Registering for Tryouts

Step One: Athletes signed up for the sport they were interested in so we registered them in BigTeams.  When the registration window is open, please double check that you are registered at Student Central and clicks on sport in the Dashboard. There is no submit button. Parent can also register for them as well. Please note that new students will have access to BigTeams once you get an Avenues email account.

Step Two: Athlete reads concussion policy and electronically signs confirmation in Big Teams

Step Three: Parent/Guardian complete all required health forms on Magnus, which will be made available to JV + Varsity athletes on July 21st and on August 4th for Middle School.

1. Annual physical (please note that Athletes with an expiring physical in August or September may cause a lapse in eligibility)
2. Interval Health History Form 
3. Avenues Concussion policy
4. Permission for off-site dismissal (for JV + Varsity Athletes)

Step Four: Once all steps have been completed, the Avenues team will review all completed documentation, and Athletes will receive an automatic email confirmation from BigTeams for clearance!
