All students interested in participating in middle school athletics, need to get some things done to be eligible. To participate in conditioning for football, softball, and cheer, which have a starting date of no earlier than Aug. 1, but will be determined by the head coaches, all students must have a valid physical exam and a concussion awareness form(for the 23-24 school year). Use the directions provided on the TMS athletic webpage to join Bigteams and submit the forms electronically. All forms except the physical can be done online, and the physical exam will be uploaded into Bigteams, then approved. Students interested in playing any sport should go ahead and get this done now and be covered for the whole school year. Any student already in Bigteams can look in their account and check their physical date to see if it is valid during their season. Physicals are valid for 13 months.

Contact the head coach for further details on conditioning:
