Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to attend each tryout session?
Yes. The more the coaches see an athlete, the better her chances of making a team.

Are there cuts?
The number of athletes trying out for each specific sport will determine if there are cuts.  Coaches can carry a limited number of athletes on each team. Historically, the running sports do NOT have cuts (Cross Country, Winter Track, and Spring Track and Field).

Can I try out for more than one sport?
No, an athlete can only try out for one sport per season. In the event an athlete does not make her first choice sport, she has the option to join the season’s running sport (Cross Country, Winter Track, and Spring Track and Field).

Is there transportation to offsite venues for practices and games?
Yes.  Once school begins, we do provide transportation to the Dedham pool or fields that we use for practice during the weekday.
