The Knights Athletic Department will host a Sports Kickoff Meeting on Tuesday, July 22, from 6:00-7:00 PM in the school gym. Information will focus on fall sports, but will be comprehensive for all middle and high school sports throughout the school year. Since the school will be joining the NC High School Athletic Association (NCHSAA) on July 1st, it will be important for all parents/guardians and student-athletes to attend the meeting to be well informed about NCHSAA rules and regulations in addition to the athletic department and team expectations, procedures and rules. Fall sport coaches will be available to answer questions at the meeting as well as Athletic Director Clint Fields and school administration. High school fall sports practices will begin on Friday, August 1. Chatham Charter will offer boys' and girls' cross country, boys' soccer, girls' tennis, and girls' volleyball. Students interested in participating should watch the Chatham Charter website and listen for a SchoolMessenger announcement(s) in late July. Rising ninth graders are automatically eligible to play; rising tenth and eleventh graders must have been in attendance 85% of the spring semester and have passed three of four spring semester courses. Middle school sports will begin after the beginning of the new school year. (The first student day of the 2014-2015 school year is Tuesday, August 12.) Details will be available at that time. |
