Sports Department — Mar 2, 2023

27th February - 3rd March 2023, Week 5, Term 1

Term 2 & 3 Sports Teams.

Once registrations close and trials are completed, teams will be named on a Friday after 4.30pm on the school web site under Team Lists.

Please note a lot of time and effort goes into selecting teams. We do our best to get teams right. Once the teams are made up, if a child pulls out it can leave a team short, cause players to be swapped about in teams and a lot of work administratively both at school and at association level. It can even mean a team has not got enough players to compete in the competition for the season.

Therefore fees will not be reimbursed to students who don’t make their choice of team in their chosen code or who no longer want to play and who then choose to withdraw.

Basketball 

Important Notice: ALL players need to wear MOUTH GUARDS when playing basketball. This includes Leisure Centre teams, from term 2 mouth guards will be compulsory.

Registration for Sport

Please find all the information and links to register on the web page. There are several tabs along the top of the pages. If you click on the 'fees and registration' tab this will take you to information on registering your child on the MyKindo app. MyKindo needs to be updated once a year with your child's year and class (especially if your child is moving from Primary to MS). If your information is not updated you may miss out on vital information. If you are having trouble with anything on the mykindo registration page please click on the ? on the top right of the mykindo page and their help desk will be able to assist you. We apologise but the TIC or Sports Dept are unable to help with issues on the mykindo registration page.

Please note we cannot guarantee any players who are late to register places in teams.
