Returning high school students and incoming freshmen,

As we close out this school year, it's time to start thinking about the next fall season of Pirates athletics.  This has been another exciting and thrilling year, and we can't wait to get started in the fall!  We look forward to you being a part of the exciting Pirates family, so read on to find out how you can be part of the excitement and be prepared to participate on day one!

Included is information for sport offerings this fall.  Since most of these offerings begin before the school year starts, we wanted to get this information to you before you leave for summer.

While different sports might have summer open gyms, camps or contact days, these dates below are the official season start dates.  For summer opportunities, please contact the specific sport coach.

Requirements

Athletic Registration

Every athlete needs to be registered with the Athletic Department office before participating in athletics.  All registration is done online at https://pewaukee-ar.rschooltoday.com/.  You can also find this link by going to our Athletics/Activities website > Activity Registration.  Every athlete, along with their parent/gaurdian, will need to complete the registration process which includes reading and electronically signing documents as well as uploading a physical, if needed.  Within two weeks of starting the season, a $50 fee will be assessed to your Skyward account. If your student plans on playing multiple sports please select them all on the one registration.

3 requirements for participation - athletes can not participate in practice until ALL three are completed.

1. Current Physical (physicals are good for 2 school years)
2. Online Registration
3. $50 Athletic Fee 

Physical - Preparticipation Physical Examination

Athletes are required to have sports physicals on file with the Athletic Department prior to the first practice. Failure to do this results in ineligibility to participate in try-outs, practices or games.

Sports physicals are required by the WIAA every two school years. Physicals taken after April 1 are valid for the following two school years; physicals taken before April 1 are valid only for the remainder of that school year and the following school year. 

Physicals need to be uploaded into the online registration site in the athlete’s account.

Physical Form (page 4 is the main page that is needed).  Please make sure the form has all the needed signatures and dates.

Important Dates

Fall Sports Meeting August 5th at 6pm in the HS auditorium.

This meeting is for all fall athletes and parents.  There will be a general session with a presentation by the Athletic Director and then there will be sport-specific parent/athlete meetings for each sport.  Please plan about 1 ½ hours.

Fan Camp August TBD

Fan camp will be back again this year.  Students will be invited to attend a fan camp session in the football stadium prior to our first game.  Students will receive tshirts and pizza in a fun, relaxed environment while learning how we can be the best student section we can be.  More information will come out during the summer.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.  We hope you have a great summer!

Sincerely,

Jeff Behrens, CMAA

          "Building Better People Through the Athletic Experience"

          "The Pewaukee Athletic Department strives to be a leader by shaping values and developing characteristics that 
          promote lifelong excellence through athletic participation and competition. We will develop skills in our student
          athletes to compete, commit, contribute, connect and care."

          "Our goal is to plan, prepare, and play the game in pursuit of the win. However, our purpose is to build better
          people through the athletic experience. We will do this by teaching our students the skills and characteristics
          necessary to compete, commit, contribute, connect and care. We are a true extension of the classroom where sport
          is the curriculum and skills like perseverance, accountability, leadership, respect, etc. are the life lessons.
          We will pursue our goals with tenacity while living out our purpose"
