ATHLETIC PRACTICES, COMPETITIONS/CONTESTS, EVENTS 
Athletic practices and most contests will be held during the week.  Practices will begin after school and end around 5:00 pm, Monday through Friday. Contest times may officially begin at 3:30pm, but may vary depending on location, weather, transportation, and duration.  You may contact our school’s office or your child’s coach to verify information at any time during school or office hours. 
 
Basketball, football, soccer, wrestling, and volleyball are divided into two or more squads: varsity and junior varsity. Basketball, soccer, and volleyball will typically have games on Tuesday/Thursdays. Wrestling, swimming, track, and cross country will have their contests on Wednesdays typically. Football game days are primarily on Fridays.  

Student-athletes will have the opportunity to play on either squad. Dual contests will typically begin with varsity matches, but be sure to confirm with the team's coach. Football varsity and junior varsity will both begin at 3:30p.m, but played in different locations (usually opposite locations). All other sports teams begin collectively at 3:30p.m.

We don't want anyone to have their personal or school items come up missing!  Coaches or activity sponsors will provide their students a list of recommended items at the beginning of each activity, sport, or season. If any issues should arise in obtaining any of these items please contact the school.

EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES THROUGHOUT THE YEAR 
Students will have the opportunity to participate in many after school activities other than sports throughout the year. If sports aren't your thing, no problem! Hopefully there is something for everyone! There is a list of clubs that meet throughout the year. Offerings will update and change throughout the year. Inquiries can made during school hours by contacting the school office. 
 
Strong academic standing and respectful behavior are expected for participation. Announcements will be made during the school day so it's important for students to listen to when their after school activity begins. Information regarding the club, organization, or activity will be sent home or made available prior to it's first day or on the first day by the activity sponsor. Many of Bryan Middle School's after school activities last longer than a semester.
