Our East Middle School Girls Basketball team is still looking for a few more 6th and 7th grade girls to add to our team. (We do NOT need any additional 8th grade players.) If your daughter is interested in playing girls basketball this season, she should attend practice on Monday, Sept. 22 from 4:00-6:00 pm! Interested girls will stay after school for practice & must be picked up at 6:00 pm. A current KHSAA sports physical is required for participation.
**This additional tryout WILL be open to current 5th grade students as well. 5th grade students can be dropped off at 4:00 pm. Meet Coach Perry at the back door of the East Middle gym for entry at that time.**
