Hello Northside Families,
We apologize for the lengthy email but we wanted to send all of the spring sports tryout information in one email. We are happy to announce that we have added a Middle School Boys soccer team, a Varsity softball team, and a Middle School baseball team. The dress for all tryouts will be Northside approved attire for practicing sports.
As a reminder no one can tryout unless they have been approved through our online service; planetHS/Big Teams. This is a company we use to help us store all permission forms, waivers and physicals for each athlete. Please use these links to help you with your athletes accounts: Coach McLemore is the contact to help you with your paperwork, kmclemore@ncak12.org
