We'll recognize our winter senior athletes (girls basketball, cheerleading, and swimming) immediately following the Varsity Women's Basketball game, which is scheduled to tip off at 5:30pm. (We do not have any boys basketball seniors this year, so we will not be recognizing anyone from that team this Friday).

The Winter Sports Banquet will be held on Monday, February 24th at 6:30pm in the Event Center. All winter varsity athletes and their parents are invited to attend the banquet. Dinner will be served, followed by the presentation of team awards. All athletes are asked to wear "chapel/honor dress" to the banquet.

Varsity Softball Workouts
Softball workouts will be held this week on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday after school from 2:45 to 4:00 at the softball field on campus. Workouts are open to 7th-12th grade girls interested in playing softball this spring.   

Varsity Track Workouts
Varsity Track workouts are being held Tuesdays and Thursdays from 2:45 to 4:15pm. Track athletes are also encouraged to attend weight training with Coach Coble on Wednesdays after school. Student-athletes must have a current physical on file with the athletic office to participate.

Spring Sports Information & Tryouts
For those interested in trying out for baseball, softball, girls soccer, boys golf, or track this year, it is time to begin the registration process and complete your online athletic forms through FamilyID. The FamilyID registration must be completed and a current physical (signed by a doctor within the past 395 days) must be submitted for all spring athletes BEFORE tryouts begin.

Please read below for information regarding pre-season activities (if applicable), tryout dates and times, and how to register on FamilyID.

In lieu of an evening sports information meeting, we have created an informational video that you can view from the comfort and convenience of your own home. Please watch the video at the following link to ensure that you are familiar with our Athletic Department policies and are ready for the spring season: https://vimeo.com/348660093

FAMILYID REGISTRATION INFORMATION
We have partnered with FamilyID, a secure online platform for submitting all necessary information for sports participation. Families will be able to create an account, register middle school and high school students for sports each season, and digitally sign athletic forms. Sports physicals, which must be updated and signed by a doctor every 395 days, may be uploaded directly to your FamilyID account.
Each family will only need to create one FamilyID account. Multiple children can be registered for multiple sports seasons under one family account. 

Hickory Grove's FamilyID site is now open and accepting registrations for spring sports. Tryouts will be held the week of February 10th, and specific days and times for each sport can be found on the FamilyID page. Each student-athlete's online registration must be complete and sports physical must be uploaded (or submitted in person to the Athletic Office) before tryouts begin. You can begin your athletic registration now by following the instructions below:

If you previously registered a student for the fall or winter season, you should be able to select the student’s name after you click on the spring registration link.

Please be sure that the student’s physical form that was uploaded is still current (signed and dated by a doctor within the past 395 days).

The link to access Hickory Grove's FamilyID site is also available under "Athletics" on the school website. The NCISAA sports physical form is available as a PDF link on the FamilyID site. The sports physical form will need to be printed and signed by a doctor before it is uploaded to your FamilyID account or submitted in person to the Athletic Office.
