Get involved in a winter sport starting in October

Parents/guardians of winter student-athletes, Winter sports will be starting soon. Before your child can participate, they will need a valid KHSAA physical. The KHSAA physical document requires a doctor's examination. Physicals are valid for one year and 30 days from the date of the doctor’s examination. Your child will also need a trainer release form. Some winter sports have been doing conditioning activities, but most winter sports do not officially begin until October 15. Below is information about our winter sports, their coaches, and when they are having tryouts or their first official practice. All practices are at BCHS unless otherwise noted.
