called  New - MSHSAA Pre-Participation Documentation. 

Along with the requirements above MSHSAA requires all students to maintain academic eligibility in order to be involved in extracurricular activities. The requirements state that all students must earn credit for seven out of eight classes during the previous semester (incoming freshmen are exempt for the fall semester only). 

The contact information for our coaching staff is listed below.  If you have any questions please contact the coach of the activity that you wish to take part in or the athletic office.
