Please Register

If you did not early this summer, please fill out the online registration for our new mailing list. All players and parents should register.

Need Families to Host

Crook County (defending four-time Oregon 5A/4A champions) are coming for the Kent Classic on September 17th. Three years ago their district eliminated funding for all sports, so they have to raise $24,000 each season.

To help them out, we need people willing to host one or more players the evening of Friday, September 16th. Please reply to kentlakevb "at" comcast.net. Thanks

Rosters Posted

The rosters for the teams are posted on their respective pages.

Parent Meeting

There will be a meeting for all parents at 6:30pm on Wednesday, August 24th at Kentlake. At least one parent from each player family should attend. Even those "experienced hands" should attend to meet the new coach and learn about this year's Kentlake Volleyball team.

Tryouts

Tryouts start today at 3pm (until 7pm today and tomorrow). Please be on the court and ready to play volleyball at 3pm. That means gym clothes, shoes, knee pads, etc on and ready. I would suggest bringing a water bottle (with your name on it) and a snack (something easy to digest).

Registration Must Be Complete This Week

Athletic registration must be complete THIS WEEK in order to tryout on Monday. There will not be sufficient time to register on Monday.

The preferred time is during Athletic Registration Day on Thursday (9am to Noon and 1pm to 3pm), but the Athletic Office will also be open on Friday during the same times.

The ASB Cashier's office will also be open to pay your ASB fee, but that can also be done online. It should also be paid by Friday. Only the $30 ASB Fee, not the fees for parking and the yearbook, has to be paid at this time.

The $100 Athletic Participation Fee is not due until after the teams are announced.

Athletic Registration Days

All prospective players should complete registration for Kentlake Volleyball this Tuesday or Thursday, August 16th and 18th, from 9:00 to 12:00 and 1:00 to 3:00 at Kentlake. All players must complete and turn in the following:
  1. 2011-2012 District Athletic Registration Form
  2. Interscholastic Athletic Participation Information (Page 3 of above)
  3. Concussion Information (Page 4 of above)
  4. Emergency Medical Card
  5. District Preparticipation History and Physical Examination Form*
  6. Pay ASB Fee (can be done online with credit/debit card or in person with check or cash)

* All incoming high school students including all freshmen and transfer students, plus anyone whose physical is more than 24 months old, must get a new physical. So, most sophomores and seniors do not, while all freshmen and most juniors do.

All players must pay their ASB fee before tryouts. The separate $100 Athletic Participation Fee is not due until "the second Monday after tryouts" - which is, of course, Labor Day.

It is HIGHLY encouraged that all players turn their forms in on Tuesday, August 16th, so there is leeway to allow for changes or mistakes to be corrected by the 18th. The player and a parent should both attend so it is easy to get a signature if something was overlooked or a new form is needed to be filled out.

IF YOU DO NOT HAVE ALL REQUIRED FORMS IN BY AUGUST 19th YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO TRYOUT UNTIL ALL PAPERWORK IS COMPLETE. Since tryouts are only two days this year, that would put you at a significant disadvantage in making the team.
