TCAPS Middle School fall sports: registration open! Deadline August 1
We have an MHSAA cooperative agreement with TCAPS (6th-8th years), and also participate in TCAPS sports with our Elementary (2nd-5th) sports teams. A few items to note:
- Registration is now open for Middle School, and the Registration Deadline for fall sports is Friday, August 1st.
- Please note registration closes two weeks earlier than in years past!
- Late registrations (if accepted) will be subject to a $25.00 late fee.
- Non-TCAPS students should select the appropriate enrollment rate option provided in the drop-down list for each sport (shared time, non-shared time, MHSAA coop).
- Rates vary by sport (i.e the coop fee for cross country is less than the coop fee for football).
- Reduced rates are not available for non-TCAPS students.
- The first date for fall practices is Monday, August 25th. Many details are currently listed as TBD, but we will post updated information as soon as it becomes available.
Please check the LEAP website for schedule updates, or direct parents to the coach contact information provided on the website for sport-specific questions. www.tcaps.net/programs/leap/
Registration information for elementary fall sports will be released next month, and registration links will go live no later than August 1. More information to follow.
